Not so good today - so far.

I went out to a bbq last night...and I have only had alcohol once in the past 3 years...
Well, I had 2 cider last night...had a horrible night...but I know it's my fault...

I just wanted to feel 'normal' last night. I guess it was fun while it lasted...but was it worth it?
I will see how long this misery lasts....

I feel like Bill Murray in the movie "Groundhog Day" wake up...same old crap...over and over again...
That movie has been mentioned a few times..it's so fitting..

Going for my epsom salt bath in a bit...and I will get some relief from that...then another round of pinella and burbur

How is your day, sam12?

In much pain :(

I also had vertigo but now it is better

It's been hot again, which aggravates everything, but I felt well enough to make some spaghetti sauce from scratch in a cast iron dutch oven, with my garden tomatoes. That's the sort of thing I like to play with all afternoon. I had a rough start trying dig through my veggie bin in the fridge, hanging upside down not only plays havoc with my back, but all the blood rushing to my head brings on unpleasant side affects, like shaking and over the edge nerves. I love that I can take frequent breaks, and have pain pills, or I'd never accomplish anything.

Still recovering from that mess of a week with Sida acuta. Feeling a little stronger every day. Currently kind of nauseous though and still kind of afraid to eat food...

Bad today. Woke yesterday morning with all sorts of energy. Had plans to celebrate my birthday, but pain started setting in. Today, no energy, neck pain, pain between my spine and shoulder blade. Finally got around to taking my first drop of jk. No herx yet. Debating whether to take a drop of cc too.

Hope everyone feels better soon.

When I bend over - my pots symptoms come on.
So, then I try to bend at the knees and squat...but my knee joints hurt....

Can't win. cry

How is your day, sam12?

I totally understand, I went to my cousin's yesterday as they just bought a new house. Not even 20 minutes in and I started feeling a chill, always feels like I am on the cusp of a fever. Then the usual questions from everyone, "You look tired today, are you ok?" I wish I was, truly wish I was. I feel trapped every day.

Psilo, what happend with Sida?

Its not specifically the sida. It's happened with cats claw too. But apparently something is going on with my gallbladder or liver or something but it hurts every time I treat and not like a herx. Like something is wrong. But I got stuck on the sida because I would relapse into neurological hell if I stopped. But if I kept going I would do more damage. Finally got off without a relapse but my organs are still paying for it. Eating too much seems to make me very sick now and my abdomen still hurts

Sorry I am having a pretty good day. Swam in the lake for about 45 minutes, got some sun then home to eat. Always hungry after swimming. My muscles in my abdomen are very sore. I don't have a "stop eating" button any more and I sometimes over eat and then I get sick to my stomach. Getting sick to my stomach makes my muscles sore. I guess I really get into throwing up.

I have a grandson that I need to drive to court tomorrow and he is just a sad little 21 year old boy. His mother died (my daughter) when he was 12 and he is not finding his way in life.

I pray that he listens to this old woman and takes my advice, otherwise I will have to watch him make mistake after mistake as he flounders his way through life. Not a fun thing to do when you love and care about someone so much.

I'm so sorry your grandson is having troubles. It is the most helpless feeling watching them or our children struggle through when they don't want our feedback. Swimming in the lake sounded heavenly PeteZa. I had thoughts of driving up to the spring fed creek this afternoon but I had a hunch my energy would be short lived. It's a good thing I tasted my spaghetti sauce so often while it simmered, by the time the meal was on the table I had fallen apart and it took me an hour to make headway on my plate. I'd had a handful of frustrations before sitting down and between them and my responses to them, I was wrung out. And then I forgot to take a dose of knotweed until I remembered once I got back on here.


It's been hot again here, over 90 with humidity, and I seem to feel all this so much worse when the temps go over the high 80's. Also, it seems like most of my internal systems practically shut down in this kind of weather.


This is to make y'all laugh. Do you know that Chiggars aren't supposed to have the body parts to evacuate what they eat? One of these days I swear I'm going to look in a mirror and see a giant Chiggar looking back at me! tongue

ETA, Girlie, my joints are so weak if I bend at the knees I can't stand up again. I cannot squat without leaning on something.
