That sounds oddly tasty, Ellen. Sort of comfort food with an inbuilt-nap feature! It’s very nearly Hygge and that’s all the rage just now. You are terribly fashionable and hipsterish and you didn’t even know it! I envy you having access to it. It’s entirely a gut feeling, but I can’t help thinking Cannabis would work for me, but I’m too old to go out scoring street drugs! It’s time Britain caught up with the rest of the civilised world on this one.
Never too old to try and relieve pain.
But did not knock me out today.
darn
In just want to sleep the times that I am in pain/And considering my pain goes down to a 4 for an hour after my meds and then back up to 9 I spend as much time as I can pacing or sleeping and with the minus 30 in Canada right now-sleep is my only respite.
Hoping your pain stays away.
Minus 30? Good lord, I don’t envy you that. I know my mouth gets a lot more shocky and sensitive in cold weather (plus the additional problem of going into heated houses and shops afterwards - that causes me more pain than the reverse, almost). I have seriously considered moving abroad to warmer climes just so that the up and down of TN would be lessened. How about you - never considered moving somewhere with a more equable climate?
LOL
I have been dancing as fast as Io can to stay even.Moving is not on the list.I have a disabled son in assisted living-the assistance that he gets is not the greatest so I basically I am stuck.
I read somewhere that someone vacationed on a mountain and the altitude relieved the pain.
Maybe I will take a trip up the CN tower and see what happens at the top.
Now that sounds like a plan! I have visions of us moving around the world, sending each other postcards from tall landmarks. I can start at the Blackpool tower then move to the Eiffel tower and the leaning tower of Pisa. You could always do the Empire State and the Seattle Needle (is that right?). I realise that I am so ignorant of Canadian geography I can’t think of a single tall Canadian landmark. But, hey, I know you’ve got mountains. Only trouble is they are generally covered in snow so you might just be back to square one there! If I honestly thought altitude would do it I’d be off to Aviemore tomorrow!
I was up on the CN tower for my birthday and I did really well.Food tasted like crap-but I can’t remember being in pain.I was supposed to be having my first massage right now and I got a call that the woman needed to go to her doctor downtown but she would rush back and see me at 5PM.I am just lost.I said no.So you are my treatment for today.I do think we should experiment.If it did not cost so darn much to go up the tower I would do it in an instant.We have the Rocky mountains and the CN Tower.
That’s all, I think.
I could pile all the snow and stand on that.
A project to get through the next few months.
Now all I can visualise is you standing on a (very tall) pile of snow, shaking your fist at the skies and yelling some abuse at Fate/the Gods. Still, there are a lot worse ways you could deal with your pain. All things considered, we do quite well between us with our (pitch) black humour! XX
Triliptal is horrible on the Sex drive but great on reducing symptoms
Well I’m alright then - I don’t have any sex drive anyway!
I will try out the Space needle in Seatle and report back, but I don’t believe it is high enough. 
Also too expensive to spend much time there!
Thank you for your service, Ziggy; TN sufferers salute you! Even if it works for fifteen minutes you’ll be ahead. We could maybe arrange group bookings at a discount and we could all go up there in shifts.

I wonder how people feel when they are up in an airplane.Seeing my feet have not left the ground in decades I can’t give my experience on that.
I could not get the snow castle high enough to make any difference…Some girl called Elsa started pointing her finger at me so I left.
That Elsa, she’s so passive-aggressive! But the aeroplane idea has revealed where I’ve been going wrong. I’ve never been on a plane. I have no other option now than to become a millionaire playboy and spend all my life on luxury class Arab Emirates airlines with Jennifer Aniston.
Now is Jennifer your dream date? or your dream sister?You go anyways and have fun.Not sure they let all our drugs into Saudi Arabia.
Might want to check that out first,
Ah, she’s neither Ellen - she just appeared in Arab Emirates ads here in the UK a while back. I imagine she probably didn’t in the US.
Hi There
I don’t have a TV and I don’t pay much attention to the pop up ads that come one.So there I go.
I miss out on a lot of the stuff that people pick up from TV.Weird hand shakes and all.
Just me.
Jennifer Aniston would make an awesome traveling companion.Doors would open so wide.
