I skimmed through the posts, wont even try to comment on most of

them, theres just so much going on here. :)Too much to keep up with.

Reading and researching about how your body works can do alot to help

understand what is happening to you. From what I have been reading

this disorder is about imbalances. Seretonin plays a big part in

those imbalances. Not only does seretonin affect depression but it

plays a role in your sleep levels and in that way it affects your

muscles and their abilities to heal from the daily wear and tear

that we do not realize is happening, simply it is needed to reach a

sleep level that allows muscles to heal. So it makes sense if your

body isn't handling seretonin correctly you will be depressed, and

have sleep problems..and muscle problems. Viscious little cycle huh?

It's one of my little cycles, and boy it seems to me that I have

lots of those going on!

Have any of the rest of you noticed your own cycles? It's interesting

if you keep a journal or calendar and keep track of your daily life .

I am thinking maybe someday those journals are going to make break

throughs for those who pay attention to what is going on .

The suggestion about the rice bowl was right on. I have multiple

allergies and there is nothing worse than eating something and

feeling your throat swelling shut (anaphalactic shock). I would

suggest you find out what it was because unknown food allergies can

kill you. I do the same with shellfish. Peanuts is also another

common allergy that can be very serious since peanut oil is heavily

used in the food industry.

About house cleaning, it would be nice if I had the energy to keep

a GOOD HOUSEKEEPING house, but I can't. When my aunt was dying

from an estrogen type cancer I asked her, if she could have changed

anything what would it be? She told me, " I wouldnt have worried

about if my house was clean, I would have played more with my

children! " So ..thank you Aunt Sue for your wisdom. I can simplify

my life so I have less to deal with, and I refuse to apologize if I

don't live up to others' standards.

Its Saturday! Im off to the fruit market and grocery store, I hope we

all have a good weekend ! deb
