9.22 (in the morning)

9.22!!!!!!! in the morning. Pottered over to say hi and have a bit of a good morning chat and then pottered here. I don't like Sundays ... well, I don't like the first half an hour of Sunday after I've woken up .. cause I have to take the bone sparing pill then wait for half an hour before I can take anything else or eat or drink anything but water .. and I have to sit up too. It's an Alendronic Acid tablet ... I'm lucky in that I don't experience any of the side effects. I take a lot less steroids than I did when I became ill too so hopefully I should be ok. The problem with it not being as effective as it could've been might've been to do with taking a calcium pill at breakfast .. half an hour after .. but calcium is apparently known to be a problem when taking this medicine .. so now I take the first one with my midday pills on a Sunday. Well ... I've decided to on all days cause that makes sure it's a routine.

What I don't like about Sundays is having to wait the half hour before the pain relief .. but there u go. As luck would have it this morning wasn't very good ... guess some of me back muscles are moving a bit .. breathing seems to be moving them more or something. Having said that .. I slept quite well last night .. took a while to get off to sleep because I was rather restless and couldn't settle .. but when I did sleep .. wasn't continually waking up. Still feel tired though.
