Husband has been taking cocodamol and using a salt water mouth rinse for the past fortnight, ever since the toothache started.
On the subject of medication, some of you have suggested his statins may be to blame for his memory problems. Actually, I don't believe they are - he's been on statins for years, but his memory problems have only occurred in the last few months. Both the psychologist who did the tests and his cardiologist have said it's due to insufficient oxygenated blood getting through to his brain, caused by his heart failure - hence his diagnosis of cognitive impairment with vascular properties. I know statins are demonised (I'm not sticking up for them, I refuse to take them myself!), but they're not the culprit here - his heart failure is.
It's 02.30 and I just cannot sleep, brain is whirling. I'll be fit for nothing in the morning, just as well we've decided to go home early.
Sorry you have had to make the decision to leave the caravan earlier than planned. But a sensible decision - being with someone who is in a bad mood in a very confined space can be absolutely impossible. At least in your own home you can go into a different room.
ReplyDeleteSuch a shame you've had to leave early, but you know what's best for you. As one worrier to another, I hope you get some rest today, if not a little refreshing nap. xx
ReplyDeleteThat explanation is clearer now. I didn't get that from before. Probably reading too fast. So sorry. A different room from now on may be the only solution. Love to you.
ReplyDeleteHoping you had a safe journey home and feel more settled now. xx
ReplyDeleteSorry you had to leave early...if it's not one thing, it's another.
