OUCH!

The Collagen injection I had in my right hand abut a month ago has now worn off, and I boy do I know about it! A few weeks of blissful relief had lulled me in to a false sense of well-being and I am, once again in the grip of pain.

My left wrist, injected last week has not responded as well as the right, possibly due to the fact that it's condition is much worse, making it difficult to insert the needle between the bones…..yuk!

Still I can't complain, the lull did give me a chance to give my lovely garden a much needed tidy, and although there is still work to do it looks so much better for the attention.

Both my G.P and the boys have begged me to stop, but I am unable to resist the call of Autumn, the wonderful smell of a smoky bonfire and the satisfaction of a job well done. In fact the only way I will stop will be when someone else is digging...... my grave!

For now however I have been obliged to suspend operations until this flare up subsides a little.

On the 26^th October I am to have some scans on both wrists and thumb joints, so no more injections until then. I wish it was tomorrow,

Meanwhile it's back to the Oromorph,the Codeine and the Diclomax for me, bum!

Getting the food ready for our Halloween party could prove difficult , and I suspect that the icing on my spooky cookies will be on the wobbly side. Hey Ho.

Still there are plenty of scary treats to be had, delicacies such as chocolate eyeballs, jelly spiders and so forth and I shall have to resort to these items if needs must.

The boys have offered to do some of the baking……….now that is scary!
