A year ago I would have thought nothing about catching a train to travel the forty miles or so into central London and stay overnight whilst my wife is at a conference. Today this is a challenge that takes more planning than just checking tickets and cash are sorted.
My planning started about three days ago ensuring I was not eating anything that was going to cause a flare. Flares from complex foods can take three or even four days to clear my system, and after that I have to allow time for my strength and emotional stamina to build.
The first morning I am as right as much as I can hope for and I even walking tolerably well. I was up early this morning having a lovely of porridge with a banana. Check emails, pack a case, pack my meds and have another sleep (blame a bad night of Brexit-itis!)
