Getting near 8 month mark of CAPi [1].  I am doing this blog mid-pulse for a change, perhaps for some balance.  I usually only blog when I feel awful.

So, where was I?  Not feeling so bad is about what I can come up with.  Sleep (generally) well now at night, not needing naps during day since my last-but-one flagyli [2] pulse.  Still need my sleep desperately - often manage 9 hours straight through.  Occasionally nap in day but usually short, sometimes only 20 mins.  Though I still often wake in a slightly paralysed state, which feels weird.

I look kinda well ATM, I get very depressed when I look sick.

Legs still strangely weak and tired.  I can still get painful legs after not too much exertion e.g. catching the bus there and back to the pet shop to get my son a goldfish (didn't happen as its all so complicated now, a bowl is no good, you need a bit more decent equipment).  Don't like painful legs for no reason, no.  perhaps there is still a 'killing field' going on behind the scenes represented by this. Though earlier last week I spent a whole day shopping, and another half day cleaning with not too much ill-effects.

Anyway, now I face Pulse 7 which will be quite a big one (started today) i.e. the first full 4-day pulse!!!!  I watch with interest as to how this affects me, as i seem more in control of my faculties to observe.  partly also from taking a decent break from the last pulse. 

I will report on Pulse 7 in 3 - 4 weeks, and we shall see .......  it might be Black Knight Returns! haha!
