Dyed my eyelashes black, and while it's definitely noticeable, it’s not quite as noticeable as I had hoped. Maybe I can touch them up some more later on and darken them in more. There's plenty of stuff left over, so if this turns out to last a while, then it was an excellent buy. This way, I don't have to put mascara on as much, which is messy and hard to do with shitty vision.

Today I felt almost the opposite of yesterday. I can't say I was cold at all, but I definitely don't feel like I'm burning up. I don't know—maybe feeling like I was on fire yesterday didn't have anything to do with my thyroid. I just hope that cutting my waiting time by 15 minutes like I did yesterday won't affect labs much, if at all.

I'm going easy on the vitamin D until it gets a little closer, although the barramundi fish I had provides 80% of the daily recommendation of vitamin D, so it's not like I should be that low on it. I've only got a few more days until I go to the lab, though. I just hope I'm not that hypo and that I'm at least under 10.

This was the first time I had barramundi fish, and it was okay, although it didn't really taste much like fish. I can see why they recommend it for those just getting into fish. I probably won't get it again, though, because I like my fish to taste like fish.

Slept better last night, and my AHI score is still good. Still no chipmunks either. The only problem is that if I flop onto my back—which I fortunately don't do very often—I might snore because 4 isn't that much pressure. I mean, it's still a fairly decent gush of air, but not like 10.

Once again I have fairly decent energy, and I have no idea why. Let's just say I'm not complaining! It could be that my CF is in temporary remission or one or more of the tweaks I've made. I'll eventually know just how much the CoQ10 may have a hand in it, because when I run out, I'm not going to get more right away. I want to see if the fatigue returns, if it doesn't return before I run out. If it does, then that's my biggest answer as far as giving me more energy.  That's my first guess, because it's hard to believe the CPAP is suddenly giving me energy, or that my thyroid is in range. Oh, to be able to tolerate being in range! But that's an 11-year dream destined never to come to fruition. Still, I think of how ballistic I'd go with happy tears if I saw numbers in green instead of red, and oh, I'm not gonna bother dreaming.

The only other problem with the CPAP is that it's giving me an earache in my good ear. I read up on what I could do about it, and I'll definitely do what's within my control. Since the pressure is already lowered, I will use my saline spray and maybe up the humidity a bit. It may be humid outside, but it's not humid in the house.
