Nov 7, 2021
450a woke thinking it was later. Left forearm muscles very tight and cramping . Whole arm throbbing. Feel like I broke a fever. Entire body stiff and achy with slight stinging. Low back throbbing. Sinuses slightly congested. Maybe I should completely eliminate dairy to see if that’ll ease the sinuses. Thirsty. Yucky taste in mouth – almost metallic.
Song: 🎶When you’re worried and you can’t sleep just count your blessings instead of sheep and you’ll fall asleep counting your blessings.🎶
John 7-8, 1 Timothy 2:1-2,
Far vision got weird blurry for few moments I’m fading fast… having trouble keeping awake.
Laid down after lunch. Out quickly.
Hurting something awful. Exhausted.
Resting longer than intended, but I need extra rest.
Slowly getting better with playing songs for Christmas cantata. Forcing myself to learn a new song. Have few trouble areas I need to work on. Also need to arrange music so it flows better for me. May cut out a song to simplify for me. Still can only focus on one thing barely at a time and if something catches me off guard my whole rhythm is thrown off.
Brain feels mushy. Thinking foggy. Arms quite swollen. Left arm cramping and throbbing fiercely. Need to rest a while.
Sinuses slightly congested. Back of neck hurts. Shoulders ache. Hands, wrists, and forearms swollen and throbbing. Left arm still feels bruised, but not as bad. Back aches. Legs slight stinging and crampy throbbing. Headache. Feet tingling. Tired. Periodic sharp stabbing pain in top rt of head.

Worked in yard for few minutes. Got some trash bagged up and some limbs burned. Entire back throbbing. Icy stinging sensation in middle and lower back. Left shoulder and arm throbbing.
Trying some vitamins out for a friend this week. I thought they were just vitamins (my brain didn’t connect dots until after I got my sample pkg), but they’re for weight loss. I could stand to lose several pounds but it’s going to be challenging to remember everything. Drink lots of water!!! Eat breakfast and lunch 4 hours apart. Take vitamins 20 minutes after those meals. We’ll see how it goes. Current weight 205.
Took first 2 pills. Gave me a bunch of energy, but so made me very jittery. I don’t like feeling like this. I’m not taking 2nd dose. Have drunken 48 oz fluids already.
Working on trying to get under arm stains out of Dezirae’s uniform shirt.
Also, working preparing things for Ladies mtg tomorrow.
150 left arm and shoulder throbbing like toothache. Center chest icy sensation not cold to touch yet. Tired. Hands swollen and throbbing. Feet chilly even though have socks on and under blanket. Head hurting. Upper back stinging throbbing. Sharp pains in abdomen. Ouch!
325 starting to feel feverish. Had Dezirae feel forehead. Says I feel warm.
My whole body feels like a swollen blob. Did too much today. This is frustrating.
Took 4 ibuprofen. Temp 97.4
1030 exhausted. Stinging pain thru body.
Thankful for:
1. Joe offering to drive to Dezirae’s piano lesson.
2. Able to get deodorant stains out of Dezirae’s shirt

330 woken by pain from both arms cramping and stomach pain. Skin extra sensitive – hair on neck feels like razor blades. Cold. Sinuses slightly congested.
Song: You know better than I
Can’t sleep…doing some research. Discovered some PEA supplements may contain peanut meal which can be hazardous for people with peanut allergies.
The PEA super I’m currently taking is supposed to be allergen free.

9:30 exhausted fading quickly. Need a nap.
Left arm feels like I either sprained it or have nerves pinched. Left wrist and hand swollen. Low back throbbing. Feet chilly.
Day 2 of pills. Not as jittery today, but skin from shoulders up super extra sensitive. Couldn’t let hair down on neck. It felt like razor blades and then being bit up by ants when it touches my skin. Super frustrating. Still only taking one set of pills. Did drink 96 oz of fluids.
Ladies mtg went well.
Forehead itchy. Upper arms itchy. Super exhausted. Left eye itchy. Low back throbbing. Head and neck hurt. Thirsty.
Fading fast
