Sunday 24th Oct: Another bout of horrible pain again.  Every part of my body is hurting like hell again. My skin is tingly and sensitive to the touch. If I could get inside my bones to scratch I would. I hate feeling like this. Also sensitive to light right now, and have a thumping headache. It seems to be the norm to feel like this at least once or twice a month. I have no idea why this happens and why I can't predict it. It really floors me when it comes. Sometimes it comes at night, sometimes in the day time, I never know when, it just seems to arrive and stays for anywhere between 12 and 48 hours. It's been 6 hours already... please go  12 hours in, damn this, why won't it ease down. Lucky I have water beside the bed and pain killers. Time for a few I think, and two Gabapentin. 16 hours in starting to ease, at long last, on a volume scale of 1 to 10, it's finally been turned down to a 8. Monday 25th Oct: Well not much sleep had but at some point things eased, and

Forgetting names. Losing words. Having trouble concentrating. You may have heard the term “brain fog” to describe these issues. Brain fog is a common — and often upsetting — symptom of spondylitis. What Is Brain Fog? In short, brain fog refers to mild cognitive impairment. It results in a whole host of cognitive issues, from forgetfulness to general mental sluggishness. Brain fog is not specifically a medical condition, but rather a symptom. It has been connected to certain inflammatory conditions, including spondylitis. Inflammation is thought to affect the brain and prevent it from reaching a full state of alertness. Many people associate forgetfulness and cognitive problems with serious medical conditions like dementia, which can be scary to consider on top of a spondylitis diagnosis. However, the cause of the brain fog is usually something else. One member wrote, "I thought it was the beginning of dementia. Now I see it’s not. Spondylosis is the cause." The Im

  Mental Health & Covid-19 With the Covid-19 pandemic, lockdowns easing and the continue rising of cases in some areas of the UK, it is natural to feel stressed, to feel anxiety and confusion. First of all, it is ok, more than ok to have a cry. Crying is a good way to release pressure, and to help get things out in the open. No one is weak if they cry, and don’t let anyone tell you any different. I have been suffering with depression for years, not being able to fully shake it. I have found talking to friends a good way to help. At the moment I feel the NHS is under more than enough pressure with things to deal with. There are a number of mental health charities out there that can give help and advice, such as Mind. You can contact them via social media platforms, as well as going to their website at https://www.mind.org.uk and this page can make sure you get the right help that you need   https://www.mind.org.uk/need-urgent-help/using-this-tool Back in 2020, around about
