Tonsils healed...toe healed... Time for Mudder

Took some Sulfur 30X for the tonsils. That seemed to do the trick..though it totally knocked me out. I took Monday and Tuesday off work (all jobs...even German Choir). There's still a tiny bit of crap on them...but barely.
I got a massive headache Tuesday...and ended up taking 1,000mg of Tylenol. :( It just got worse and worse and I just couldn't handle it. It's been a LONG time since that's happened.
 
The toe is almost completely healed. It still hurts a tiny bit....but it's totally doable for Saturday.

I have acne like crazy. It's insane. I've had it for over a month now...solid. I know my hormones have been bouncing around...so maybe that's it? Or just crap is coming up and out? It's really annoying. I should also be more diligent with my eating.. I know.

Tough Mudder on Saturday! Wheee!! I have NO clue what my count is... I wanted to check, but won't have time. Maybe it's better if I don't know.... I'll be careful, either way. :)

And then moving on Wednesday!!! AAAAHHHHH!!! :D

Tonsil check

White stuff is still there.. and now it hurts. Oy.
I'm calling in sick today.
And I got April's email...which suggested to take Sulfur... so I did just now.
Come on body, you can do it!

This is what I get for climbing a tree.....

Funny.... last time I climbed a tree... I had more platelets......

I also just dosed 8 drops of my constitutional. Now it's time for bed and hope my tonsils heal quickly.

Now the tonsils... *facepalm*

So my little toe is doing VERY well. But now my tonsils are FULL of white crap.... at first I thought it was a tonsil stone, but I couldn't get it out because my tonsil was swollen. Then today, I could REALLY feel something on it...and on the other one as well... And when I checked them in the mirror, I was shocked and stunned to find that they are just totally covered with white crap. Currently, my throat doesn't hurt at all and I'm not running a fever.... they are just gunked up!
I'm wondering if I went over board with the remedies for my toe, and now I'm getting a proving symptom from one of them? I tried to avoid that by putting it in water and shaking it every time before I took a sip.... but maybe not? Goodness I hope that's the case!!! It's really uncomfortable, and really seems like they all showed up all at once. Both tonsils are red and swollen...but don't hurt. It's weird. April wasn't answering her phone, and I can't find anything on the hpathy website. *facepalm* Guess I'll stop all the remedies and just keep gargling salt water. Maybe I should take my constitutional?

The little toe

While out for a morning jog, I smashed my little toe into my friend I was jogging with. Unfortunately, I was barefoot....hence the actual ability to smash a toe.
Now it's bruised, swollen, and hurts to walk on. Aaaaand Tough Mudder is in 10 days. *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm*
I've both taken Ledum and Hyperycum (spelling?) orally and am soaking my toe in it as I type. I plan to do this daily.... I want to be able to go dancing by Friday, damn it.
Come on body. Do your healing thing.

The tunnel

Moving, though exciting, is stressful. Stress and platelet counts don't mix. *facepalm* And I've been bouncing back and forth between where I live now and where I'm about to live...which is also a bit jostling... and doesn't help for my dosing.
So I just dosed 8 drops tonight.
We'll see what happens. I'm trying to keep my hopes up. It's been two years since my water fast got my count into the low 30's... 35 isn't that great for two YEARS. Ugh.
When I was first diagnosed, the doctors said it would only be for a week..... and every week I wasn't better, the tunnel and the light at it's end seemed to grow. And then weeks turned into months...and the tunnel grew. And then months turned into years. Now the light is very hard to see.
I started H-Pathy a year and a half ago, and made the same mistake thinking things would move fast. And by 'fast' I mean faster than years upon years. All the stories of people getting their count up within a year makes me jealous.
I have new bruises. Dark and purple..some of them hard from blood building up under the skin. Not a day goes by without me thinking about them. Not one. *sigh* Is this ever going to be in the past? Will I be able to look back and say, "Oh right.... I vaguely recall that... Yeah... that really sucked then. Glad that's over! Phew!" That'll be a fantastic day.

Lots of health stuff

Platelet count: 35
Not bad..... not great... but not bad. I was REALLLLLLLY hoping for something out of the 30's for ONCE. But at least it's not the 20's.

I re-dosed my constitutional at 7 drops. Major stomach acid now. *eye roll*

My period started WAY early. 27 days. That's unheard of for me. o.O

I started getting a sore throat yesterday, and now am sick with a cold today (albeit rather mild)

My masseuse can tell that big stuff is going on in my life right now.... I didn't even have to tell her what's going on...my body is showing it. One thing that came up was my gall bladder meridian was all clogged (PAINFUL...goodness....). We weren't totally sure what that was about...so I just now looked it up and found this:
The Gall Bladder is responsible for making decisions and judgments, as well as providing courage and initiative.  
Wow. That's dead on.
