Day 20

Wow I have to tell you, I woke up this morning...and wondered: "Why am I blogging? I can't write, I really don't have much to say, BUT then I was reminded I am logging my recovery and that is all that this blog is about...telling you my thoughts, what I am doing, How this is helping my life and health. Strange how having all of you reading along is helping...

I felt prompted to take my blood sugar today, which had been running: 310-325 fasting.

WOW THIS MORNING IT WAS 146 fasting!!!!!!!!!!! NOW TELL ME THAT THIS IS NOT WORKING!!!!!!!

The Fibromyalgia muscle pain is a little less and there is not so much throbbing.

Less headaches except when I am detoxing but I can tell when it is because of that.

Lost a total of 42 pounds, 33 from January and 9 from 20 days ago. YIPPEE!

Interstitial cystitis (IC): My pain has been between a 3-5 from about a 9 of a 10 scale. When someone says 10 it means there has never been any pain worse than that for them. The stinging ( most of the time! ) has gone away! I can wait to go to the bathroom for up to 50 minutes from 10-15 minutes. The pressure is still there and the bladder has not grown in capacity...but this is so exciting to me, I feel like I can function somewhat.

My liver: Well it usually swells every day, sometimes twice it's size according to the ultrasounds. Sometimes I can't move, But lately only a little uncomfortable and not unbearable pain.

The rest is the same form November 3rd post, if you want to compare.

How thrilling! I am seeing progress! Who would have thought, that the One who created our bodies...would have provided a adequate fuel for them, one that not only enhances our lives, but repairs the damages we have done to them! I have searched high and low for results like this for 8 years. It's so good to be writing this...and so good to have you share it with me...

Have a great day, I am

Until tomorrow
