Crohn's Quine Diary Entries: 17th - 23rd June 2013

Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a great week. Today's post is my Crohn's Quine diary entries from the 17th-23rd of June. If you would like to see my diary entry's as soon as post them, then follow my tumblr page Crohn's Quine Diary.

Thursday 20th June

It is that time of the month again so that means my head is all over the place, I go from feeling really depressed to a grumpy bitch, oh how I love being a women.

My PEG tube is also being a right pain again today, I have no idea what is wrong with it. On the outside there is a bit over granulation and there is just the usual discharge, so whatever is wrong with it must be on the inside. I don’t feel that there is much point in going to the GP though because I have already told my GI consultant that it was causing me problems.

Also today I have finally decided where I want to get 4 tattoos done so all I need to do is sketch out the designs and save some money which is easier said then done seeing as I have a bit of a shopping addiction. 

Friday 21st June

I am really annoyed with myself at the moment, I had done so well at getting my sleeping pattern back to normal but on Tuesday I slept to 12pm and then I couldn’t get to sleep that night. Since then it has slowly spiraled and last night I did not get to sleep until 5am and slept right through until 4pm. 

One thing I find when I don’t sleep at night is it makes my depression and anxiety worse. I must try my hardest to get my sleeping pattern back to normal if I don’t want my depression and anxiety to become bad again. 

Saturday 22nd June

I only managed to get an hour’s sleep last night and I had to get up at 7.30am this morning for my appointment with the beautician. I really didn’t want to go to my appointment but I forced myself because I knew if I cancelled I would regret it. 

After I had been at the beautician I decided to go into town because I was needing to get some vitamins, wheatgrass powder and Aloe Vera from Holland and Barrett (health food shop). I decided because I was already in town I would have a look round the shops or should I say Boots and Superdrug (drugstore’s). I ended up buying so much makeup or to be precise, 4 eyeshadow palettes, 3 nail polishes, 2 lipsticks, 2 body butters from the Body Shop and the Sleek face form palette. To be honest I really didn’t need to buy anymore makeup but makeup and nail polish is something I love. The one positive thing from this shopping trip is I managed to stop myself from buying myself new pair of shoes, if I had decided to buy the shoes that I wanted it would have cost me £240 which is really a ridiculous amount of money for 2 pairs of shoes.

When I came home from town I noticed that I had developed a pin prick rash on my ankles again, I am really frustrated that after only a couple of hours walking I ended up with the rash. I always get scared that one of these days that walking or doing any form of exercise is going to cause my ankles and feet to swell up because if that happens it will take weeks for it to settle down. 

Sunday 23rd June

So I managed to get a good night’s sleep, yay!!! I think it was due to the fact that I only had an hours sleep on Friday night and stayed up all day Saturday.

Today has been a chilled out day, I just spent it watching the British Touring Cars which is actually my favourite way to spend a Sunday. I also started working on a new blog post which is going to be random things about me. I was thinking about doing 50 things but as I started writing it I found it difficult to come up with 50, so I might just make it 20 and if I come up with more things I should just do another things about me post.
