There isn't really that much to report. The body seems to get used to the Ribavirin and so determines the schedule of the day. I take them at 8.30am and usually have to lie down by about 10am. I can usually tell that it is time for bed by my neck feeling like it has just received a great big whack with a tree trunk and my eyes going heavy and runny, then my mouth opens and closes in great big yawns. However, about an hours' snoozing and I can get up again. That means the first highlight of the day: going to the shop with the dog. It's a short walk, 10 minutes there, 10 minutes back, 5 minutes in the shop, but I would never have imagined that it would feel like a treat to be able to do that. Then back at home, pottering around, doing a bit of housework, stopping frequently for a rest, mainly sitting at the computer, reading in the forums and playing EarthLost. I dont even get round to having a session of GuildWars these days, dont feel that I can concentrate. At around 2pm the second highlight of the day: take Isis to the health park and feel wonderful once we have finished the round which takes about 20 minutes. I am not dead yet ... yayyyyy :-) After that, I am ready for another lay-down and/or snooze. Usually back up at 4.30pm, by which time Jessi is bound to phone any minute. Another welcome distraction, and I dont have the feeling that I have to say anything as she talks for England any way. The rest of the evening passes with cooking, a bit more cleaning, maybe half hour TV and more PC until I am so dog-tired that I fall asleep after reading a couple of pages.
However, sleep is very disrupted at the moment. At least up twice during the night for loo and water, often a cigarette too. And my dreams are vivid, disturbing images. Maybe I should start writing them down again as soon as I wake up. That might make interesting reading.
Woooohoooooo, here we go, Ribas kicking in. Off to bed .... laters taters.
