Not looking for a Miracle or anything ?

I am forever devising new systems for recording my health / wellness as opposed to my migraines and illness . I started making in highlighter pen in my handbag diary the days I didnt have a headache rather than the days I did . felt a more positive approach somehow to record something good rather than something bad .

Last week I was delighted to have five days clear of headaches and terrific that was too .

This week however , after an excellent weekend , and a good Monday , something set me off around four pm on Monday and I was in bed almost as I came in from the Day Job , working on Tuesday , retiring at five thirty , and finally presenting a training session at work on Wednesday though a clashing head . Having decided at the end of last week that things needed to change , I saw my GP who suggested blood tests and Tuesday evening brought a letter from her asking me to contact her to discuss the results . Sounds ominous as we had already agreed that I would ring her on Friday to plan the next step once the results were in . I'm assuming the tests have thrown up something , and as usual , feel highly optimistic ! ( I should find out on Friday )

At last ! Something has shown up which will be simple and fixable ! It will be a minor imbalance which has been building up for some time , undetectable until now , and now its been picked up , there will be a simple treatment which will almost immediately make me feel ninety per cent better .
Soon I will be up until midnight like I used to be .
Contributing to the fullest extent at work the way I wish I could every day rather than once in a while , the way I did a few years back .
Staying awake past six o clock .
Having the enrgy to do all the things with N that she wants me to do .
Feeling alive again .
Waking the dog every day like I used to .
Not looking for a miracle or anything am I ?
