Oh

No more spoons. Just like that :-(



ETA: OK, for future reference I should record:

* Overheating with sudden and extreme perspiration
* Shortness of breath (not fun at all)
* Puffiness, especially around eyes and hands
* Extreme muscle weakness, fatigue, and loss of sensation, bordering on paralysis, particularly in the arms.
* Hands and feet clawing

But no headache or sleepiness. No nausea. Only medium loss of IQ, but rapid drop under pressure. Bye bye coping skills.

A few hours later fingers are back on the move, but shakey. Can't straighten them yet. Breathing improved.

Headache kicking in now. Starting to get contraction pain around the jaw and sinus pressure, plus tight neck ligature. Might be a little dehydrated too.

Note to self: Tim Tams will hurt you. Not immediately, but they will find you and break you.

I *must* take tomorrow quietly.

Ugh. I hate that.

I ran out halfway home walking the lad back from vacation care today - just like that, and had to start using those ghost spoons, which is always tricky.

But I find it hard to bring myself to drive _a block_, and that would only cut the walk in half anyway (because vac care is a long way from the nearest carpark), so I can't quite see the point, and we only have one car now anyway so I don't always have one.

Glad you found another spoon, but be careful, eh? It's best to keep some in reserve, if you can.

This one was all my own fault, i.e. food-related, but I have an incredible ability to forget how badly I can be affected by a treat. The delayed reaction does not help the learning process! At least now I have a vastly improved understanding of what's going on.

I've really enjoyed these extra spoons, but I know I have to take things quietly for a day or two to regroup. Fingers crossed for the planned Body Balance class on Saturday.
