## Lowlights of the week, and some highlights too - Aug 1st to 8th - supp overdoses… Emojis of the week: 🧐 🥴 😳 🥺 🤨 1. Me self-disciplined?! 😂: Been breakfasting at noon “cos of fibro-work” the last 2 weeks… 2. **Supps** : All changes seemed bad, so gentler changes or new ones. 🧐 3. Back down to 600+300 **GABA** after prob’ly a ?week of _ **serotonin syndrome** _ (e.g. 1800mg). 🧐 4. That might’ve increased bp & pulse, so lower for a while till they’re back down. 🧐 5. Glutamine (does it help?) & theanine & glycinate (bad nights upon starting it) down but there too. 🧐 6. Supp decrease Fri+Sat was better, so _they_ had reduced sleep length, _not_ the blood fat meds. ✅ 7. **Bladder** pain is down a bit again. ✅ 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. ✅ 12. **Symptoms** : Best get back out of panicky mode after the GABA overdose. 😌 13. **Sleep** was **not** improved by the work break ✅: its the supps balance. 🧐 14. Sleep shorter, apparently effective, getting up instead of dozing, to get supps in balance. ✅ 15. I’ll try alternatives to fw like reading when awake at night, but if AuTr doesn’t help… 🧐 16. Often cold at night, nose stuffy, headache: window open long or supps? 🧐 17. _GI:_ Still good. ✅ 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. ✅ 20. **Gym** increased Ache ❌, but stopped right loin! ✅ 🙂 21. _ **Sitting** _: **All** higher chairs seem better. Floor sitting & chair slouching distributes pressure too.✅ 22. _Jaw_’s now only slight if at all 🙂 ✅ but changed a bit & sometimes right too. 🧐 23. _Bladder_ pain down more again ✅, after increased Ache had made it a bit worse.❌ 24. Checked RR more. Increased a bit, often takes 10’ to get down to 130/85. 🧐 25. Integrating further _ **Yoga Nidra** _ techniques regularly into my AuTr. ✅ 26. Bit _ **too much socializing** _ this week, considering, but very well paced Sat 7th. ✅ 27. More on forums & adding to the references. _ **fw is rest for my body, purpose for my soul** _… ✅ 28. My blog = “Diligent and dedicated tracking of all symptoms and treatments” see [here](http://fibromyalgia.techie.org/fibromyalgia-nausea/). ✅ --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.livingwithfibro.org/t/jaycs-s-fibro-blog/13307)._
