On Monday 13th September I went back to work. I am absolutely determined that I am going to lead a normal life and not "become a patient" (this was a phrase that the doctor used which I particularly like!!) It would be all too simple to stay at home and feel sorry for myself but where would that get me?
In the beginning part of the week I found that my brain was not working adequately! I had difficulty focusing on the job in hand so I allocated myself easy jobs which did not require much brainpower! The doctor had joked that I would not be as bright as I had much more oxygen going to my brain when I had a high blood pressure!!
Each evening when I came home from work I would have to go straight to bed and I would spend the entire evening snoozing and then would sleep for a massive ten hours or so! I have always been an eight hour a night person but this is ridiculous!!
However, I did it!! I worked the entire week except for the times I had to go to hospital, for this I am going to give myself a huge pat on the back!!
