We are going out to dinner this evening to some friends of ours in the village, so this morning we go to North Walsham to buy some wine, chocolates and flowers to take our hosts.
This afternoon I occupy myself by washing my wife’s car, while my wife busies herself doing the laundry and cleaning the house.
I tire very easily these days, and cleaning the car almost finishes me off. A nice hot bath, a shave and a change of clothes makes me feel more human again. Tremor is still playing me up in my left leg, but it doesn’t seem any worse than it was last night, so I leave the settings of my neurostimulator alone (for the time being). When we go out to our friends’ house this evening, I make sure that I take my DBS remote control (or Therapy Controller) with me – just in case I need it. I don’t seem to have provoked any undesirable side effects with my three adjustments of yesterday, so that’s a positive. My other symptoms appear to be much the same as they were, so everything is bearable at the moment.
