Re: Blog Thread IIIa : Look Who's Blogging Now
Wasteroo:
About an hour ago I fell off a couch onto a cement floor while trying to reach some microphones, and I think I might have possibly broken something in my thumb! It hurts pretty bad and I'm currently typing one handed with ice on my other hand, but I'm holding off from going to the doctor until I'm sure I'm legitimately damaged and not just being a baby
Eris:
I wrote a story for the first time in a fair few months. It took forever, ended up different to what I was going to write originally, and now I am super nervous because people I know will be reading this, and maybe some people I don't know. I am such a loser.
Jace:
I really liked it a lot Hannah! I had a very strong mental picture because of the way you described the mother.
Blog news: Dudes I went to a LARP and had a great time and I can't wait for it to be Saturday again so I can do more fighting. I bought some fabrix to make a shirt and I'm gonna look into making some leather armor and stuff. It is so ridiculously fun.
Lunchbox:
Last night my boyfriend's mother told me I really need to take my food intolerances seriously. After my boyfriend heartily agreed, I realised that me being sick all of the time isn't just my problem. It must suck for him to have at least part of his life ruled by my faulty stomach.
I've never been to a doctor about it, rather self-diagnosing over the years and not doing a very good job of keeping an eye on what I eat. As a result, what I do eat makes me ill pretty much every single day. I'm so used to it, I just ignore the fact that I've been sick as soon as the pain goes away.
So! Today I've started a food diary to make note of things that make me sick (I tried this last year but only managed two weeks) and hopefully I'm going to go to a doctor who can give me a fancy new breath test to determine what intolerances I actually do have. Since I know that tomatoes and tea, two of my favourite things in the whole world, do actually trigger my symptoms, I'm going to do my best to cut down.
This is going to be an absolute bitch.

Lunchy, if you want any advice, give me a shout and I can probably help a little. Tomatos and tea are two of of my big big things as well as spicy foods and things with lots of spices. I know you are a big tea person and probably can't do without, but see if you can give decaf a try? Tetley is great for decaf and it doesn't taste different, just not as strong perhaps.
Even two weeks of food diary would probably help your doctor. When I had to do mine, I hated it and felt judged every step of the way and I am glad I only had to do it for two weeks. I had to write down everything I ate and how it made me feel and from that my doctor diagnosed me within five minutes. I hope they figure out what it is. If it's not an allergy, the intolerances can get easier. I am a lot better now than I was a year ago because I essentially cut everything out for a few months and introduced things back in moderation and stopped if I felt it made me sick.
Do give me a shout if you want to have a chat or anything!
