Treatment Day 7

Pills and Nasal Spray#5

Last day of this part of the regime. Side effects most likely to kick in from tomorrow.


I realise I forgot to recount some of the details of us getting started. Remember all that stress caused by the phone call to say our appointment for the 7th hadn't been rearranged for the 12th? Well, it turns out that was kind of unfounded. But with hindsight, I'm glad we went through it.
Actually, we were still booked in for the 12th but nobody told the doctor who had us in her diary for the 7th. Hence her phone call. But the outcome was that we ended up getting in there 24 hours earlier. which meant we could see the nurse in the appointment slot for the 12th. And thus get started on the 14th.

Almost certainly we would never have been able to kick things off this month if we had in fact kept to the original appointment. We'd have saved ourselves a weekend of anxiety but gained another month of waiting. 

It's all very strange. I can't accept that these things are 'God-incidences'. But it's interesting and profound that at our lowest ebb, when we cried out to a few people for prayer and felt incredibly low about it all, it turned out that something very helpful was actually happening.
