My mood has somewhat improved...as it always seems to go up and down. Life on a roller coaster. With surgery coming up, my nerves are on edge, but ongoing pain and illness also brings about these feelings.
On a separate issue, in general, my digestion has been very regular and pain-free (Yes, I know this is extremely lucky). But today, I've had severe stomach problems. I won't go into detail. But at this point, I'm eating only small amounts of mild foods with a lot of stomach discomfort/unsettling. I know some of my students have had a stomach bug lately, so we'll see if that's what is happening. Either way, this makes it even harder for my body to retain fluids. I'm taking extra salt and drinking Gatorade.
