2022-11-29, Tuesday - Energy 20% / Sleep 90% / Feeling 80%-ish / nausea 20%
Successes:
/
Added .25g GABA at 5 prevented sinus problems, even nostrils 
I really need to avoid heartburn cos of my esophagus, so reduce oat milk even more.
/ Increasing pressure and speed of my massager accelerated a block clearing.
Learnt: 
TMG has some downsides that weren’t mentioned in Masterjohn’s riboflavin podcast, see research.
New Habits: 
(27th: 2 more again)
5’ Worry time (
) 5’ plan time (), 1-2h me time ()
Lower back: More exercises () hanging () massager () HWB , typing lying on front
Gastritol &/or fennel tea with psyllium for night stomach? ()
Close all powder tubs and put all dose tabs back after capsule “lab”. ()
Note empty encapsulated tubs on ToDo ‘hub’, do earlier. ()
Slight heartburn was caused by too much oat milk, thinning that out . - still too much.

Online course ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) starting Oct 24th, about 2h per week. 6th module of 7 today.
Chinese Acupuncturist - Session #32 on 4th., after 14 days “Energy still pretty stable at 20%, despite jab-nausea…” Generally I keep under the max. limits, when I go over a certain time I quickly break down.
Session #33 indefinite. As my energy is still fairly high, considering, I don’t want to risk more cortisol bringing a dysbalance at the moment.

Development
‘Research’ today:
Possible side effects of TMG are according to healthline increase of cholesterol - whilst the nicotinic acid for which I am taking it is sposed to be decreasing triglycerides, which is necessary, but I’m not comfy hearing that at the moment. It’s unclear whether it really increases energy. The most common side effects are diarrhea, indigestion, bloating, cramps and nausea, all of which are now coming up in the afternoons, after the 2nd dose of 2x.5g TMG. But if it’s that why not after the 1st or 3rd dose? 3g like I’m taking seems completely normal. selfdecode says it can improve dry mouth & lips - well that’s definitely not working at all. Further side effects: sweat & urine can smell fishy from trimethylamine.
They also contend that it’s sposed to be good for the liver, apart from possibly lowering homocystein. What I haven’t been getting is agitation and sleep disturbances.
Praps I should reduce or stop it and see if homocystein is too high from the nicotinic acid at all…? At least watch if it fits to the 3x daily intake, which it actually doesn’t.
ToDo: RSM Webinar on fibro on Oct 10th, on fatigue on Oct 25th, on lipids Nov 15th - still need to get round to that and the MCAS summit before that.
