Introduction

Hello guys, it's nice to meet you. My name is Heather and I am 27 currently.
I am a mother to a beautiful little boy called Leonardo or Leo is his name for short.
He's currently 1 year old. Leo came a surprise to me, unfortunately when I was 32 weeks
pregnant I had sepsis (blood poisoning) and I have been recovering from that back in August 2016.

I am a strong woman to be still here in the world. I am not highly religious but everyday is a blessing.
I represent the Sepsis Trust and I have promoted my story online nottinghampost.com.
I have also been asked to star in Panarama lately.

We don't know what curveballs life can throw at us sometimes but can either let them weaken you, define you or strengthen you.  in Panorama lately that are going to come around to my house. I'm dealing with a lot at the moment and haven't been able to think of the Panorama.

Goodness words just can't describe how much I adore this boy. He may look a lot like his dad but he has a lot of goodness in him because he has me in him.

Having to take 3-5 cocodimols a day.  A dull pressure in my head that I can feel.  Enlarged pupils Poor concentration Slower thinking pace Poor patience Pain at the back of the eyes when you lean forwards Having to rest the head on a pillow or chair arm in the day Struggling to sleep Off vision and blurred even though I had 20/20 vision before pregnancy I used to multitask, think fast and was so intelligent before I got Sepsis in my pregnancy back in August. I survived that amazingly and gave birth to a beautiful baby boy called Leo. He's 1 now. He lives with hi

Headaches and Painkillers

So, for a couple of months now I have been experiencing headaches. Like a lingering headache everyday the best way to describe it is like the worst headache of my life. I have previously been trying to phase them out with painkillers, 3-5 cocodimols a day. I know that's not healthy.. as codine can become addictive. Trust me I'm not addicted to them. They just phase out the headaches for a short while but then the pressure in my skull is back apparent as ever. It never disappears and it's been like this for months now. What I can't understand is perhaps 4 months ago, I had an MRI scan. It wasn't with blue ink contrast though because the instructor who was going to do the test thought because I was only 27 it's unlikely to show anything up. Which is a silly reason and I really wish I had that blue ink contrast. I waited about 2 weeks for my scan results. I also had a full body CT scan with blue ink contrast to check other areas. And an EEG. During all these I wa
