Sorry for my absence

Dear friends,

I'm sorry I've been absent from the site. I've been in bad shape of late and now I have been also suffering the effects of a nasty cold / flu bug. Plus the added effect having a cold / flu has on the TN we suffer as well. I'm back to being awake all night and sleeping the day away, mostly now I think, because it's getting colder here at night in Australia, I don't know what the equivalent temp is in fahrenheit, but in celcius it's down to 6 degrees, and it's only Autumn. My TN has never played nice in the cold. I look outside now and I see only frost and fog.

Hopefully, the sun will rise soon - it's 6:45 am here now - and begin to warm the day and then I can sleep again.

I have a scheduled appointment later today with my pain clinic doctor to revise how I'm going post bilateral PRF's. Since this nasty bug caught me early this week, I've barely stepped outside my house - but I have too today, I cannot afford to miss this appointment, takes too long to get another one.

I am terribly sorry to all my friends that i have not been around, and I will attempt to be here for you all more again from now on. I'll write back later today the results of this appointment with the pain clinic doctor and hopefully I can start catching up with you all soon.

Best wishes to all of us for a pain free day!

Love Kerry

HAVING A COLD OR WHATEVER SUXS!! I can hardly breathe for the congestion in my head. Probably what is affecting my sleep - I’m more congested at night than during the day and as I always breathe through my nose while I’m sleeping, I just can’t get off to sleep. Trying to breathe through my mouth hurts in more ways than one. And my throat hurts too :frowning: so just feeling sad and sorry for myself…

Kerry,
I’m sorry you are not doing well. Cold does cause pain. It was a very cold winter here in North Alabama. I kept a scarf around my face.
It is getting hot here. We have already had temps in the high 80s and may have already reached 90 deg. And this is north Alabama. Our cool nights are disappearing also. We will probably have a hot summer.
Please keep us posted on your treatments. I know you have had an especially hard time with TN. And you are so young. Please don’t apologize for being absent. We miss you. Hopefully you will get over the flu/cold bug soon.
