Countdown

I started this week with five Tibetan rites!!! Ouch! Am I really only 45? No further comments...

And continued Monday in the nearby lab... Not such a good idea to go into one without physician's order for a blood check-up as one might heavily disturb their functioning... Briefly, from "not possible in Belgium", with a lot of patience & sound (and annoying) questions... it became possible. And I've got the results on Tuesday evening... 

Lab results • 17 May 2010 vs. previous (2 pages):  1st & 2nd

• White blood cells count increased - infection on board? • Slightly too much sugar & bad cholesterol!?!

• Thyroid parameters within normal • Iron - low  • Vitamin D - barely present although rising • Well, it's a high time for a change!

On Tuesday... I've got an order from my physician, for my forthcoming thyroid specialist consultation & info that I won't have it with "the best" but only with her assistant... although she'll supervise the whole thing. And a brief story how this "the best one" has much worse thyroid story than mine is but she's keeping her thyroid safely inside of her... I don't wonder why any longer... And I'll do all I know & feel to keep mine "in" as well. Oooo... I've also got a very suspicious "yes, I'll follow your health status during your cure", with a request, "don't start it before your RDV with endo as they might want to run some additional test..." Ugh, OK.

Later, in my herbal shop, Desmecht, I've spent a lot of time buying another bag of herbs for my teas (I still miss "pimpernel" which can't be ordered in Belgium at present!) and ordering hawthorn tincture (it'll be ready on 25th). And I couldn't leave without a huge bottle of St. John's wort oil for our backs & massage... ;-) Shoping trip to Colruyt's Bio-Planet store proved to be the very best decision - black radish finally found (!), and a few days worth stock of carrots and... beet root is safely at home as well.

During Wednesday night, I woke up at 2 a.m., suffocating... Ugh... I seriously need to get rid of this... Fine, I start this Friday!
