OTHER SYMPTOMS:
- slight burn in tummy.
DAY SO FAR :
- 7:am woke up fine. Laying down, especially in the center of the bed where it doesnt dip seems to be the only comfortable position for me. Standing, sitting, laying in my usual grooves offer some discomfort.
- 7:15 am - iodine with companion nutrients (incl wegman's wit C tabs)
- 7:30am - Roomie said it may be a pinched nerve of sorts, so I raised my keyboard so I am standing.
- 7:50am - Wven walking around the apt, I felt tension still.Standing for just 20 min so far still gives me some discomfort.Also tires my thighs a little. I feel stiff if Im standing in one spot for too long. Stiff in the legs, knees, and neck (right side of the neck)
- 8:30am - laid down on couch. it was the only spot that actually afforded me some rest. Gently massaged my legs. Tummy had a burning sensation. I'm not hungry, but my body wants nutrients.
- 9:00am - decided to make soup
- 9:20am - some cramping right between my naval and my right hip bone while i was making soup.
- 10:30am - had 2.5 bowls of soup. I guess I wanted more than I realized. I still don't want anything heavy though. Had vitamins at the 2nd bowl.
- 10:48am - walked a little, noticed itchiness behind right knee again (the very same thing that started all of this)
- 11:12am - urine normal, noticed tightness in my hamstring (right), and a little less in my left. Back pain still present. Plan to take arnica at 11:20/30
- 12:12pm - arnica then rested on back on couch
- 1:15pm - slight burning sensation in tummy
- 1:28pm - reached for a handful of crackers an-- roomie called to check in on me. I seem to have a slight appetite, but i still dont want to eat much, so only small meals will do for now.
- Still experiencing the same issue with my lower back, slight inflammation on the lymph on the right side of my neck. It's gotten itchy behind my right knee (again). It randomly comes for a bit then goes away. Tightness in my outer and inner thigh.
- 3:28pm - sharp sudden pain in my mid-back on the left side this time. I was at the PC when it happened. Going to AFK to have a late lunch now. Then laying down to rest my back
POSSIBILITIES:
- sciatica - roomie's initial guess yesterday
- it doesnt explain the nausea or stomach burning but it does highlight that it affects only one side of the body. Plus I have been having issues on my right side for a few months and it's gradually worsened.
