As predicted yesterday, a good win over The Arse has been a proper tonic. Another restless night ( I was up at 3 watching match of the day) but awoke feeling ok at 8.30.

The district nurse informed me that it is possible to administer my own injections. I politely declined.

My sensation of taste is still diminishing and my mouth, throat & tongue are getting drier & drier. I wake up at night with my mouth welded shut & my tongue pretty much stuck to the roof of my mouth. Water sorts it out temporarily.

Not to get too gruesome but my tongue feels like someone has removed it, coated it in sawdust & stuck it back in my mouth.This is as a result of my taste buds & saliva glands being obliterated. It's all manageable with fluids but obviously the desire to eat reduces when what you are eating has no taste whatsoever.
