Do you still journal in maintenance

What helped was lowering my own expectations of the week rather than trying to hold the week together.

My experience was very boring, which I offer as data. Some of us just get a dull time of it.

Please do not read the comments under news articles about this. I lost a fortnight to that.

Similar here, and mine turned out to be a completely unrelated deficiency picked up on bloods.

Mine lasted about seven weeks and then lifted over a few days. I cannot tell you why. I can tell you it lifted.

the reply above said something I want to sit with for a second.

Two things that helped me, neither of them clever: small amounts more often, and drinking a lot more than felt necessary.

Practical, boring answer: write the three questions down before you go in. I have never once remembered them otherwise.

Coming back to this a fortnight later to say it settled. Leaving the update because I hate reading threads that stop.

Building on what the reply above wrote rather than answering the original question.

I am the person who had the frightening version of this. I went in, it was investigated, and it was not what anyone feared. Going in is the whole of my advice.

the reply above — yes, and the bit that took me longest to accept was the next part.

I asked my nurse the same question and she said something I have repeated ever since: that the aim is to keep you on treatment, not to get you up the schedule.

Different experience here, for balance. Mine did not improve and in the end I stopped, and that was the right call for me. Both outcomes exist.

The phrase that unlocked my appointment was asking what specifically she wanted me to watch for. It moved us from reassurance to a plan in about thirty seconds.
