31st Day

I was at the GP today. She has remitted me to chest x-ray (have to wait for getting an appointment there too), and asked me to eat normally (incl. gluten) so that a blood test can be made next week to rule out if I have gluten-intolerance and/or lactos-int.
Started taking Lyrica 50 - 50 - 100mg (morning, midday, before sleep) bc 50 for hte whole day didn't seem to last without painin the afternoons, evenings.
The scales are showing less and less. Am I opening up and getting rid of the many kilograms of pure fear and cover-up? :-O
Looking forward to eat lots of vegetables and fruit next week! :-D

14th Day

Got a new job, substituting occasionally. Didn't drink coffee at all, collegues started becoming curious if I was normal otherwise....hehehe. I worked till 21:00 - little bit confusing when working, I forget about my fishoil capsules, or to drink enough water. Kind of difficult to have so many things in my head, I definetelly have concentration problems! :-) I got a new prescription today: higher dosage of Lyrica (100mg now from 50). Lyrica (Pregabalin) is for neuropthical pain and GAD ( Generalised Anxiety Disorder), and my doctor believes I have that which makes my back and shoulder hurt a lot.
