Not so bad

I had my MRI and I found out that it is open at both ends. When I looked up the machine was very close to my face. I just kept my eyes closed. The time went by quickly.
I have 2 cysts on my right liver that are about 2 inches.  Jogging is out since they rub up against my ribs.
Now comes the exciting part of what I can and can't do as far as exercise.

Getting my tincture to help reduce the size of these cysts.

We will see where this adventure takes me next.

MRI scan

I am getting ready for my MRI scan tomorrow. I am a bit scared of closed in places so we will see how I do with being strapped down and stuck in a tube for 30 minutes. All of this just to rule out cancer.

Flare up of my IBS

I was at a restaurant in Sedona. A fancy one. They said that they could make some gluten free stuff for me. I ordered a couple of items. With in 10 minutes my IBS got inflammed the rest of the night and part of today was not fun. This flare up wasn't that bad. Like some of my friends some of my flare ups can last days to weeks.
Need to watch restaurants that don't have a gluten free menu.

Before thinking you are in the clear

I had an interesting experience the last two days.
I thought I had worked on and was able to control and have more patients.

A couple of nights of no sleep put that on hold.

Lesson learned:

1.Always have to be observant with patients whether I am fully or halfway awake.
2.It's harder to see people as people when one is tired.
3.If you slip up just apologize and move on because there is always tomorrow.

Was sooo hungry

A couple of days ago I had skipped my 10 snack and by the time lunch rolled around my blood sugars were getting low.  I happen to be at a McDonald's inside a Walmart. I had fries and the hamburger patty. (The hamburger bun is deadly. LOL.)  It helped bring my blood sugars back to normal but I don't think my body liked all that fatty food at one time.
No nausea but my colon was a bit upset. I didn't have to rush to the bathroom. Yeah!!
I like going gluten free.

Usually flare up by now

I have gone 3 nights with very little sleep due to circumstances beyond my control. Usually by now I would be at home having a bad flare up with my IBS. So far so go. I was able to go out for a bike ride today.

Amazing what happens when I got rid of those food allergens. I almost feel normal.
