*~*Lucky*~*

The good days remind me of what I am aiming for

I am trying to see it like this, otherwise the to and fro of good days and bad would do my head in

'Count your blessings'

I'm trying to

I managed 3 or 4 good days in a row - then was hit by an insane migraine Friday afternoon (worst in years, my little finger went numb, I was severely nauseous and dehydrated, could barely stand, not to mention the pain in my head which, well, derr...)
and again Saturday afternoon (but not as bad...phew!!).

Today I am clear of mind, but slept soundly for an hour or more this afternoon, sometimes you just have to give in

I have been back to GP Matt

Saturday appointment, oooh...progressive ;)

NO CUSHINGS DISEASE - Thank whoever for that

Would prefer no more pills thanks

He is testing me for heavy metals - lead and mercury.
The super dooper mouthguard I wear to bed to 'stop me from snoring' (it doesn't always work) has stained where one of my fillings is, so basically it's leaking something into my system. Borrelia and co can be harder to kill with heavy metals in the system.
Gosh he's an amazing GP.
I could go in there and ask to be tested from bubonic plague and he'd probably do it :P



I have just read of yet another child diagnosed with Lyme on the ME/CFS support group page.
This particular sweetheart has barely been able to sit up for the last few years, unable to get dressed most days etc.
Again, I say not everyone has Lyme BUT

I personally believe CFS/ME is a nasty, godawful SYMPTOM of something else.
Usually infection of some kind.
How sad that yet another family have suffered for 6 long years, and will now have to suffer more as their child is so ill from this shit.
How is this fair????


We have some Chookies - 3 in fact - Marlene, Charlene and Darlene ;)
Possum is loving it, he has only wanted chickens since he was about 5.
The thought of having something else to look after was far too much for me for a very long time.
I'm kind of ok with it now, as long as the boys are willing to help me out.
Cruelty free eggs are awesome :)

They have an extra huge run and cosy house which we have fenced, as the naughty jealous blue heeler found it necessary to run at them and bark.
Max is shit scared of them, it's hilarious!!
Curiosity gets the better of him though, and he sneaks up the side of the garden bank and spies on them - he's so cute!

Trying out a few new recipes as well, sick of cooking the same old stuff.
This turned out really nice, but then the nasty, nasty migraine struck.
Have frozen the rest of it as I'm not sure I can eat it again yet:

Thai Red Curry Veggies

Gluten free noodles by the way - it's that 'Slim Pasta' the Angel Hair variety.

Going to try a green curry one next that has mushrooms and lemongrass, then a nice cauliflower recipe that I found.

Apart from this I have been keeping to myself really.
Sometimes I just run out of words for conversation.

Take Care,
