The miracle of nerve toxins

December 20, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Brain, Migraines, Medical

Onabotulinum toxin A has once again come through for me. I finally had my second dose of migraine injections. The waiting period was still a couple of hours, but I was taken into a ward bay straight away and I came prepared this time, I didn't have too bad of a headache so I got … Continue reading The miracle of nerve toxins

Two weeks married!

November 19, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Baking/ Cooking, Ben, Brain, Migraines, Crafts, Films, Fun stuff, Halloween/ Kalan Goañv/ Samhain, Medical, Pets, Wedding stuff

Almost three weeks by the time I'm actually writing this. It's fun being married. I know not a lot actually changes day to day, but there's a weird undercurrent of contentment. As I said before, we love all our presents, but the biggest news is probably that we have a dishwasher! It's not a cure-all … Continue reading Two weeks married!

We got married!

Eight years ago, it was 2010 and I met Will. We started dating after 2 days, moved in together after 2 weeks, and into a flat of our own after 2 months. I was hoping we'd continue the pattern and get married in 2 years, but life got in the way. It turned out we … Continue reading We got married!

Sleepless

September 13, 2018September 13, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Ben, Brain, Migraines, Medical, Wedding stuff

This past weekend was quite busy. Ben came to see us on Friday and he took Will suit shopping for the wedding. Mike and my bestie Kadek also came over and we played some games and did some drinking. Kadek and me hung out in the nighttime while the other three went to bed, we … Continue reading Sleepless

The mediocre week

August 26, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Brain, Migraines, Crafts, Fun stuff, Games, Medical

Not a lot of especially interesting stuff happened in the past week, but it was a bit of a weird one anyway. Also for some reason, in the post before last, photos that were uploaded in the portrait orientation, became landscape after I published the post. I don't know how to sort that out, they … Continue reading The mediocre week

2 weeks since I got needled in the head

August 20, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Brain, Migraines, Fun stuff, Medical, Pets

As the title may suggest, it is coming up to 2 weeks since I got my injections for migraines. It has been interesting so far. The effect is meant to be cumulative, but some places are very obviously already paralysed. Mainly, my forehead seems very frozen in place. My eyebrows can still move, but my … Continue reading 2 weeks since I got needled in the head

I never imagined I’d get Botox at age 28

August 8, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Brain, Migraines, Medical, Stationery

If you're reading this, it means I've managed to make my blog sort of work. I ran out of space on my .com WordPress and so have decided to try self-hosting with the .org version. In short, it has been a nightmare. You'd think that exporting XML files from one site and uploading them to another site, would … Continue reading I never imagined I’d get Botox at age 28

I’m not very good at blogging

June 12, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Baking/ Cooking, Brain, Migraines, Crafts, Eurovision, Fun stuff, Games

It must have been nearly a month since I did this, perhaps because I've spent more time either doing house things or fruitlessly trying to gain energy via napping. This past week I had a triple-whammy of pain in the form of a 10/10 migraine complete with vomiting and diarrhoea, a period, and an alarmingly … Continue reading I’m not very good at blogging

Head needles

May 6, 2018 by An_8nas, posted in Adventures, Brain, Migraines, Bucket list thing, Floorplans/ Housebuilding, Fun stuff, Medical

So far I'm having another quaint weekend. Getting excited for the Eurovision Song Contest. Hoping to improve our lawn health in time for our barbecue. Hoping the mining bees go away before I have to sit on that grass. I had another appointment in Winchester and Will's boss very kindly drove us again. This … Continue reading Head needles
