21st September

Felt more or less ok today apart from the usuall aches, although I vomited up last night's sandwich in the night. Fairly undigested, so must have got stuck in the stent, and never made it to my stomach.

Friday and Saturday were reasonably stable. I'm still finding it difficult to get comfortable enough to sleep, still have no energy during the day, and still don't feel like eating much. Sunday night though was bad. Having dozed off lying on my left side, I woke with a mojor reflux incident around 2.00 am which developed into a coughing fit (aspirate in windpipe,) with what looked like some digested blood clots. This reoccurred at 4.00 am except the vomiting was much more violent and greater quantity of aspirate/blood. I estimate about half a litre. I didn't get to sleep after that, just dozed. Still have the pain in my right shoulder when i lie on that side. PICC line problem? New adjustable bed on order, should reduce the reflux.

Felt ok first thing having slept better last night. Drove in to Norfolk & Norwich to get my PICC dressing changed ok, but started to feel odd (lacking in energy/blood sugar?) on the way back. Retreated to lie on the bed when I got home and stayed there most of the rest of the day.
