Biggest question on my mind. Have to take it slow for the first three weeks as usual since as far as the body is concerned it was just another dose. Only the mind knows that it was the last one. But it is hard doing that. There are so many things that I want to do now that the doses are over. Nurses and doctors at the clinic say take it slowly. There are follow up tests to be done. A CT that will compare pre op to now. And bloods. Also a scan on my wrist where on session 5 the needle dislodged and the dose leaked a bit into the skin. There was a special regiment to follow for it. But the body has to heal in its cool time. So they have to do a scan on the wrist to see if it is healing properly.  Other than that the symptoms have been usual. Nothing major or different. 2 weeks on the taste is slowly coming back but occasionally there would be a taste in the mouth that I cannot even identify. And that would not be at a time that I am eating anything even. It is some random time in the...

  With each later cycles, the symptoms after the session has changed. I am not sure if it is the body that has got used to it or me, but I have begin to understand when a change in the body occurs what it might lead to and what to do about it. It seems like a big deal, but mostly it is just not getting overwhelmed by it. One of the new symptoms that started with session 3 was the inability to process multiple thoughts or conversations. For example if my husband said, "Could you boil some water to make some tea and we can have some biscuits as snacks" That simple statement with three actions in it was too much to handle. I couldn't process it and would get confused. I had to ask him to break it down into  to 3 separate statements and repeat slowly one after the other.  Another thing was dizziness. If I bend to pick up something, I felt like the world was spinning around and I had to quickly sit down so as not to fall.  Another was reflux. I had to go to the doctor was...

Have you ever wondered If your body and mind Are friends or foes? Do they support each other? Or are they against each other? When you are reaching for that  Extra piece of cake, or pastry, or chip Does your mind cheer it on? When you need to get up and go  To e xercise, walk or gym, Does your mind hold you back? Little voices in your head going Too tired, not today, later, tomorrow Only one more piece  It's not every day ... Spirituality dictates  Mind is the fore runner for everything But when it is decision time  Why would it su pport some  and not others? Maybe the mind and body  Are actually i n this together Working as one Against l ittle old ME !
