Friday at last

What a week. Glad to get to the weekend.

Lots of driving on motorways in the rain, not much fun.

Knees are really sore today. Not just aching but sore. The pain killers don't seem to touch that. Perhaps I should up the paracetamol.

I gave a colleague some Glucosamine Sulphate to take as he has been diagnosed with the early signs of Arthritis. I told him that what I have found from taking it is that you don't feel it is doing anything until you stop taking it and then you really notice the difference.

I am still waiting for my letter from the hospital. Today I almost phoned them to ask if the letter had gone astray. Stopped myself in time. I know that I haven't been on the list long enough. It is easy to become impatient when the pain shows no signs of letting up and indeed is changing and surprising me all the time.

There are a lot of people in the country with Arthritis, some mild and some not so mild. There are also a lot of people who have been through the operation and come out the other side, pain free and perhaps even better able to get around.

I am very very busy at work and you and I both know that the busier i get the more chance there is that the appointment will come through and upset a lot of people when they have to take my work load as well as their own. That shouldn't matter i know, but it does.
