The appointment on Wednesday went well. It was more an occupational health assessment than a diagnostic appointment, but I will get a letter out of it that I can wave in front of my GP next week saying that she thinks I should have all sorts of diagnostic tests and see various specialists. I have not taken any painkillers since the 14th. This has been... interesting. Most obviously the joint pain has come back. Headwise, things were rough for the first week, but now I think it's levelled off into a kind of brain fog. I am doing particularly badly at speaking and remembering to eat and just generally coping with pottering around the house. I don't know if I should start back up on the ibuprofen or not. So very tempted.

And then I took 300mg of ibuprofen, because I just can't stand being in this state any more. No effect yet.
