07-19-09 to 07-25-09

Had a relatively PF week until yesterday 07-25-09 had CH attack 3kip was able to fight through it without preventative meds. Also woke up at 12:30am with another CH attack this one was a bit more intense 4kip, but I was very groggy so I just went back to sleep. If they are mild enough & I'm tired enough sometimes I can get back to sleep and thankfully avoid the pain that way. Didn't have a lot of nasal congestion with this one so that made it easier as well.

I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch, but with the new herbals I've added it seems to be lessening the number of CH attacks I get and their severity. (Keeping my fingers and toes crossed that this is true.)

I did have to stop one of the herbals/supplements I had added, which was Magnesium Citrate due to digestive issues, that's what I get for having a persnickety digestive system. I can't drink milk, I can't eat banana's or anything that has potassium in it higher than 40mg due to severe pain, yes this includes eating too many/much potatoes. I think I must have OD'd on Banana's as a kid or something...
I used to love to eat Peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
Anywhoooo... the only supplement/herbal I've taken off my list is the magnesium and the other herbals/supplements (see last weeks post for list) I've keep in my daily regime, seem to be helping.


On the lighter side of things... Have you seen this ??

I guess even alligators can enjoy a day or two at the beach.
Who would have guessed???


Until next week I'm wishing you have Pain Free Days and Nights all week long!!
