It was going so well until........

last night. It was going oh so well and then from nowhere I get a headache which brought me back to the days before I had my operation. I was quite concerned as I have downsized on the amount of mg of my steroids. (with the doctors advice of course)
I am trying my best to remember to take my medication, but I just cant help it if I forget. I forgot yesterday and this morning, but I did pack it in my bag and took it when I got into the office.


Hair.
I didn't get my trim on Tuesday, and the hair feels really spiky and when I rub my hand over it, it feels like tiny needles poking into the scalp.

The patch is looking bigger and bigger, but I guess it would, if the hair is growing back. I didn't get the wig from the picture, but got one similar and its taking some getting used to.  I think it suits me. 


Food:
Metal mouth returned today as well. I really think its the change in the medication. I haven't really have much cravings, but on the way to work I really fancied sausage in batter. Hmmmm. So I though. I ate on the train, no longer felt sick, then though of all the grease in my arteries, YUK! But it was I fancied and stop me from feeling sick and having the metal mouth.


SN:
Its getting worse. If anyone would like to know what it feels like to have SN: 
Fill a large bowl with cold water. 
Add a tray of ice cubes
Put hand in bowl for 10 seconds.
Take hand out and shake dry.
Is your hand cold yet? 


That's the feeling 70% of the time.
Even when im in the bath, one side is hot and the other cold.


Another experiment:
Fill a cup with a nice cup of tea.
Place an Ice cube on one side of your mouth.
Drink the tea.


Feel the weird sensation? 
Join my club.


Skin:
It not too bad. I haven't felt any itching or aggravation.


Life is what YOU make it. Make it GREAT.
