These are all funny, Andrew. I was going to choose the first one about knights in white satin. Then, I read the one about the iPhone battery, which was hilarious and made me laugh, which is appreciated as I’ve got an awful lot of pain to deal with at the moment.

Sorry to hear about your pain! Are you feeling any better now?

Thank you very much for asking how I am, Andrew. Unfortunately, I am no better; in fact, the pain is worse. I had a bit of a botched tooth extraction, which damaged a nerve, leaving me with a partly numb chin and lips but also left me in real agony. I’ve been on two lots of antibiotics and three lots of strong painkillers, which don’t even touch the pain. I’m currently waiting for my doctor to call me back. I’m really hoping that she can, perhaps, give me a stronger painkiller or, perhaps, something I could take alongside the current drug. I went back to the dentist yesterday, only to be told that the pain could take months to ease and that the numbness may never go. As you can imagine, I am feeling very upset about this 😔.

So sorry to hear you news Ellie. Have you tried hypnosis for pain relief? I can send you a link to a couple of my tracks if you would like to give it a go?

Thank you, Andrew. It’s all pretty grim here at the moment. I haven’t tried self-hypnosis. I think because I am taking such strong painkillers, I doubt if anything else would work. However, if I can get off of this high level of painkillers (Gabapentin), it might be helpful to have the hypnosis link then. Thank you very much for caring. I hope you are well.

I was a hypnotherapist for 10 years and I used to work in a dental surgery with patients who needed treatment but who were scared of needles! I do feel for you. Oral pain is terrible. I am well thank you and am hoping that you have a speedy resolution.

How interesting that you were a hypnotherapist for ten years. Also, strange that you worked in a dental surgery. I agree, oral pain is awful, and nothing I can take is helping. I took my usual dose this morning, but it’s made me sleepy and off-balance (which is dangerous if I fall as I have severe osteoporosis). It’s making my hands shake, which is so upsetting because it’s making writing and typing so difficult as I make so many mistakes and I’m so slow where I used to be a fast typist many years ago. It’s also affecting my memory, which is really distressing. I just don’t know what to do and am at my wit’s end. I wonder if I could take you up on your offer of self-hypnosis instructions, please. It’s definitely worth giving it a go, as everything else is failing. I would be very grateful if you could please get this to me. Thank you. X

Hi Ellie, here is a relaxation track to try first. Listen in a low light environment with headphones, seated or reclined.
https://assuredeffects.bandcamp.com/track/unwind
Stream it or download it for free.
Let me how you get on with it. If you find it relaxing I will give you a link to a pain control track.

Hello, Andrew. I really liked the relaxation track and would appreciate you sending me the pain control one, please. You could either leave a link here, or, better still, send it to my email address at ellie,thompsonwp@yahoo.com. Many thanks. Hope you are having a good day. I’m still in a lot of pain despite the painkillers that give me awful side effects. Xx ✨

Don’t worry, Andrew, I understand perfectly. I think I would be climbing the walls if I had to be without my laptop! I hope you had a good break. I have read your email and thank you so much for the pain control track. I will listen to it later and hoping it will help a bit. Thanks again for that. I appreciate it. X
