2022-02-05, Saturday - v1: Night quite OK-ish… I keep thinking I’m up 10x for hours, so tallying helps relieve that feeling.

Triggers & resulting Symptoms

SLEEP (click for details): 8h30, up 5x (61')(felt more)+ 26' doze = 8h56. ✅, but ➔ Feeling 70-80% well, Ache 22 of 7 🧐, getting up: 80%/2 ✅

No fw! lbu: belly tensing? No half-sitting on sofa! SUPPS & AIR 1st!
cold shower p0 Sleep 22:45- (belly pain down, bit of nausea, so nux vomica, burning in right front of thigh air)
0:10 18’ 80%/2 p0 st1 drink fw2’ A4 youtube.
1:45 16’ 70%/2 p0 st1 drink fw10’ air B1
3:15 15’ 70%/2 p0 st1 drink fw12’ B2 Waking up wondering (after about my recent songs) further about jab-sfx and realizing a very burnt tongue & also wondering if cold water might help that like cold showers help my skin. Drinking the chamomile tea seems to help, tried a 2nd ALA.
5:00 7’ 70%/2 p0 st1 drink fw2’ Dream of bus driver problems, then a plane disintegrating, cardboard boxes showering over roads. Stomach ache - chamomile, soy drink. air. HWB. Splashed cold water on face, since I didn’t really feel a cold shower was necessary or worth it.
6:35 5’ 70%/2 p0 st1 drink fw2’
-8:16 8’ 80%/2 p0 st1 drink fw 2’ sinuses OK, torso/arm/bum skin itching a bit. B3. Dozing a bit.
-8:50 = + 26’ B4
Sum: 1h15+8h16-(18+16+15+7+5=)61’ = 9h31-61’ = 8h30, up 5x (61’)(felt more) + 26’ = 8h56.

ACTIVITIES (aiming for 40% - well 20% - of pre-fibro) ➔ ACHE: Resting most of the day ➔ 80%/2, outside 2x25’ ➔ 70%/3
"HOW DO I LOOK?" At 21:00 I asked my wife how I look, and she confirmed what I’d seen in the laptop camera (eyes!) and it was the look in the mirror that made me look better, so I think I’ll try that more often now. :trophy: Found a pocket mirror right on my desk I hadn’t “seen”. 8:25 Lips medium, eyes tired. :face_with_monocle: :trophy: White lips :x: :trophy: 10:30 Lips redder :face_with_monocle: :trophy:
ACTIONS ➔ PAINS: :white_check_mark: Managing to stand well & long in the morning, but getting a stiff back due to not stretching enough: A quick twist-stretch does the trick. :white_check_mark: I’ve never realized how stiff my back can get and that can make it harder to bend down & get up. :face_with_monocle: No GI any more. :white_check_mark: Hands hurt while cycling slowly downhill :face_with_monocle:, bit better after stretching :white_check_mark:.

Development
Jab-sfx: Haven’t been keeping too tight note on these of late, just writing 1-2 symptoms down as they become more conspicuous (again). But I still haven’t been able to transgress the 30% mark of physical activity back to 40%, altho most don’t seem that conspicuous to me any more. If I compare once again to the list of jab-sfx here JayCS’s Fibro Blog - #615 by JayCS, quite a few have decreased, but I still have 1-7, 11, and partly 12, 13, 15, 17, 18, 25, which is 14 of 25 (21 of which were there on day 12 and long following). A new one is not being able to focus my eyes properly a lot of the day. And my tongue just started up at 3:00. Looking here again ALA seems to be better at .6g, however I’m taking the more bioavailable R-enantiomer. But still I’m trying 2x.2g now at 3:30.
Splashing cold water on my face at 5 instead of cold showering may have helped.
MCAS may be caused by mold. Airing and breathing exercises reduce mold amounts. There are certain areas of something like slight mold in my bedroom… So airing may be helping that. The whole flat had quite a few mold problems when I moved in…
Jab#2 or not?: A friend of ours phoned just to say he does NOT think it’s right for me to get another jab, it’s others who need to, to protect people like me. Problem is others don’t, and more importantly he can’t guarantee I won’t get it (esp. via my wife).
