I have vertigo from an inner ear infection. Spent much of today lying flat, with this as my view.

Supplements 'n Stuff

Things I put into my body today: my usual Vitamin D tablet as well as an immune booster and throat spray. There's a nasty cold doing the rounds at my office - I'm trying my best not to get it.

I had the last of my routine medical tests today. I got feedback straight away... all a-okay.

Med

Hmm, expiry date 08/2012. Does that mean the contents have spoiled, or simply lost their efficacy? And do I risk it?

Almonds

Snacking on raw almonds today. I feel a bit fragile after a nasty migraine last night, and my tummy is queasy from the painkillers I took. I hope I feel better tomorrow.

A Big Glass of Water

I had a back massage today - trying to sort out my problem shoulder and neck. It was intense and a bit painful. I made a point to drink plenty of water afterwards.

Nursing

I'm sick. After visiting the doctor and picking up my meds I took to my bed for the rest of the day. I slept and watched Call the Midwife.

Lozenge

My throat is killing me today. I sucked Stepsils practically non-stop, but they have offered little relief.

Spritz

I think I'm fighting off a cold - aches and pains, and a scratchy sore throat. The pharmacist recommended I try this spray. It's so weird!

Steaming

My cold was worse today. I sat with the bowl of boiling water, drops of Olbas oil and a towel over my head, in an attempt to ease the congestion. Not fun.

I have a very sore shoulder and neck. Went for some physiotherapy today, and also brought out my crocodile hot water bottle to apply some extra heat to the area.

Paste

dailyhelen_paste by dailyhelen
Tom came back from the vet this afternoon and he seems to be feeling much better (yay!). I have to start him on this antibiotic tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to it... last time he has medicine in paste form he spat it out all over me and all over the kitchen!

Sick Cat

I had Thomas at the vet today. He is running a temperature and not eating. We're not yet sure what is wrong (update: it's biliary; poor poppet).

Leaf Rafts

The low-carb eating plan is going pretty well. My lunch today was tuna salad on baby gem lettuce leaves - they work as a good substitute for bread or crackers.
