Another brief post simply due to feeling less than preferable. Nice way of saying that I'm feeling less good this afternoon. The morning went well and PT was good as well. When I got home, I felt like getting things done so I proceeded to accomplish several smaller tasks that I had set before myself and try to accomplish, while CC is at work. I suppose that I went longer than I should have, of course hindsight is always 20/20. Brain fog kicked into gear and caused me to become slower and more deliberate and seems to be coming and going. Shakes began after my body had continuously sweat for nearly 15 minutes or so. Typically, sweating lasts for a couple minutes or so and then subsides. This time, it reminded me of 2006 episodes where the sweating lasted for several minutes and generally ended in an attack. I got my own liquid K+ and knew that CC was only minutes away when all this started, so I knew I'd be covered. The sweating stopped after the K+ and laying down. I also ate some yogurt as well as some spaghetti.
I'm going to finish this and go lay down on my bed for the rest of the afternoon. As noted before, profuse sweating is an indication of the body dumping large amounts of potassium. Incidentally, it's the drop in potassium that often triggers full body attacks, so, I'll have my cell by my side and will hopefully dodge this incoming bullet.
It's also quite possible that what is happening may have nothing to do with my accomplishments as well. It may just be my body being screwed up. Answers are most often educated speculation.
Okay, it's harder to type correctly so I'll stop.
This a my blog about my life and struggles with HKPP (a terminal disease); Conquests and set backs, relationships and the strengthened resolve of their survival.
