Reflux again. I slept propped up on three pillows and woke at two anyway. I have an appointment on Thursday and I am going to actually mention it this time rather than deciding it is not worth bothering anyone about.

Bad week and I am writing it down anyway, because a journal that only contains the good weeks would be a lie and no use to anybody reading it later.

A rough few days. Not dangerous, just relentlessly unpleasant, the kind of unwell where you cannot read and cannot sleep and cannot settle to anything.

Very tired. Not the kind of tired a nap fixes. I slept nine hours and woke feeling as though I had been awake all night.

Physician, heal thyself.

This is the second time this week somebody has described that and I am now going to mention it at my own review.

I am eleven weeks behind you and this is the first thing I have read that sounded like my week.

No wisdom, just: I am sorry. That sounds genuinely hard.

Ninth week for me too and I also nearly stopped. Glad neither of us did, so far.
