Well had another bad day yesterday, got some new pain killers from the doctor. I took some yesterday morning and they made me high, drowsy and sleepy. I took some more at around lunchtime and the same happened. They are really good painkillers and i hd relief from the pain for the first time for a few weeks. The thing about them was i took some before bed, i was really tired anyway but these made me go to sleep quite fast. About 1am i woke up thinking i was going to die, every few minutes i would get a strange feeling almost like a hot flush running throiugh my body and my arms were tingling. I got out of bed afterabout 15 mins or more and was very unbalanced on my feet and made my way down stairs for some water. I had to sit down on my sofa for about an hour just to make myself feel a bit better. I then went back to bed about 3am or so; i fell to sleep quite quickly again and this morning woke at 6.30 and got up at 7.30. I feel a bit better today but i shall not take those pills again and shall tell my cancer nurse today what happened.
On Tuesday my weekly meeting with the senior radiologist was helpful as always. She gave me some antiseptic and pain relief liquid in a syringe type thing. I used it yesterday and it was very good, i am not sure whether it was the strong pain killers or the syringe or both but i have just applied some more now and hopefully i will feel same as yesterday without the awful effects of the pain killing drugs.
Well off for my daily zapping later: stay tuned and enjoy my blog :)
