Rebooting...please wait...

Well, not really, but it's about the closest I get to reboot

I often feel terrible when I come back after large gaps - it almost feels like I'm slinking back with my tail between my legs. Or my head in my hands more accurately.

So firstly, hi, how are you, I hope you're well. Let me know you're still 'out there' please :).

Secondly, there's a lot of news for me to share, but I wanted to let you know how I was, physically. I'm pretty sure I've said this a few times, but just in case you didn't see it, I was diagnosed after a very long, very painful time, with what they think is Status Migrainosus. It's a diagnosis of exclusion, and one that I've discovered some doctors don't actually agree with. I trust my own doctor though, if I'm honest - I feel he knows me well enough to understand what is wrong with me, and the best treatment path.

And while my treatment has reduced my 'attacks' to a low level constant headache and what I've taken to calling Icepick migraines, and I'm still photosensitive, in a way, I am actually almost OK. the photosensitivity is to do with changing light levels (usually rapid low lights to bright lights) and if I forget to wear sunglasses and protect my eyes. But I'm managing, I guess. Which is nice.
I'm also mostly resigned to having this go on the rest of my life. It'd be good if it went away, but I've adjusted, as people do when given a chronic illness diagnosis. I guess, when I think about it, the reality of all of this is that I live with an illness I may never see the back of, or, if I do, I have a much more likely chance of having it over and over again if it does eventually go away. There is also the possibility that I'm extra unlucky and I have an ongoing migraine and something called 'cluster headaches'. Whatever it is, my head often hurts at various levels every day.

Which has put me back into something that I've called 'adjustment exhaustion' in the past. I'm going through that again now. I know that I'm struggling because I've had this issue before in the past with Iron and B12 anaemia, so I'm cautious about many things at the moment. One of the things I've really had to acknowledge though is all my plans need revised. ALL of them.

And that's where you guys come in, I guess.
What would you like to see?  I've got a list of things that I'll be working on going forward, but I want to know what YOU want. Backlists are interesting tasks, but I'm hoping to start also moving forward. And that comes down to you. You guys are in control.  What would you like to know, to see?

You can answer here in the comments, or over on my blog, or you can message my page. Whatever you do, I’m grateful :)
