I’m still alive, but I’m barely breathing…

Yes, it’s true, there really is life after internet… One of these days I might even get to take part in it
There seems to be a general blogging strike going on the past few months. Hardly anybody seems to be writing much of anything, and I have to say I’ve been one of them. I don’t know if it’s the weather, the time of year, or just one of those things…
But whatever it is I’ve just had no great urge to write anything, and there’s been nothing interesting going on to spark any interest.
I’ve been seeing a Chinese Doctor the past few months about this rotten skin rash caused by the antibiotics I foolishly took. It’s taken a while but the treatments she’s given me have finally started having an effect.
I’d kind of hoped to have my face back by now, it’s been nearly 6 months since I took the rotten tablets, but I’m told that it can sometimes take over a year for the skin to heal after this level of damage, so I’m just looking on the bright side, I’m half way there already, and the Chinese Herbs should help to speed things up a bit.
Other than that I’ve not been doing much…
No change there then…
I’m still test guinea pig at the hospital for a new CFS therapy treatment they’re testing out. It’s nothing too complicated or taxing (I can’t go into any detail in case it affects the study) but it has to be said, if I’d realised in advance that it was a 6 month test, or what I was going to be doing (somebody please tell me I’m in the placebo group or I’m going to start to worry about the calibre of medical staff being employed these days), but if I knew back then what I know now, I’m not sure I’d have signed up to that level of commitment.
But then that’s probably what they worked on, if we knew we wouldn’t agree, and once we did, hopefully we’d feel we had to go through with the commitment.
Oh well, only another 4 months to go![]()
No news other than that. The CFS seems to be ebbing a bit…
I can always tell, I start to get antsy, irritable and even more aware of how bored and boring I and my life both are, then I start trawling the internet looking at employment and recruitment sites.
I’ll never learn, but on the plus side, it’s a good sign that the major health slump of the last 4 years might finally be subsiding for a while.
Time to sign off, I have a Doctor and Chinese Herbs waiting for me to arrive…![]()

I too am guilty of the not blogging too. I guess there just hasn’t been anything too interesting going on worth blogging about.
I’m glad your face is healing. What an ordeal you’ve had to go through.
