Tuesday 5th I spent most of the day in bed sleeping as much as I could, setting a timer for each dose of breakthrough medication I was due. Mum did check that I’d taken my pills at the right times just in case I slept through and missed them. Although I was sleeping really well […]

I thought I would do a post on drugs, or should I say medication, which I thought some people may find interesting and give others a greater understanding of what I’ve been taking and the effects.
