How am I feeling? Like I am near death. Honestly, it has been so freaky what's going on that I am getting nervous. My body feels like it's got a virus permeating throughout it, going into my bones and muscles down my neck, shoulders and back and is not able to get out. Last night I was up so much, one because my baby was awake a lot, and two, because I felt as though I had a fever, but I didn't. I just had that unsettled feeling you get when you have a fever and you are restless and want to move, but don't because you're so incredibly exhausted to begin with. Not knowing what to do, I got up, went into my kitchen and took a garlic pill and some ginger supplements after being inspired to do so. You see, last year I took this drawing class and the instructor was a cancer surviver and talked all about her health issues during our class, annoying to no end, but nevertheless somewhat beneficial to me. Anyway, she told us that the one food that is great for combatting cancer and a number of other diseases is garlic. When that thought crossed my mind as I lay there dwelling on what in the heck is happening to me, I remembered that I had some and figured why not. Take it and see what happens. It's nice having a little bit of every natural herb and supplement on the market. It's like having my own personal homeopathic pharmacy at my fingertips. Whenever something comes up like this, I can go into my cupboard and get what I need. Speaking of which, I need to get a Vitacost order in soon. They have the best prices on great organic natural stuff. Highly recommend them. OK back to my point.
So I had a really horrible night and could hardly pray I was so distracted by the feelings that have been coming over me. The nausea and vomiting stopped thank God, but no explanation as to why I got it in the first place. Just a passing thing I guess.
Yesterday I went to my chiro and he adjusted me which I needed tremendously, but he also recommended I start an RNA supplement along with aloe vera juice and something else from Standard Process to help with my gallbladder since it's been aggravated ever time I've visited him and he thought this one thing would help calm it down. I can't remember the name off hand since I didn't buy it there given he was out of stock. Doesn't matter though since I'm not taking it. What I am taking right now is Catalyn, Cataplex B, Omega 3, Calcium Magnesium, Vit D, sometimes a teaspoon of coconut oil and then the aloe gel. I offer up the pain it takes to swallow down some of this stuff since it is nasty! The texture is gag worthy. Ugh! How I pray that all of this suffering is doing some good in the spiritual world. That is the one way that I am surviving not losing my mind completely right now. For whatever reason, God is willing I go through this and I have to accept it, while trying to correct it, but also endure it with as much peace as I can. Not easy when you have three babes to care for who rely on you for everything. I have no time to rest save on the weekend when my husband is home, and even then he needs a break too. My house is going to pot, which I hate, but have no choice right now. There is only so much I can do and something has to take the hit so that's what I've chosen. My laundry is always behind and my ironing has been sitting around for weeks now. How I pray I will feel healthy again so I can get back to what I need to be doing, i.e. being a wife and mommy again.
I forgot to mention that I also when to my GP yesterday since I wanted to see what she'd say about all the things I've been going through and, lo and behold, she lived up my low expectations and told me just what I knew she would say, making me feel like a complete idiot. Oh, yes, all of my problems can be pointed to the fact that I have three children close together. Of course, my body is going to be tired and of course things are out of whack, that's to be expected. So no, everything else that I've experienced is just my oversensitive, hypochondriatic self taking things much to seriously. The blank stare she gave me when I told her what's going on and her telling me that's it's "normal" made me want to scream. I have determined that traditional docs are absolutely useless, i.e. unless you fit within the medical box that they think you should fit so nicely into. It's all such crap. The medical profession has fallen so far from what they are meant to be. They seem to care so little for people anymore. Everything is just a "what's your problem? here's a drug, now take it and shut up" attitude.
Today things went a little better. We went over to my husband's sister's home to attend mass offered by his priest brother in honor of the feast of St. Michael. It was a sacrifice to go since there was much to do around the house but I didn't care, we needed to get out and be with others. My neck is still very stiff and it hurts to move it a certain way and, again, I have no idea why. The muscles in my back near my sides feels like it's inflamed, or like I've pulled it from doing strenuous exercise despite the fact that I haven't exercised at all since last Monday. This body of mine, I'll tell ya.
Well, on the positive side, I had a lovely day snuggling with my kids, esp my little boy who is such a mommy's boy and a veritable cute pie. Nothing beats his hugs and kisses. Laying in bed with all my kids is something I could do all the time. Such happy times. Thank you Jesus for these better moments in my life, how I treasure them, now more than ever. Bless us Lord, and keep us under the shadow of Thy wing.
Planning on seeing a 79 year old Indian doctor who lives quite a distance to help treat these symptoms.He's said to be good at helping treat Lyme. His name S. Chandra Swami. Here's hoping he can give me some relief.
Good night y'all.
