And yet another day rolls in and I am feeling good. Not perfect, but relatively just a tiny bit better. The remnants of pain and inflammation are less than yesterday, also I am feeling more flexible. My flexibility test is getting shoes and socks on: how far and easily can I bend over. Well flexibility is coming.
About two weeks ago I was on a regular stream of anti-inflammatory tablets, especially on bad days. Now it has reduced over the last days to one or two per day. Last night I stayed up late binging on the first series of Happy Valley (now streaming on Netflix). Being late to bed is always a bad recipe for me. Firstly sitting in front of the TV till late makes me incredibly stiff and that lateness can make for a bad night's sleep. And so without messing about I get some NSAIDs inside me, and to bed.
And as I say above my night's sleep wasn't too bad and I am feeling good.
Whenever I feel good it is time to try some foodstuff that is on my risky "todo" list. Today I have elected for a can of baked beans, which is an inflammatory risk because of the tomatoes. Beans on toast. I have added a generous dollop of my turmeric paste, some chilli, and some dairy-free cream for added interest.
