Hi All,

Hope everyone is keeping well.

I have now received both my vaccines for Covid-19.  Glad to report hardly any issues a slightly sore arm and a little tired but that was all.  Feel lucky to receive the vaccine hopefully we will all be able to hug one another soon.

As you know I have started my journey on Medical Cannabis.  Yes its expensive but I really feel its working.  Some days I don't have a painkiller at all and other days I just have one.  My sleep is still up and down.  Before they were more down.  There have been some nights I have slept right through.  I normally find it difficult to fall asleep and then say asleep.

I have had to stop chair yoga due to lockdown but will be starting again in a couple of weeks.  Really looking forward to starting up again.

Weird thing now is I am developing dry skin patches randomly some on my stomach and forehead.  Not sure if this is to do with the autoimmune diseases or just something else happening to my body.

I having been trying to promote my book but not even sure where to start?  I am looking for people to review my book in exchange for a free copy of my book.  If anyone is willing please email me.  It seem it's not news worthy for Jersey or UK.  I have already donated copies to all schools, the library and a few select people so far.  

I think the decurms is getting worse it seems like I am getting bigger I know steriods don't help but have to take them because of the Addisons disease.  The Addisons disease is being managed I am on two types of steriod now.  My BP is better managed and I am not getting dizzy spells. The Behcets my hands have played up a bit but that is also being managed I do suffer chronic fatigue as times and have to lay down and rest.  Learning to except this has been the hard part.  You are not able to make plans.  The IBS is awful going from IBS-D and IBS active this also makes it hard to plan anything.

Well I will keep you updated on the Medical Cannabis and how things are going.  Just need to learn how to control the IBS next.

Take care

Alison
