Wow.

When to Budapest for 5 days. Now my wife loves here holidays and she works very hard and deserved to have a nice time.

Some of you know I was give Morphine to help me though until my pain Managment kick in no ideal but better then nOt going at all.

It was ok but painful I found that each day got a little worse until the last day I as happy to be coming home.

But I can not believe what we did, we were on the plane and we had a cheese toasty, what were we thinking colitis and white bread for me is a NO NO. We also had to walk in to the airport nice and cold windy and raining. I was shaking so much I could not focus my eyes I could hardly walk. We managed to get though and head home and since then I have don't nothing but sleep. 13.00hours now, food is not on my list I just need to drink.

I take it every one has problems in the cold, I don't know what is worse my headache my joints or my gut. Sorry just having a very low moment and can not stop crying it embarrassing
Just checked my temp and it is 40.9 no wonder I feel ill, nothing to do with my colitis much lol

    That sounds pretty high, maybe you should go to see your GP as you've returned from abroad just to check it's nothing too nasty. I hope it won't spoil your memories of your trip. DD

    No wonder you feel rough with such a high temperature. Don't know much about this but could it be a side effect of the morphine?
    Looking on the bright side at least you didn't go to Sierra Leone!

    Thanks people.

    Just a bug, wheezing, coughing all the usual niceties
    I am too hot then too cold
    Still my good lady is being ever so nice to me
    And I am catching up on the new Doctor Who.

    I liked the old doctor, still give him time. No pun intended.
