2016-08-09 – Back on the river.

My wife has a lull in her business, so we are going to take advantage of it and spend a couple of days back on the river.  We get breakfast out of the way, load up her car and head off to our mooring at Wayford Bridge.

My tremor has gone up a couple of notches and is really bothering me now.  My wife says I’m still a bit quiet and withdrawn.  I’m going to adjust my neurostimulator by a very small amount when we get to the boat.  I feel that my mood is better than it has been, but evidently I’m just not my usual self!

We arrive at the boat, load all of our gear (and the dog) on board and then pootle down the River Ant to Barton Turf.  It’s very quiet on the river and we only pass a handful of other craft as we make our leisurely way downriver.  Once we have moored up at Barton Turf I adjust my device up by 0.05v on each side, so now I’m receiving 1.4v on the left side and 2.05v on the right.  I feel no immediate difference, but I’ll give it 24 hours and see.

A couple of hours passes and the only thing that’s changed is that I have slightly more dyskinesia in my right arm, although not troubling me too much.  I self-medicate with cannabis, and that gives me some relief from the damned tremor!
