Back

The days that I have been upstairs I actually have only watched some TV and listened a bit to a spoken book. I was much too tired for something else. I really really missed my cats a lot and so it really sucked that I couldn't see them those 4 days. Luckily they were all happy to see me again, also the little ones. Luna (blue/crème and white kitten) almost always lays beside me since the beginning. She really tends toward me and I was afraid that because of those EPD-days she would tend towards Henk because I wasn't there for 4 days. Luckily she stayed loyal to me and so she didn't crossed over to Henk.

03/24/2003: I have spoken to dr. v. Montfort last week because eating really sucks lately. I get really nauseous when I smell warm food and if I do try it I get stomach pain and become sick.
Since the EPD I get sick from the smell of cooking, but I thought that this would go away in a few weeks. However because it continues and only gets worse I called dr. v. Montfort anyway.
A few weeks ago my mom was here and she was preparing some meat for Henk. I got so sick of the smell that I even almost fainted and had to flee out of the house. Unfortunately it wasn't really warm outside and so I have been freezing outside for a couple of hours... the cooking smell just isn't gone immediately.
I thought I had food aversion again, as I had a year back (see 'Painkillers'), but dr. v. Montfort doubts this. According to him food aversion is something psychic and that wouldn't be with me so it should be something else... he wasn't comfortable with it, also because I lost 35 kilo's the previous time.
I now have to make sure that I drink plenty enough water and get my vitamins and minerals by the supplements I use. For now I may not eat diner. I may not force it and have to eat just bread, because this I can eat without any problem. If possible I also have to eat as much as uncooked food as possible... unfortunately there isn't much uncooked food I tolerate. At least the bread tastes me well and so I eat that to stop the hunger feeling.

You know what's amazing?! For some weeks now I grave for 2 eggs each day and this really smells a lot but still I can tolerate that... ??? According to Lia and dr. v. Montfort this can point to the fact that I need another vitamin B12 injection, because there appears to be vit. B12 in the egg yoke. So I called my gp for a B12-injection and yep... no more graving for eggs!
The last injection was in January, so it indeed was about time for my next shot.

08/18/2003: Dr.v.Montfort was also willing to do ft3 (thyroid gland) test. I had already asked this my gp, but he didn't want to because my TSH is normal (3,1). However that shouldn't mean anything and so I wanted a decent test. Because my gp didn't want to, I asked dr.v.Montfort and he agreed, he even thinks it's a good idea. I had to save my 24 hour urine. This test is something new and special, at least here in the Netherlands and it must be great to see if you have trouble with your thyroid. At the end of this week I should have the results.

08/28/2003: The thyroid test was okay, my ft3 was 2171.40 while the normal value has to be between 1894 and 3003... so mine is normal. Actually I didn't expect anything else, so I am not disappointed or so.
