I'm conscious that I haven't provided an update in a while. This is because there is nothing major to report. It's still going really well overall.
I've been battling a cold for two weeks and, because of my low Lymphocyte count, I wouldn't be surprised if I'll be fighting it for another couple of weeks. I've been put on antibiotics as I've also developed an earache and slight cough - so hopefully we can nip any potential infection in the bud.
The only other thing is my knee hasn't been right for a couple of months - it's swollen and I don't have the full range of motion. No idea what this is - I suppose one possible reason is my new immune system doesn't like it and is attacking it. In any case, I will have an ultrasound examination and (probably) steroid injection in it in the coming weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to get back running after that.
I'm up to three days a week at work and this is going well too, although I'm drained after each day. I find that week-by-week I am getting clearer in thought and concentration, and my energy levels are slowly improving. My company continues to be really supportive and I feel that, with them, I have a real ally in my quest to get back to regular working hours - one that watches out for me to ensure I am not pushing myself too hard, but also gives me enough work to keep me occupied while I am there.
So, I am happy and my family is happy - life is good!
