Maybe I should get another hobby?

One that uses less space. Now not only my historical wardrobe is bursting from all the clothes, but the modern one is close to that too. I made this one on Wednesday.



Collecting matchboxes maybe?

Adding another illness to the list

In april they discovered that i (for the first time in my life) had high blood pressure. So I was told to got to the health clinic regularly and check it. There they decided that I ought to see a doctor to and gave an appointment on the 18th of August. Prior to that, I should go and take some tests yesterday. Fasting.
Well I did, and I went home and when I had been home for an hour or so the doctor called and asked if I could come and see him immediately.

Not a good sign.

Well it turns out that my thyroid has gone hyper and need to be knocked out with chemo, radiation or just removed and then have synthetic hormones for the rest of my life. Until that is doen I have to eat beta blockers to slow down the heart rate. Unfortunately it doesn't help against all the other symptoms and I hate having a lump in my throat. I'm going back on Monday for more tests and then I'll see him Thursday, but if it continues they may have to do something faster than planned.

I do feel more sick than yesterday, which can be just because I know now, but also can be because it's getting worse. In any case I can't lie down now, because tomorrow I will do the handfasting of two friends, with 70 guests and all the trappings of a big wedding. I hope I feel well enough then.
