Not sure why I didn’t do this sooner, or even if I should be doing it now, but no way I’m going to take a fucking opioid (Tramadol) twice a day for three months in case it makes me feel better. And who knows when I’ll hear back from the knee surgeon to discuss the the results of the new x-rays they took that very same day. Then I remembered that when I saw the other, nicer, kinder traumatologist in June (about my shoulder) she had suggested taking this collagen supplement (two months on, one month off). Around the same time my GP had suggested something called Nubit for my neuropathy, which began during chemo and frankly ain’t getting any better. So decided to go for it, ordered both of these today and let’s see what happens.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

The HUGEST – seriously – the most humongously BIGGEST – fucking cockroach I have ever seen in my life happened to me this morning, around 7am when I wandered into the bathroom for a pee… AND OMG THERE IT WAS AT EYE LEVEL ON THE WALL next to the toilet. It was just THERE. Hanging out. In no rush. Chill as can be. There was no time to think, every fibre of my being, every emotion, froze solid and I went into complete survival mode.

I unfroze, raced out, grabbed the Shoe of Death with suddenly every nerve ending I owned going totally bonkers, raced back to the bathroom and the fucker was just… STILL THERE. Idiot. Hadn’t budged. Was just asking for DEATH. And so that’s what it got. OMGOMGOMG.

This makes, I think.. 5? Five sightings this season. Above average… it’s usually 2-3. Please make it stop.
