2023-03-16, Thursday - “CoV” from Thursday 19:00 (bladder 12:00) till Tuesday 17:00 = 5 days plus or minus 2-5 hours. My wife says despite my severe symptoms, she wouldn’t call it CoV, just an “offshoot” of it… I spose she’s right as regards an official diagnosis. ENERGY: “20%” = of let’s say 16h, just guesses, but probably identical to before “CoV”, i.e. short cycle spurts possible, 4 games of TT max. tho, so am repeating those number - but did not use as much energy, cos of my little amount of eating:
R rest: 0% intensity 30% of the time (5h),
S slow: 60% intensity 30% of the time (5h), - maybe less
M medium: 80% intensity 30% of the time (5h), maybe more
Q quick: 90-100% intensity 5% of the time (1h) - maybe less.
(pre-fibro: 100% intensity 100% of the time.)
Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%
Successes: 
“Histaminey”? burning frontal headache in afternoon today started 2h after eating. At night also when empty. But that’s not always the pattern. However it doesn’t start with eating.
Leaning against a metal bar/stand behind me treats sore/trigger points.
Next problem not eating much has many reasons: 
my esophagus problems, 
bad appetite anyway in January from the health pracitioners diet recommendations, 
no meal times with my wifes during her CoV, 
lack of appetite from my “CoV”, 
not much hunger either from CoV?, 
feeling no necessity, not needing it, happy as it is etc…
But seemingly irregular heartbeats 50% of the time is worrying me, so
I’ll now sort out things I love eating, like peanut butter and mixing yogurt with apple sauce to fill myself up, also trying wholemeal buns, buying some for my wife made me feel peckish.
I’m not twist-stretching here yet like I do on my couch.
Are my headaches deyhdration, cos binge drinking with the supps ain’t the same?
My “irregular” heartbeats will be due to flat batteries, got to load them up again.

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 17th: 18:00 or 17:00 that gate needs to come down. I've completely changed where and how I sit in this new 'environment', but nothing I need to install as a habit, is just becoming one rapidly, at least while CoV lasts, everything is centred around the lower part of the bar table, food and work all around. Mar 16th: At a certain time, starting with 19:00 "a gate comes down" and I'm not allowed back into the web unless I first: take evenings supps, prepare supps, eat, take all my alarms seriously, get my blog finished.

Triggers & resulting Symptoms
JAB#3 (on Nov 7th) causing MCAS / histamine problems, esp. energy narrowed to (10-)15-20%, decreased to mostly 10-15% in January. Mar 16th: Still some histamine rests, but energy vs. histamine like before CoV, praps less stiffness, but less appetite. Mar 13th: Histaminey burnt tongue and feverishness after 1h intense 'work' phone call. Mar 12th: all Ache und pains decreasing, urge better until I move, but no appetite, nauseous when I do something slightly strenuous, and dry coughing like mad a lot of the time. Mar 10th evening: Virus Ache of 5-7, underlying energy seems unchanged 20%. Feb 26th on: Energy up to 14-20% from T4. Feb 3rd-25th: 10% energy.
JAB#3 (on Nov 7th) → MCAS / histamine since end of Dec: 15-20% energy for under 45’, then white lips & pale face. But if I keep strain down to ‘half speed’ (70%) I can push on thru for hours - with a few breaks and lots of task-switching. Not that much specifically histaminey problems since end of Dec, occasionally sinuses and nausea, no more ill ache. Usually white lips & face 30%, and some sliding instead of walking indoors 10%, bit more cold intolerance 30% (long johns 24/7, 2 thick duvets at night). From Jan on, bit warmer (5-12° C), I’ve swapped long johns for a 2nd pair of pyjama trousers at night and when I’m pretty active at daytime sometimes no long johns, but when out slow cycling/walking. And don’t need hot water bottles any more, whether I can manage a cold shower (usually) or not.
Development summarized: Down: Nov 17th - Dec 1st, worst 17th-18th, best 20th & 29th. Up: Dec 2nd-6th, Down 7th-8th, Up: 9th-14th, best 13th-14th: Winning easily 4:0, and slow energy for 4h!

From Feb 3rd on: 10% energy. Cold tolerance good, just not my fingertips. 8th: Bit of tongue after red beans, but OK. Feb 12th 6:00: Stronger histamine-y symptoms and stomach pang. Feb 15th: strong headache evening and night probably from red beans without DAO, praps also the sinus burning. Feb 18th: More energy for the first time. Very red lips, looking inflamed, go white when I press them together. From Feb 19th on: back down to 10% energy, everything else fairly OK, incl. at night, incl. cold tolerance, incl. fingertips, but lips’d be white if they weren’t chapped and inflamed. Feb 24th: Energy up to 14% due to specks of T4. Feb 26th: sinuses upon waking up 9:20… Energy up to 20% from T4. Mar 10th evening: Virus Ache of 5-7, underlying energy seems unchanged 20%. Mar 12th: all Ache und pains decreasing, urge better until I move, but no appetite, nauseous when I do something slightly strenuous, and dry coughing like mad a lot of the time. Mar 13th: Histaminey burnt tongue and feverishness after 1h intense ‘work’ phone call. Mar 16th: Still some histamine rests, but energy vs. histamine like before CoV, praps less stiffness, but less appetite.
Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Jaw: Hardly & seldom pain since Nov. A bit more in Jan. Jan 6th: Slightly psychosomatic from memory of a painful time. Jan 10th: A bit after tooth cleaning. After: regularly a little bit, 1-2x/d. Better since improving tooth care again and giving that side of the jaw a rest from chewing for a few days from Feb on.
Treatments
Click for details: Update Mar 9th: Tea tree oil in paraffin cream has stopped my lips hurting, chapping & bleeding, so some fungus, like foot, maybe from low WBC. Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms since early March. T4 for thyroid, starting Feb 24th, varying, around small specks of ~0.8µg (2 weeks for half a 25µg tablet). Feb 7th: biotin and manganese too high, so unnecessary, Ω3 much too low. Not re-starting any expert physio.
The anti-sore cream didn’t work that well, so tried GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, successful. (Right foot needs tea tree oil too.)
GP prescribed T4 Feb 23rd to try. Day #4 bit more than the days before: Slower energy, histamine-y sinuses and frontal headache. Decreasing improved all that again.
Bloods Feb 7th: Most (like WBC, B2, phosphate and protein) are better, but still keeping those going, biotin and manganese too high.
