Getting somewhere

Everything with the carers seems to be going well, pretty much been having the same carers morning and lunchtime although there was a gap of a week with different carers in the morning because the morning carer was on holiday. It was a little chaotic as i had a different carer every day so had to explain what had to be done and where everything was eg breakfast bowls, milk, cereal etc every day which got a little annoying. Both carers are always around the same time which is good as it means i am getting into a routine; i am also able to call the agency if i want to make any changes to times or days, for example my fiance is working this weekend so the careers are coming this weekend although its likely it wont be the usual carers because they only tend to work in the week.

The carer agency hasnt gotten back to me about how long or when i will be able to go out or how long or when cleaning will be able to be done, apparently they are still working out the finances, this seems to be taking quite a while its been four weeks monday.

I had the electro nerve test at the hospital which apparently shows i dont have carpel tunnel syndrome which is apparently something the rhemotologist was looking at, they had alot of problems getting a reaction in one of my thumbs, i should recieve an appointment soon to see my rhemotologist soon to discuss it and also talk about how my fibro is doing generally.

I had a financial adviser from Social Services around yesterday the same lady who came around last week. When she came around last week she called the DLA and requested some forms so i can reapply for a higher aspect of the care componant as i am currently on the lower componant and after helping fill in the forms she thinks that i should be entitled to either middle or higher rater care, apparently i should hear something within 6-8 weeks, so fingers crossed.

Also yesterday we had the bed raisers delivered so the bed is much higher so when i sit on it to get into bed and get out it is much easier the only problem is that it is higher of course to lift my legs. We havent heard anything from the nursing team about the electric bed yet.

Only a few days left until i see wheelchair services on the 1st of July, i am starting to feel nervous.
