I have so many peculiar things going on (like all of you), but Sunday was just odd and now I'm questioning if this is something that could be ME related or well I just don't know...
I was feeling like ass Sunday, I have this thing where it feels like the back of my brain is trying to push it's way out of my skull.... it's a kin to dizzy and it "seems" to happen when I sense movement, like a train, sound, or oddly at the end of the day. It also happens when I lay on my left side (Lupus?). But that's not what this story is about.... ha
So I was feeling dizzy and weird Sunday and I had some new small sores on my leg and arm (left side as well) and I decided that I wasn't going to let it get the best of me and that despite feeling horrid I was going to push my body as hard as I could and go out and do things like plant, shovel, etc. I had read something here about Sunlight and copper and I thought well if I have too much copper in me this might be helpful despite my body not wanting to participate......
So it was more difficult than it should be, but i just kept pushing (mind over matter) and as the day progressed I became less dizzy and I sweated a little....not as much as I would have before stopping all medications, but enough to make me feel like that was a positive. When I was on ambien, I was sweating constantly, my hair was drenched at all times, but after I stopped it, the sweating came to a total halt which seemed odd, but..... what do I know? Not much.
Now here's where I'm really confused, I came in sat for a few minutes to cool down then went up to take my daily scalding hot shower and while in the shower, the glands in my neck below my jaw swelled up a lot. so much so that I couldn't swallow water without a great deal of pain. I just can't stress how painful my neck was and it was driving me nuts because it was also itchy. I spent a few hours just scratching it. I went to bed and was mostly recovered by morning.
I'm fairly convinced that it was the sun that caused the nodes to swell, but all this has done is further confuse me. It is my hope that someone here may have some kind of thought on this that could help me gain some insight.
sorry for being so lengthy, but like most of you, i think that most everything is a clue to what is at the root of each symptom and I guess that's my way of saying maybe more is more in this case.
be well
