the_rckOkay, today is suggesting that I must eat before having tea. That's unfortunate because it means more time with the waking up after not eating for 15 hours headache. Still, it might be better than abdominal cramping (nowhere near as bad as Sunday or Monday). I haven't been up long enough for the graham cracker and piece of toast I had to get anywhere like that far into the system.
Fluids move really fast, though, so I'd need to eat at least an hour and a half before drinking the tea which isn't ideal at all. And that hour and a half applies to things like crackers rather than to chicken liver or chicken sausages. I'd expect those to sit there for longer. I'm not sure how to make that work since I rely on the teaspoon or two of honey in my tea (16 oz of tea with almond milk sometimes with coffee crystals and stevia added, too) to get me through the time until I can eat, have eaten, and have started to digest. It gives me the ability to dig through the fridge to get something I can eat cold or (if I have the energy) put on a plate and heat.
I'm almost certain at this point that the metformin was causing my mental difficulties. Last night, I was better than I had been at any point since starting it, and I feel even better, mentally, today in spite of knowing that I need to go out soon.
