Saying that, my energy is pretty good today. Don't need a nap. I feel fine. Good enough to put one foot in front of the other, so I'm grateful for that.
If I continue to feel good I'll go to yoga tonight. I do Bikram yoga and, although I'm struggling to overcome longstanding knee tendinitis I am slowly trying to carefully work back into it, and am having to invent "restorative Bikram yoga" along the way -- not an easy task.
Speaking of my knee injury, I made a list of my ailments, which was actually difficult to do. Took me awhile to remember them all.
My personal train wreck:
Primary:
- Hypothyroid (currently taking 112 mcg Synthroid, that's synthetic thyroid hormone)
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis (antibodies to my own thyroid -- go figure)
- Adrenal fatigue
- Pituitary fatigue (not sure if that's what it's called, medically speaking)
Secondary:
- Minor rash on stomach
- Spaciness, forgetfulness (that's the thyroid)
- Slow healing of wounds
- Knee tendinitis
- Nerve pain in feet
- Fungus on left index finger
- Dry scalp
- Dry skin on face
- Red skin on face
- Occasional boils on face/neck
- Acne
- Burgeoning crows feet
- Wrinkes on forehead
- A few gray hairs
- Brittle nails
- Collapsed arches in both feet
- Pelvic instability/strained psoas muscle
- Clicking/pain in wrists
- Cramping muscle between thumb & forefinger
- Recurrent irritation at earring site
- Geographic tongue which comes on when stressed/ill
- Strained upper hamstring
- Strained adductors
- A few pounds additional weight (10?)
- Low bladder capacity
- Disturbed/light sleep
