Then I drove over the bridges to Fire Island and went down by the lighthouse
TCB, I'm glad you now have pain pills that help you and that your doctor has compassion toward your condition. What are the pills that you're taking?
I had a very bad night. Last night I was having visual disturbances -- really frightening -- which I now think were a migraine. I haven't had migraines in many years, ever since I started taking Neuro Mag, a form of magnesium that's very good for migraines. My doctor thinks I take too much magnesium, so I cut back a bit, and I think that's what prompted it. I've told him many times that I NEED this much, but I don't think that young, healthy people understand what it's like to have chronic pain or how to deal with it. So I'm back on my usual magnesium doses. I will need to tell him about this, though.

Even Sasha at night has started to lay on my side with her head looking up at me. Usually, when she sleeps on the bed with me in the evening when I am reading or watching TV, she always has her head facing away from me.It's my experience with Annabelle that Sasha knows you're in physical trouble. She's watching over you.And God said, "I will send them without wings so no one will suspect they are angels."

Quote from: TCB on August 20, 2022, 01:57:56 PMI am thinking that I will need to adjust my bed. I am not sure if I need to sleep with it higher or lower. I am thinking higher would be better, more like sleeping in a recliner. I hope that higher is correct, because I don't think I could ever sleep flat again. Even with the oxygen, it would be hard to breathe.It makes sense. I always elevate my bed when I have bronchitis or a bad cough.
