Sleep: (CBD oil 18:30) 20:40- 22:15p 0:35p(10’) dozing? 3:00p CBD starting to work more (eyes, bit belly?) mouth hurts → guard out 4:40p drowsy, bit heavy, but OK, tooth a bit → guard back in 6:50p gut OK (bit bloated), tooth OK (so better with guard?) -7:30 very hungry, but altogether better than after melatonin. 9h50-25= 9h25
Nap: 0
Work: Only a few minutes.
Activities: Table tennis 6:2, with a break after 4:2. 17:30 Grandchild plus 2.
Feeling well: Night: good, around 70%. 3:00 60% 7:30 Body 90%, but very hungry & very tired, so 70%. 8:30 Doc, Table tennis, contacting: 70%. 21:00 still 70%, 113/76 60
Treatment: Mouth guard in for doc and table tennis, since I got tooth ache yesterday then. Noticed tooth ache coming for a short time, but it quickly went down again. I’d had the guard in most of the night too. I want to do the breath-holding more, but I keep forgetting… 17:00 Done it now, just writing, listening to music and the exercise at the same time, not quite as effective.
Hacks:
Tricks:
Pain: Not much in the night, tooth, until guard. Guard helping in the daytime too.
Gut: Hungry at 7:30, but that might be cos of eating less cos of the tooth ache.
Diagnoses: 8:30 Angiologist: OK.
Development: I’m continually optimizing my self-care so I don’t overdo it at all or too much in these moments. My wife says I overdo it too often, my rehab-psychiatrist says it’s OK & right to sometimes do it. It’s an art, a bit like surfing - you gotta know which wave will carry you, and not break, get on and off at the right point in time and know when it’s gonna stop carrying you.
