Day
Twenty
STILL
IN THE SAME BOAT
I
wake up my head feels like it's been smacked by a cricket bat or two
my right eye is aching hurting madly I'm screaming with the pain
paracetamol Cocodamol nothing works I bathe my eye in cold water take
more painkillers I'm still in the same boat and sinking fast I spend
the beautiful sunny Good Friday afternoon indoors coughing on and off
my right eye weeping the pain is unbearable after dark I try to sleep
but I'm either shivering or sweating the bed sheets are soaking wet
and need changing twice in the night eventually I manage to get a
little sleep when I wake my right eye is still killing me and now my
left foot has joined in with excruciating pain from around my big toe
I have a birthday party to attend this afternoon and decide to go
regardless of the medical condition I find myself in big mistake by
the time I get home I can hardly walk I go through a repeat of the
previous night intermittent coughing shivering sweating and
excruciating pain then when I awake my condition has progressed I now
have a massive pain in my right ankle too it feels as if it's broken
and I really am unable to stand on it what am I going to do I ask the
Doctor she says it's gout with nowt taken out
