Slept right through until 7.15am, which is amazing! I’m going to Brundall with my wife this morning to collect some seat cushions from a boat – she is going to make new covers for them, and also replace some of the foam within. My wife takes the dog for a quick walk while I sit and drink more tea than is advisable just before a 1 hour trip in the car! Sure enough, my wife has to pull over half way and wait for me while I go for a pee in a field. I manage to give my head a good clout on an overhanging branch while I’m negotiating the ditch and hedge that surrounds the field, so I’m not overly happy about that!
Symptoms seem reasonably well managed this morning – pretty much as they were yesterday. We collect the seat cushions and I almost topple into the water when I lose my balance for a second. I managed to grab hold of something to arrest my fall, so I’m okay. My wife doesn’t notice, so I get away with it (until she reads this blog, and then she’ll tell me off for not telling her).
I’m wishing the day away. Tomorrow we are going back to the NHNN to see Joseph and have my device adjusted. I am really hoping that he can do something to alleviate the dyskinesia problem that I have been having. Anything else will be a bonus.
A couple of stops on the way back home to look for picture frames (we buy one) and stock up on beer (we buy more than one). My wife drops me off at home and disappears off to do another job up the road on the Gunton estate, leaving me to take the dog for her afternoon walk.
We have an early dinner when my wife returns, and then we sit with my wife’s copious notes (and my blog) and make sure that we have fully documented all of the settings that I have used on my device (along with the effects and side effects) since I last visited Joseph, so that we can give him all of this data to reference when re-programming me tomorrow!
