Awake at four
Rowantired energy 2
This week: Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two…
An unremarkable week
Ariafine energy 1
Three things this week. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's boring weeks.…
No news
Marthafine energy 5
A brief account of the week. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. I…
I wanted to stop
Ruthiestubborn energy 4turning point
A brief account of the week. Ada said something in circle that has stayed with me: that a plateau is weather, not a verdict. I have written it on a card. Flat,…
I nearly did not write
Tinukesteady energy 5
I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's boring weeks. No news. The dog is…
Iron and B12
Lenapleased energy 5turning point
Notes for the week. A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both. Blood pressure normal without medication for…
Six labelled boxes
Nanorganised energy 4
New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it…
A printout I cannot read
Nolanfrustrated energy 2
This week: Left with a printout I could not read and no idea what to be worried about. Taking it to bloodwork-buddies on Thursday. Asked the question I had been…
A locum
Petuafrustrated energy 5
A quiet week. Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. A locum who had…
Sunday lunch
Sadiewarm energy 1
Ten minutes then I am asleep. Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. Somebody asked what my secret was and I…
Circle tonight
Tobiaswarm energy 3
Notes for the week. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Somebody new tonight, terrified,…
How are you doing on a Wednesday
Wilfheld energy 5
This week: Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. Nobody has ever asked me how I…
An unremarkable week
Zoëfine energy 4
Quickly, before bed. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole…
Back without making it up
Abeltired but good energy 1
A brief account of the week. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday and…
Sunday night, four lines
Aleksheld energy 2
My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be…
No news
Bexflat energy 2
Ten minutes then I am asleep. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. I nearly did not write this week…
Iron and B12
Bunnypleased energy 2turning point
Evening. Everything stable. She said come back in a year. I have never had a come-back-in-a-year before. A1c down. Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a…
The limits of yoghurt
Espesteady energy 2
Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got…
Across the day
Heddasteady energy 1turning point
Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. A very direct post about protein that offended two…
The question I had been avoiding
Inêsfrustrated energy 5
Took the diary in. She read it properly, which I had not expected, and changed the plan because of it. A locum who had clearly read nothing. I was polite, I got what…
A1c down
Odilepleased energy 1turning point
A brief account of the week. Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at. Improved.…
Three years side by side
Petuapleased energy 5turning point
Short one tonight. Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle. A1c down. Bloods back. Unremarkable, she said, which is a word I had…
Nothing to report
Ronansteady energy 5
This week: An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Steady. That is the whole entry. No news. The dog is well,…
Fewer, heavier
Sorayatired but good energy 4
Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two…
