JayCS’s Fibro Blog

Lowlights of the week, and some highlights too - Aug 1st to 8th - supp overdoses…

Emojis of the week: :face_with_monocle: :woozy_face: :flushed: :pleading_face: :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

  1. Me self-disciplined?! :joy:: Been breakfasting at noon “cos of fibro-work” the last 2 weeks…
  2. Supps: All changes seemed bad, so gentler changes or new ones. :face_with_monocle:
  3. Back down to 600+300 GABA after prob’ly a ?week of serotonin syndrome (e.g. 1800mg). :face_with_monocle:
  4. That might’ve increased bp & pulse, so lower for a while till they’re back down. :face_with_monocle:
  5. Glutamine (does it help?) & theanine & glycinate (bad nights upon starting it) down but there too. :face_with_monocle:
  6. Supp decrease Fri+Sat was better, so they had reduced sleep length, not the blood fat meds. :white_check_mark:
  7. Bladder pain is down a bit again. :white_check_mark:
  8. New “next up” category here on the most recent day, instead of in this weekly digest.
  9. Despite energy, Activities were pretty bad, cdnt manage much, maybe from GABA overdose.
  10. Even acupressure (backside & neck/shoulders) caused Ache this week too.
  11. Cryotherapy alone (Sat.) doesn’t do more for me than cold showering, but definitely had its day. :white_check_mark:
  12. Symptoms: Best get back out of panicky mode after the GABA overdose. :relieved:
  13. Sleep was not improved by the work break :white_check_mark:: its the supps balance. :face_with_monocle:
  14. Sleep shorter, apparently effective, getting up instead of dozing, to get supps in balance. :white_check_mark:
  15. I’ll try alternatives to fw like reading when awake at night, but if AuTr doesn’t help… :face_with_monocle:
  16. Often cold at night, nose stuffy, headache: window open long or supps? :face_with_monocle:
  17. GI: Still good. :white_check_mark:
  18. Stiffness back up a bit (GABA overdose).
  19. Energy still high, incl. no breakdowns - so all was not lost, but knackered a lot in between. :white_check_mark:
  20. Gym increased Ache :x:, but stopped right loin! :white_check_mark: :slight_smile:
  21. Sitting: All higher chairs seem better. Floor sitting & chair slouching distributes pressure too.:white_check_mark:
  22. Jaw’s now only slight if at all :slight_smile: :white_check_mark: but changed a bit & sometimes right too. :face_with_monocle:
  23. Bladder pain down more again :white_check_mark:, after increased Ache had made it a bit worse.:x:
  24. Checked RR more. Increased a bit, often takes 10’ to get down to 130/85. :face_with_monocle:
  25. Integrating further Yoga Nidra techniques regularly into my AuTr. :white_check_mark:
  26. Bit too much socializing this week, considering, but very well paced Sat 7th. :white_check_mark:
  27. More on forums & adding to the references. fw is rest for my body, purpose for my soul:white_check_mark:
  28. My blog = “Diligent and dedicated tracking of all symptoms and treatments” see here. :white_check_mark:
