The days are fine, litterally no rain for 24 hours! And my pains become less with each day. Today we did our weekly supermarket shop and I was walking almost normally with only a trace of limp. Yesterday I walked around the village and riverfront areas for almost an hour. By the end my legs were tired but today they seem stronger as the result of the exercise. My daytime tablets for pain relief are now down to a half or less of what they were.
By contrast the nights are still very disturbed. My bladder gets me up at about one and a half hour intervals unless I am woken by my wife in pain or going to the toilet herself. Recently, after active days, I have found it more difficult to settle to sleep owing to pains in both upper thighs. These are not serious but prevent me turning onto one side or the other with all the pressure on one thigh. If I try to turn on my side I feel the aches coming on which will keep me awake. If only my nights would improve in line with my days!
