JayCS’s Fibro Blog

Thanks Jmarie! Yeah, we need to know how to pace, and where our limits are, but we need to distinguish where we can push thru without too much of a setback/backlash, and where we can’t. And adjust how we do those things that cause backlash differently, so we can reduce it further.
Not sure about “giving in to a diagnosis” - a diagnosis is of course only a doc’s label we can use to connect with and sharing/learning from others, or occasionally help with getting aid. But behind that diagnosis is a certain severity of symptoms. And if like me we have 4-5 main “diagnoses” or “conditions”, all severe, then we have no choice but to listen to our bodies and adjust, pace, keep to our bodies limits. Some people see “fibro” as an enemy they need to fight and not give in to. I absolutely don’t, fibro is a pretty self-evident name showing that our body is overtaxed and needs consideration and respect.
But like I wouldn’t call that “giving in” either tho, because we are continuing as best we can, with other means than before, we can still be happy and have quality of life.
I do think in a certain sense we can “heal” this, but only by not letting it get the better of us, i.e. remaining strong inside. Despite researching, trialling every treatment that my possibly can mange for full working weeks for several years now, and having to keep up >100 treatments every single day (no way anyone could have done more or done it better) - I maybe unravelling some secrets, but many things I try have almost as much downsides as upsides, so I see absolutely no chance to improve much more, if that’s what you mean, aside from 100% quality of life and 100% happiness, at least in my own opinion. That’s what I definitely ‘can’, not physical healing. Apart from that I’m with the Serenity Prayer: developing the wisdom to see what can’t be changed and what can. Life comes with certain things that are set - like physical death. The only ways around that fact are belief and attitude. And a Christian I do believe that Love, Goodness and Life goes on in a certain hard to define way. But I know my main conditions fibromyalgia, MCAS, genetically high lipids and Schatzki ring, in their severity and interaction as well as many other symptoms that plain come with my body from birth, are too complex for humans to physically cure/heal them inside the next 30 years in a way that can allow me to be like I was before, be fully active 10+ hours a day instead of only a few. And it doesn’t help me to believe this will be the case, it helps me to know I can manage and manouvre this well, as I am.
You may mean the same, I’m just clarifying. Or you may mean something different, then I’m saying: I’m different… - each to their own…

So definitely thanks for you encouragement, and I do wish your belief in the healing will carry and strengthen all your endeavours till you are healed in some kind of way that makes you happy, if you aren’t there already.

Pain, stiffness, lack of sleep and flu symptoms are things that can no longer touch me, hardly cause any problems - I just need to take their severity into account with what I do - I hope that’s the same for you. What do you do with the pain, can you mentally put it into its place while resting till your muscles recover, too?
(Whining cos of bladder pain for 2 weeks now wasn’t a problem for me (was for my wife tho…), but it was still good to now remember and try to up my GABA every time it starts up again now, which is working a treat - with a few side effects…)

Edit: My wife shares your belief in healing. At the same time she catastrophizes and worries. Are these two sides of the same coin? Cos reality puts the belief in doubt so much?

2023-03-24, Friday - Energy = ? - again far beyond the very low point of physical exhausion 90% all day, from start to finish, feverish Ache - but still pushed thru usually very slowly, sometimes something strenuous. Bed earlier.

Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%
Successes:
:zap: I can only influence cough phlegm by keeping or getting my feet warm.
:zap: apart from that I can only ty to blow my nose and swallow more .

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4. 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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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!

Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

2023-03-25, Saturday - Energy ? vs. exhaustion … 90%?

Getting a hold on the new symptoms:
Cough with hot water bottle on feet, esp. at night.
Hot flashes / night sweats with reducing to a T-shirt, like in summer.
Bladder pain and urge with still quite increased GABA.
More insomnia and lack of appetite by reducing T4 -
don’t feel the need to increase energy by using it, and I’m not sure if it reduces the exhaustion, may do, could try again soon, but only 1% of a pill once.

Sleep 90% / Feeling 75%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

SLEEP (click for details): 7h36, up 4x (33'), all deep, with hot water bottle on feet for the phlegm, taking continually more bed clothes off till I wasn't wet any more. So tonight starting that way. Also experimenting with leaving blackout blinds open in the morning to try to get my circadian rhythm better quicker, not sure about that. I just need to go to bed earlier. For that I'm trying to write these entries earlier in the day, instead of last thing, like I'm writing this first thing. ✅ ➔ Feeling 70% well, Ache 3 of 7 ❌, getting up: 80%/3 ❌.

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.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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.

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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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.

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 16th: Still some histamine rests, but energy vs. histamine like before CoV, praps less stiffness, but less appetite. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

Lessons in self-care #617 My wife is angry at me. She says it’s because I haven’t been self-caring today, I’ve been doing too much in the garden and this is making my cough worse, because I’m cold. It’s true I did a lot today, probably too much, not as many breaks as I should have, but I kept the strain of each activity down, made sure I was warm all the time, except in a break once, sitting in the sun, but also a bit in the wind, so that wasn’t long.
Reasons to be cheerful #660 The garden is really getting lush now from all the collected dry wood used to clad lots of ugly places and then anything anyone’s cut off that’s blossoming I put over that as dummies and sparkles and flashes of light (contrast to the dry wood), more moss too.
Simplified #66 Taking all the supps and food I need down in the garden is working quite well. The movement helps - but it also distracts a bit…

2023-03-28, Tuesday - Potential energy again far beyond the exhaustion that outbrakes it.

Reminder: Since “non-CoV” I still have a stubborn cough, night sweats, strong pee problems (improved from GABA) and again (but improving) less appetite. Stopping T4 has not helped these, but it has also not curbed the high potential energy.
Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4. 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. Last change Mar 3rd.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

2023-03-29, Wednesday - Energy once again always far beyond what I can use. GP thinks my symptoms are “beginning B-symptoms” so wants me to get checked for cancer stuff: lung x-ray, surgeon and oncology.

Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4. 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. Last change Mar 3rd.

:ambulance: At X = 19:00 a self-care gate comes down curbing further web work. (:x:)

Today's FM symptoms unchanged from WPI 11 & SSS 9, except....: SSS +1 = 10 = headache in evening? Adjusted basic stiffness to st3 = 30% since Feb 24th (click for details)

Today’s symptoms sorted by the ACR 2016 criteria

Widespread pain, WPI = 11 of 19 areas: limb-Ache 8 (10%, stiff 30%) + spine-pain 3 (10%), shoulder-girdles/hips 0 chest / abdomen / jaw 0
Symptom severity, SSS = severity 9 of 12: Fatigue 3 (“80%”), insomnia 3 (10%), fog 2 (10%), headache 0 (0%), GI 1 (10%), depression 0

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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: Mar 29th: GP cos of hurting left nipple and also night sweats. (Sitting at the doc's I'm wondering whether increasing the GABA by 30% to 3.7g/d might be causing the night sweats, but can't really imagine that, more likely bladder and seizures played up when I overdosed it, and they are both better now. He thinks it might be cancer or similar, wants that checked, which is fair enough.... 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.

2023-03-30, Thursday - Again “enough” energy for the exhaustion, but again quick exhaustibility, it can turn in minutes. So I spose I can give up on the positive “energy” number, cos that’d always be high, I think “exhaustibility 80%” is a fair representation, altho I seem to do so much in the garden, but that’s only cos of fresh air etc. - Very exhausting meeting cos of an a*** with a big mouth making others nervous. I turned both sides round, but having to do some exhausting things got me sitting in the corner. Still silenced bigmouth a bit. Not enough. And actually wanted to go “get him” next day, Friday (but then it wasn’t important enough any more. But next time I’m ready.)

Sleep 90% / Feeling ?85%-ish / nausea 0-10%, fog 10%

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4. 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. Last change Mar 3rd.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th.

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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

2023-03-31, Friday - Exhaustibility “80%” - but again, it’s difficult to put a number on it, so I spose I’ll have to think this thru again bit by bit. My GP’s wife praised how tough I am, I explained how I do that, but forgot to say that after 10 minutes there where I seem fine, I’ll break down and not talk to anyone for a time.

Sleep 90% / Feeling 80%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4. 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. Last change Mar 3rd.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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!

Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Treatments

Click for details: Lung x-ray result today: fine (as I expected). 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.

2023-04-01, Saturday - Exhaustibility “80%” = of 16h again:

So do these numbers originally for the “energy” work for exhaustibility in any way?
(I’ve been leaving them in the blog entry templates for when I get round to analyzing them.)
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.)

OK, let’s turn them around:
(Exhaustion “80%”(?) = of 16h)
R rest: 100% exhaustion 30% of the time (5h),
S slow: 40% exhaustion 30% of the time (5h), - maybe less
M medium: 20% exhaustion 30% of the time (5h), maybe more
Q quick: 0-10% exhaustion 5% of the time (1h) - maybe less.
(pre-fibro: 0% exhaustion 100% of the time.)
Yes, that seems to work. So I can take that over to the templates and keep checking. Today is a bad, cos untypical example, tomorrow possibly too.
Whilst my energy intensity is always far above these levels.

I thought maybe I haven’t lost quite that much weight. But on our home scales, which is my reference, I used to be over 80kg, and am now 75kg without clothes, can’t cheat that up to 76 like I thought. I haven’t weighed that little for decades, not a good sign at all… 8:30: 74kg. That would seem to be the base level with a totally empty stomach. 23:30: 76kg. Full stomach, end of day.

The last weeks I’ve been feeling de-hydrated before the next meals, cos I have to drink so much for the supps that I’ve been trying not to in between. And I haven’t been peeing more, prap even less. So now I’ll check how man litres of almond milk I’m drinking at the moment. I’ll be starting my next litre at 20:30 Saturday evening. The only good thing about this is that it makes me want to take my next supps in time, which isn’t bad at all. But I must be drinking around 3 litres per day, = 100 oz., how can that not be enough… that’d be another weird new symptom, thirst (with a de-hydration headache feeling). A workaround could be just to drink more, all the same, seeing as tho I don’t feel I’m peeing more. Or has this “dehydration” headache got to do with hunger, still reduced appetite, malnourishment? What happens if I drink without eating? It’s 20:30, first I drank a third of my previous litre, now a third of the first new one, that’s only my pre-meal, sleep and meal supps, still got after meal supps and 3-4x single GABA to come… Next idea: the night sweats will be de-hydrating me, praps I’m sweating more in the daytime too, sometimes my longjohns are too much at the moment - but not when I’m moving slowly in the garden, so I still need them there. My wife agrees, but thought this might be from T4, didn’t realize that I’ve long stopped taking it… so let’s get things clear:

NEW SYMPTOMS SINCE T4 Feb 24th, AND SINCE NON-COV Mar 9th: 3% (2-5%) of T4 pill: Feb 24th (see “treatments”) to Mar 23rd (see “supps”), “non-CoV 1” Mar 9th-13th (virus Ache, feeling fluey sick/ill, strong headache (& jaw ache, shoulder pain), sore throat, allodynia, no appetite, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting Gastritol 2x Mar 10th/11th, cough, histaminey symptoms: burnt tongue, bladder enormous frequency (5’-15’ in the evenings) and pain, meaning +30% GABA since then), “non-Cov 2” Mar 20th-? (still coughing a lot Apr 1st), also halving B2, B3 and TMG to 3x1 from Mar23rd. Reasons: high pulse, high blood pressure, low appetite (already Jan health practitioner tho), cough. Pulse and blood pressure could be from the nicotinic acid as well as the T4. Energy since Feb 26th - T4 stays in a hypothyroid system for 6-7 weeks, which means mid-May I may be losing my T4-energy and histamine (needing more GABA), re-gaining appetite, reducing pulse, blood pressure and staying up late, despite antihistamine since Feb 27th (which was necessary to reduce sleep breaks again, 10mg rather than 5mg, and praps to balance out a histamine increase from the T4, see Feb 27th). I’d stopped it Feb 20th. Interesting: I was using T4 when the non-CoV came up, and retained the T4 energy in the background, despite feeling severely sick. The T4 increased histamine, so I had to add GABA, and also insomnia, so I had to use the antihistamine again.

Mar 2nd dry heaved from baked beans tasting like fish.

When did the lip “fungus” start? Jan 21st “Lips very chapped, but not bleeding” for the first time, Jan 30th bleeding. Feb 3rd, 5, 6 chapped with blood somehow, 7 better. 18th-Mar 4th red seeming inflamed, better when using tea tree salve Mar 5th, but I have to use it many 3-6 times a day/night since then.

Fingertips extremely painful in January till Feb 7… from gardening and moving flats without gloves and washing hands too long, made me gasp for pain, 7 better, around Feb 17th-19th worse again, also lips worse, fingers 20th better, 24th worse, 25th better. Mar 1st “better, still not good”

Feb 18th I mentioned pee fatigue and thirst/dryness headaches…

Jan 6th to Feb 3rd: Stomach problems and nausea from masterwort and Hexacyl, trying to increase, then had to reduce and stop again. Psyllium and medicinal clay (at night) caused stomach problems.
Seizures and histamine burning and runny nose Jan 14th/15th, tongue 16th-18th(19th) (increasing feverfew/MSM and/or cellar mould and/or moving flat and/or trying to increase masterwort & Hexacyl).

Severe night sweats since Mar 19th, when I seemed to have re-visited the “non-CoV” with feeling fluey sick again. However no temperature, always around 36,5°C sublingually.

Mar 19th feeling sick, as if re-visiting CoV, and from then on severe night sweats 4:00-7:00 every night.

Around Mar 22nd swelling under left mamilla hurting and itching.

Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%

New Habits: Click for details of what I'm working on. Mar 24th: taking out "leg stretches" and "cold foods out of fridge" as that's OK at the moment, so down from 6 to 4.

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 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

Development

An overview of the new symptoms:

  • Histaminey burning was also triggered in Jan. (then from the T4 Feb and the non-CoV Mar).
  • I’ve been having a thirst/dryness headaches on and off since at least mid-Feb, despite drinking 3L = 100oz./d
  • my fingertips were extremely painful Jan/Feb, still have to watch out a bit.
  • my lip “fungus” started in January (often parallel to the fingertips), but still not gone.
  • The T4 has some energy, but 5 side effects to date, after having taken it a month and now having stopped it 10 days ago.
  • The “non-CoV” >3 weeks ago (whilst my wife had CoV) caused 13-14 new or severely increased symptoms from Mar 9th on for mainly 5 days, of which I still have 3 without break.
  • Severe night sweats since Mar 19th, when I seemed to have re-visited the “non-CoV” with feeling fluey sick again. However no temperature, always around 36,5°C sublingually.
  • Around Mar 22nd swelling under left mamilla hurting and itching.
  • Altogether needing +20-30% GABA to get the bladder pain & sinus burning under control…

JAB#3 (on Nov 7th) causing MCAS / histamine problems, esp. energy narrowed to (10-)15-20%, decreased to mostly 10-15% in January. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th.

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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

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.

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. Apr 4th: Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken theirs seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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.

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%.

Touch: :white_check_mark: Covid: :white_check_mark: Weather: Indoors :white_check_mark: Outdoors :white_check_mark:. Daylight lamp regularly on.
Last focal seizures: Mar 31st 19:00 (too little GABA, too strenuous meeting), Jan 15th 10:40 (from a pee urge, only 2nd “wave”). Jan 14th 23:58 (no trigger, praps missing out on .6g GABA Friday). Jan 5th (after being scolded for being hyper). Dec 11th: 1x. Nov 21st: 2x.
Last esophagus blocks: Mar 26th just the supps. Mar 23rd: Tiny bit of parsnip I think it was, had to get it out, had no patience to massage longer than 5-6’. Mar 13th (roughly) same as: Feb 26th: midday: block not waiting long enough with muesli after supps. Feb 20th eve: block from I think carrots resolved with massager. Feb 5th: From C-supps. Jan 19th: Sometimes do use massager a while to make sure. Jan 17th: I can take my B supps and then go to bed again atm. Jan 8th: Block after evening supps, maybe from twisting. Jan 7th: Testing if twisting before, while & after pills & food increases esophagus blocks Jan 6th: Slight blocks. Jan 5th: Medium block in evening. About 5x small blocks from pills around end of the year. Dec (20th, 15th) 11th (9th,) 1st, Nov 30th 2x, 29th 2x, (28th,) 24th, 22nd, 20th. Powder blocks in funnel if it’s too much in one go…
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 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms, 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing, surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, see what oncology says on Apr 24th and if it doesn't get better. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil in paraffin cream improves lips, but not totally. 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.

74-76kg - I look much skinnier now in the mirror, by the way. And becoming skinny might be the reason why I can do pull-ups again, too. 35,5-36,3°C. I thought <36°C is at night, but 13:35 I had 35,7°C too (tongue), Tue21:15 36,8°C.

Has the seeming de-hydration headache (despite 3L/d) to do with less pee frequency, urge and pain and with the high amount of GABA (from 2.4g to 4.2g!)?

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. Apr 4th: Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th.

Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Touch: :white_check_mark: Covid: :white_check_mark: Weather: Indoors :white_check_mark: Outdoors :white_check_mark:. Daylight lamp regularly on.
Last focal seizures: Mar 31st 19:00 (too little GABA, too strenuous meeting), Jan 15th 10:40 (from a pee urge, only 2nd “wave”). Jan 14th 23:58 (no trigger, praps missing out on .6g GABA Friday). Jan 5th (after being scolded for being hyper). Dec 11th: 1x. Nov 21st: 2x.
Last esophagus blocks: Apr 4th: Carrot, got it out quick. /ADD. Mar 26th just the supps. Mar 23rd: Tiny bit of parsnip I think it was, had to get it out, had no patience to massage longer than 5-6’. Mar 13th (roughly) same as: Feb 26th: midday: block not waiting long enough with muesli after supps. Feb 20th eve: block from I think carrots resolved with massager. Feb 5th: From C-supps. Jan 19th: Sometimes do use massager a while to make sure. Jan 17th: I can take my B supps and then go to bed again atm. Jan 8th: Block after evening supps, maybe from twisting. Jan 7th: Testing if twisting before, while & after pills & food increases esophagus blocks Jan 6th: Slight blocks. Jan 5th: Medium block in evening. About 5x small blocks from pills around end of the year. Dec (20th, 15th) 11th (9th,) 1st, Nov 30th 2x, 29th 2x, (28th,) 24th, 22nd, 20th. Powder blocks in funnel if it’s too much in one go…
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 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms, 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing, surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, see what oncology says on Apr 24th and if it doesn't get better. Tea tree oil salve since Mar 9th takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms since early March. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite. Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

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.

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. Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Tea tree oil salve since Mar 9th takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms since early March. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite. Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

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.

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. Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th.

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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Mar 13th (roughly) same as: Feb 26th: midday: block not waiting long enough with muesli after supps. Feb 20th eve: block from I think carrots resolved with massager. Feb 5th: From C-supps. Jan 19th: Sometimes do use massager a while to make sure. Jan 17th: I can take my B supps and then go to bed again atm. Jan 8th: Block after evening supps, maybe from twisting. Jan 7th: Testing if twisting before, while & after pills & food increases esophagus blocks Jan 6th: Slight blocks. Jan 5th: Medium block in evening. About 5x small blocks from pills around end of the year. Dec (20th, 15th) 11th (9th,) 1st, Nov 30th 2x, 29th 2x, (28th,) 24th, 22nd, 20th. Powder blocks in funnel if it’s too much in one go…
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 Apr 6th: My gyn(!): nothing on the sono, don't get it taken out, praps a mammography, keep the oncology-appt. on 24th. Apr 5th: wife's gyn says get a mamilla sono. Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more slow energy, but sinus burning & headache when more than 3% (on 27th), lost appetite and weight. Feb- bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

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.

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. Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Apr 5th: wife's gyn says get a mamilla sono. Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite, weight and sleep. Feb-bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, helpful, but never quite gone.
3% of T4 Feb 23rd-Mar22nd: Day #4 bit more than the days before: Slower energy, histamine-y sinuses and frontal headache. Decreasing improved all that again.

Development

Summary of last months:
NOV: 3rd CoV-jab: Slower more stable energy.
JAN: Lips burning since at least Jan 21st - fungus? Loss of appetite for the 1st time cos of the TCM recommendations.
FEB: T4 24.2.-23.3.: +Energy, bit appetite, some nausea, less sleep 8->7h/night.
Not sure when I lost so much weight, it was 78 some time Jan I think.
MAR: From “non-CoV” on 9th: cough, nothing on lung X-ray. More exhaustibility, despite energy underneath,
19th 2nd time “non-CoV”? Night sweats, more thirst, de-hydratation headaches, praps cos of the sweats/night sweats? Felt ill, but better after 10 days.
APR: Swelling 29th Mar, hurting and itching: GP doesn’t believe it can be the T4 so wants cancer checked. Surgeon says wait, wife’s gyn says sono, gyn says: nothing o be seen.
Remember these 3 when I’m at oncology on the 24th.

  • Remember spinal tumor
  • Low WBC didn’t interest the gyn.
  • GABA = serotonin down & histamine high, praps from T4 - didn’t bother saying that.

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. Apr 4th: Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Click for details: Update Apr 6th: My gyn(!): nothing on the sono, don't get it taken out, praps a mammography, keep the oncology-appt. on 24th. Apr 5th: wife's gyn says get a mamilla sono. Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite and weight. Feb-bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, helpful, but never quite gone.
3% of T4 Feb 23rd-Mar22nd: 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.

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. Apr 4th: Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite and weight. Feb-bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, helpful, but never quite gone.
3% of T4 Feb 23rd-Mar22nd: 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.

Development

‘Research’ today: No.
Lessons in self-care #631 Good that I was watching my “temperature” change and reacted quickly, even as it was I got a really bad sore throat, but immediately treated it with calendula essence, which helped pretty well, then several HWB.
Reasons to be cheerful #673 Night sweats is the 2nd to stop of at least 3 “B-symptoms” - which I’m sure are “just” 3%-T4 effects.
Simplified #79 Got the tray I take into the garden pretty complete, but still forget some things, so need to get into a routine to put supps and food on it first.

2023-04-10, Monday - Forgot my antihistamine, sleep & sinuses were OK tho, so I’ll test taking it every 2nd day, altho I can’t really afford to miss more sleep.

Exhaustibility “83%” = of 16h again (energy beyond):
R rest: 100% exhaustion 20% of the time (3h),
VS very slow: 60% exh. 20% of the time (3h),
S slow: 40% exhaustion 40% of the time (6h),
M medium: 20% exhaustion 20% of the time (3h),
Q quick: 0-10% exhaustion 0% of the time (0h)
(pre-fibro: 0% exhaustion 100% of the time.)

75kg (only weighing in the mornings from now on)

Food: 1st: 40+40% 2nd: 75% 3rd: 80%.

Sleep 85% / Feeling 85%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%
Successes: :trophy:
:zap: YoNi worked but I felt worse, as often when I “sleep in” rather than 7h. So should I stop putting it on the end?
:zap: If I take the B-supps before getting up and the C-supps upstairs before going out and just eat the morning meal in the garden everything is accelerated.
:zap: Laptop battery goes flat very quickly in the garden, but aside from taking a cable with me I’m trying just to use that to limit the time I use it.
:zap: Body temperature changes was the main issue today: I’ve stopped taking temperature, cos it’s always good. But fluctuating between now cold at night instead of sweating, and sweating now in the daytime instead of being cold and needing long johns. So fighting off sore throat, but getting better just by putting on the winter stuff at night. Overheating was no problem, cos that broken thermostat feeling made me want to alternate shower.

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. Apr 11th: CoV-cough and bladder seems to be recovering, T4-temperature/night sweats too, now appetite needs to recover weight... Apr 4th: Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning.
Apr 11th: CoV-cough and bladder seems to be recovering, T4-temperature/night sweats too, now appetite needs to recover weight…

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

Treatments

Click for details: Update Apr 9th: Night sweats have inside of 2 nights switched over to the opposite extreme: cold, needing full winter bedstuff & sore throat. Apr 6th: My gyn(!): nothing on the sono, don't get it taken out, praps a mammography, keep the oncology-appt. on 24th. Apr 5th: wife's gyn says get a mamilla sono. Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite and weight. Feb-bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, helpful, but never quite gone.
3% of T4 Feb 23rd-Mar22nd: 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.

Sleep 70% / Feeling 75%-ish / nausea 0%, fog 10%
Successes: :trophy:
:zap: Woke up at several times at 5 with burnt tongue after brushing teeth, so histamine high, first thought from mould in shed, then checked the banana and tuna I’ve been trying to increase my appetite and eating with: Banana is high in histamine (2) and tuna very high (3)!
:zap: No need to refrain from those, I’ll try DAO on them, been looking for some histaminey food I react to to try it, as I haven’t been using it for ages. “Just” have to wait till the burning stops, didn’t today…
:zap: Vague pains40% in left clavicula/shoulder and right hand will be from the gardening, a bit of exercising, Traumeel and time will heal → yep, better.

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. Apr 11th: CoV-cough and bladder seems to be recovering, T4-temperature/night sweats too, now appetite needs to recover weight... Apr 4th: Found out that we'd got CoV from a person who hadn't taken their's seriously and hadn't told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. 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! Down: 15th-21st 7 days, Up 22nd to 24th winning roughly 3:1, Unsure: 25th-31st: TT 2:2 or no play possible: 25th 2:2(?), (26th 0), 27th: 2:2, (28th 0 - ordered supps, not cellar), Down: 1st-2nd, 4th. Up: 3rd, 5th. Both: 6th-11th - sinuses, tongue, lips, runny, DAO helping. Cold: 12th. 13th: GI: HP supps? 14th: B3-Flushing up!? 15th: Runny nose, 16th-21st & 25th-26th…: Tongue off and on. 23rd-25th: Sore buttock (& leg) muscles like after the jabs since 23rd. 26th: Cold, pain & fatigue, energy from 18% to 10% since 19th. 27th: Bad. 28th: Bad to better. 29th: OK, considering. 30th: Foods slightly histamine-y. 31st: Still no appetite. 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. Mar 23rd still seemingly in the midst of a re-visit of the "CoV symptoms. Mar 24th still severest exhaustion with feverish ache despite energy, appetite increasing, bladder a bit better, cough not sure. Apr 4th: Found out that we’d got CoV from a person who hadn’t taken their’s seriously and hadn’t told us immediately that they had it: grrrrrrrr! Increasing GABA has stopped all bladder problems, but not yet all sinus burning. Apr 11th: CoV-cough and bladder seems to be recovering, T4-temperature/night sweats too, now appetite needs to recover weight…

Treatments: Antihistamine, and extra GABA from Nov 29th. Stopping the antihistamine at the turn of the year quickly caused sleep problems.

SLEEP (click for details): 6h01, up 4x (67'), deep. Histamine attack at 5 from foods, showering helped. No sweats, all winter stuff back out. ✅ ➔ Feeling 70% well, Ache 2 of 7 :x:, getting up: 80%/2 ✅. Nostrils 0-30% stuffy 100% of the night. Changed basic stiffness to st3 = 30%.

Treatments

Click for details: Update Apr 9th: Night sweats have inside of 2 nights switched over to the opposite extreme: cold, needing full winter bedstuff & sore throat. Apr 6th: My gyn(!): nothing on the sono, don't get it taken out, praps a mammography, keep the oncology-appt. on 24th. Apr 5th: wife's gyn says get a mamilla sono. Apr 3rd: surgeon cos of left mamilla swelling says wait 5 weeks, Mar 30th: lung X-ray shows nothing to explain my cough, Mar 29th GP says possibly B-symptoms. Mar 9th: Tea tree oil salve since takes the brunt off the lip hurt. Early March: Antihistamine back up to 10mg to curb T4-insomnia & histaminey symptoms. 3% of a T4 for thyroid Feb 24th till Mar 23rd: more energy, but lost appetite and weight. Feb-bloods: Ω3 needs increasing, much too low.

GP’s antifungal cream for my lips Feb 28th, then Mar 1st tea tree oil cream, helpful, but never quite gone.
3% of T4 Feb 23rd-Mar22nd: 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.
