[migraine] slightly less wailing

(1) Letter from consultant from previous appointment ARRIVED, so it is with my GP, and I have a GP appointment next week, so hopefully I will be able to start some more attempts at treatment from then-ish.
(2) Give or take the bit where I... have a migraine right now! Which does at least mean that I am likely to have somewhere between ten days and two weeks til the next one, which probably gives me time to actually sort out all the New Drugs and maybe start supplements and such. So that's something.
(3) Also the hospital replied to the queries I e-mailed in and it was all Fine. I have answers to immediate questions, A Note Has Been Made re my request about language, and nothing has been said about whether they operate a cancellations list and I sort of suspect they're in sufficient demand that they don't, really, but also I know that information has been seen so. Time to settle in for the next four and a half months, sigh.
One of the things this means is that I need to do some proper thinking about what it is and is not sensible for me to even attempt to grow at the allotment this year. Tomatoes need watering at least every other day, so a bed full of tomatoes is... not viable, given my regular six-day migraines. I have been feeling upset and avoidant about engaging with needing to pick crops that can be abandoned for a week at a time, but... I kind of need to. (How I am recording this in terms of my Work and Social Adjustment Score, also requested by the clinic, I leave as an exercise to the reader.)
