No caffeine yet. The dr might find me some sort of something (I'm okay with like 1/4 cup of black tea, which'll be enough to take the edge off), because they won't let me have Coke on account of it's not clear, and no coffee, either.
He says I should reduce or stop my Synthroid (right after I picked up 90 days' worth, of course) because my free T4 is high and my TSH was 0.66 in their lab (when I last went to my dr it was 1.5), because that can cause some of the symptoms.
I had lunch: veggie broth with tiny bits of veggies (onions, I think), jello, and a cherry Italian ice.It has not yet made a repeat appearance, unless you count pissing like a racehorse. No longer true. I need to let my nurse know. (It was right after the dr left. Of course. Which was right before I started writing this.)
They think it might be IBS? That would make me sad, but less sad than celiac would make me. But we need to restore the flora, etc.
Fuck, my head hurts. Ooh, they're bringing me tea.

Okay...Fail attempt at laughter is best medicine. :X
Get better!
I am amazed you can handle digesting onions in your state. Unless onions get liquefied? I cannot manage the fuckers.

But I can eat real food again o thank god.
