Status Update - 12/5/12

It takes at least 2-3 days to recover from 1 day of going out.  Sigh.

Yesterday's sojourn took so much out of me I was knocked out till lat this afternoon.  I could apply for a job as Rip Van Winkle.  But the rest did me good as I woke up with only a marginally stuffy head and my nose seemed alright till after I had dinner, when it decided it wanted to apply for its role as Niagara Falls.

Bowel movements - Wonderfully improved and in fact I think the worse might be over.


Dermatitis check - Everything is still bad with the rash spreading outwards and more lesions and boils developing.  7.5/10.

The bruising has darkened on both inner elbows and my hip areas seemed to have developed bruises too.

Vision check - No lights today too but the eyes are still feeling tired and strained.

Pain check - The back seems slightly improved and the pain in the left ankle and heel have disappeared so it's not too bad today.  I'll peg it at about 5.5/10.

Hydration - Feel a little dehydrated today but it might be because I spent so many hours asleep.  Or it might be that the BBQ chicken from Cold Storage have some MSG in them.  I always suspected so but it is not in any significant amount that might cause me severe problems beyond the thirst and an occasion slight headache.

Mystery sweet taste in mouth check - It's back and with a vengeance.

Energy level - Today's biggest problem.  I am extremely tired today and barely had enough energy to make tea.  I keep wanting to go back to sleep and it is taking me everything to stay awake.  I need to pack my things and I can barely keep my eyes open ... sigh, it's a pathetic 3/10 today.

Tea was two BBQ chicken, bacon, avocado, lettuce and blue cheese sandwiches with an apple for dessert.  Yes, it tastes as good as it sounds.

OK, I give up.  I am going back to bed before I fall flat on my face.
