Shortly after my last post I started to have a relapse of something that happened a couple months ago. At that time I called 911. My hands started to curl up and my heart was racing... and I just felt wrong. The first time it happened the paramedics told me I was close to passing out.
Upon talking to Andy this afternoon and telling him what was going on, he said I didn't sound right and literraly ordered me not to drive B to ballet... he came home and did it instead even though that made her a bit late. I had some Ezekiel bread with butter, ate a banana, and took a Xanax in the meantime. Things are still not ok, though a bit better... he says I sound better. He is playing at the river w/ J while waiting for B to get done with her class. I just called and asked him to pick me up some Wendy's chili... that is a direct source of protein and I will find out if that helps. I am 1/2 pound less than I was this morning also. I cannot lose weight this rapidly... I shouldn't lose weight to begin with.
I took my BP and it is still low but not too low, 109/80. My heart rate was high though. I don't know if it is an anxiety/panic attack coupled with not enough of something or not.
I hate not understanding what is happening. The truth is, I didn't really sleep last night due to a last minute staffing request for my business that I was worried about. The Virginia Tech tragedy has made my business that much more busy and we have a big event this weekend. Praise God I am blessed with amazing employees and have everything is staffed now, but the stress of the events this weekend coupled with the wedding this weekend, and family coming I think is affecting me even though it is good stress. I am figuring out my new reality these days. I really only had about 3 hours of sleep last night and my tendency to just go without remembering to eat right is probably playing a big part into whatever is happening to me.
I want to stay true to this experiment, but I don't want to be dangerous. Something is wrong right now, and the only thing I can guess is that I am lacking in something. My hands, feet, and arms are a bit tingly still, and my hands still want to curl up.... I am going to eat whatever I think I need tonight and try to get a good night sleep. Tomorrow is a new day.
...the Me God knitted together ...the Me underneath the health issues ...the Me capable of living to the fullest potential that God blessed me with and desires for me to use.. ...to live, love, and laugh... ALL TO HIS GLORY!
