Another week...

At the moment, I have two main concerns: 
  1. hayfever - bah!
  2. falling asleep in the afternoon and evening unexpectedly!

Well, the first one is something I get every year. I just have to grin and get on with it. This year, though, as a result of the colds I've had since my discharge, I seem to have ended up with less itchy eyes and more sneezing, spluttering and runny nose and laryngitis than usual. I look forward to the end of the season.
The second one worried me for a while. Before I was diagnosed, I was sleeping a lot during the day. I would get up at 8 am and by 11am, I'd be having 'a little rest' and not waking again till 5pm. Anyway, before I began to get really panicky about my 1pm sleepiness, I realised that my puppy is currently bouncing around until about midnght and getting up between 4.30 and 5.30 am every morning! Maybe it's not surprising that I'm exhausted by lunchtime...
The good news is that I've now been able to drink coffee again with no side-effects. I'd forgotten how much I dislike it! But things are definitely looking up.
