Last night I slept fairly hard but woke up a few times. What I forgot to do before going to sleep was to set my bed angles for better back and leg comfort (motorized bed), so when I woke up, I knew I had made a mistake in not having set the angles. I didn’t hurt nearly as much as I did yesterday, but this new day saw me being as slow as I was yesterday, but without the intense pain and fatigue. I went to PT this morning where Mark noted that my muscle tightness, on a 10 scale, was 8+; I agreed.
Flutters had been present during the appointment but began to increase as he was finishing up stretching me, so I opted for a dose of liquid K+ and some phenagren (sp?) before leaving.
Once I got back home, I was pretty tired and weak so I got into my black chair, ate some meatloaf sandwich and watched some G3 from Tokyo on DVD and slept. I didn’t wake up fully until around 6;00 PM; these attacks are laying waste to my system for now. But my resolve is good and my desire to live *normally*, whatever that means for me, is strong too.
It’s 9:30 PM and time to try and go to bed for the night…hopefully, I will be able to get off to sleep without any issues.
