Not the least bit surprisingly, I didn’t sleep well at all. Woke
up several times, once or twice to pee, and I’m pretty sure traffic got in on
the wake-up calls as well. I’m experimenting with having Alexa play different
sounds along with the main sound machine, but I’m not sure that’s going to
help. My fatigue is too extreme to be just traffic and having to pee, and I
know it’s low thyroid as well.
Also, I’m now thinking my nails do have a fungus but more likely
some kind of disease. The purplish-brown spot on the thumb is the same but It
seems the tannish-colored spots are “moving” around at random. I’m a pretty
observant person and I did not have that spot on the right side of my left
middle finger yesterday that I’m now seeing which means part of the problem is
the nail bed. I haven’t been doing anything different or putting anything on my
nails that could do that, and I gloved up doing the incense.
I want to question whether or not I really do have polycythemia
because that’s not something that should be on my record if I don’t. I agree
with Tom that even though I do have a few of the symptoms I read can be
associated with that disease, I was probably just dehydrated and that elevated
my RBC. Polycythemia is a rare blood cancer for fuck’s sake. It’s not dire like
breast or cervical cancer, but I don’t want something like that on my record if
my numbers were elevated due to a little dehydration. No, I don’t want to get a
second opinion if she says that is what it is, but I’ve always believed that
it’s important that things you don’t have not be on your record and things you
do have be on your record so that in the event of an emergency, not that I expect
any, doctors are as up-to-date as possible.
Read more on PV and the right upper ab pain I sometimes get
isn’t likely connected if I do have it because it’s not only too low, but PV is
on the other side. PV patients’ spleens sometimes enlarge, so that’s why they
can get pain there.
Made the incense, and it’s a good thing I saved the cutter
because I had to cut the oil in order to completely coat the sticks. The 4-oz
bottles weren’t quite enough, so I took each scent and poured half a bottle on
the sticks, which are in tin pans, then I filled the rest of the bottle with
cutter and poured the whole thing on the sticks. Let’s just say it smells damn
good in here and I don’t smell any trace of rodents!
The Buttered Rum, Cedarwood and Suntan Lotion smell right on.
The Coffee Caramel and Creamy Chocolate Cupcake also smell as they should. The
Blueberry almost smells sugary and I would never know that the Merlot was
Merlot. It almost smells like cherry candy. The Mayan Musk is absolutely
beautiful, and the Earl Grey Tea is good but has a hint of lemon in it which I
don’t usually care for. Still has a nice refreshing smell to it. I’m Too Sexy
is hard to describe. It almost has hints of Mecca or Majmua in it. Fortunately,
it’s all good. There isn’t anything here that smells bad.
Even though it’s not like I ignore them, I sometimes feel guilty
for getting pets. Not the fish but the rats and pigs. I feel like I’m too tired
to give them much attention, and on days I’m not, I’m in a hurry to catch up on
things I know I’ll soon be too tired to deal with once again.
Tom’s up now and we chatted some. We both agree a lot of the
fatigue is low thyroid and that while traffic doesn’t help, it’s not all that.
My joints are getting stiff too, and oh, the brain fog. :-( I’m thinking of
taking full doses until I feel the anxiety setting in since fatigue is still
better than that, and I now have a better sense of how to control it by
lowering my dose a touch. Since I’ve gone weeks in the past on full daily doses
without issue, why deprive myself until and if I get anxious? I’ll take full
doses, make sure to do my EFT daily, then back down to 50s when I start getting
bad until the spell passes.
