Sorry you got next to no sleep @outlander .
Your 27C sounds pretty pleasant, compared to our 35C here today. Although its meant to reach that temp by midday, before a cooler changes comes through in the early afternoon. So hopefully it wont be stinking hot for too long this time. Unlike last Sunday. Ive never been someone who likes the heat, much preferring cool weather. But now, with these surgery wounds continuing to be very sensitive and tender, its even worse. Skin gets hot and sticky and the scar tissue rubs on everything. The boob scar rubs against my arm all the time. It really hurts and is very uncomfortable.
Ouch ... a headache which gets worse with pain killlers? Perhaps you have an allergy or other reaction to whatever is in the painkillers ... have you looked into that? Gosh ... I too hope sincerely that the pain clinic can help you Li'l One. With all your many and varied aches, pains, allergies and sensitivities you wouldnt know where to start. I used to sleep on my stomach a lot. Cant now though, not since surgery anyway. Hoping I eventually can again, but think thats a fair way off. I think radiation therapy will also affect that ability. Oh well. Anyway ... I really hope things settle for you a little during today. Everything usually feels worse in the night hours, I find. Maybe you can even find a chance to have a rest somewhere in your day. Wrapping xmas presents under the fan? Hmmm .... I could do a comedy sketch on that one. 😊 Good luck.

I sorry to hear how much it is affecting you hun @outlander
It does seem to be expensive to buy the 'right' sort of food.
It is hard when our body doesn't agree with us, I hope the doctor has some answers for you hun.
You deserve to be pain free.

Oh @outlander I am sending you gentle hugs hugs and hugs ❤️💞❣️
Are the painkillers coated with lactose or contain? Most are, can be worse than the cause?
Hope you get some rest today hun. I'll keep you in my thoughts xx

Unfortunately the pain releief isnt the problem as in its not coated ans says doesnt contain lactose etc. It also means i have to weigh up whether i want a bad headache over another pain so right now i have a mild headache but my hip is really painful i would take some pain releief but i know my headache and stomach will get more upset so im avoiding it for now and will just have to manage till Thursday when i can get back to the chiro. They are like rebound effects 🤷♀️ @Anastasia
