Stressful Stress Test

So I had my stress test on Wednesday and barely lasted 5 minutes on the treadmill. I was still exhausted from that yesterday, plus only getting 3 hours of sleep from doing homework, so that's why I'm 8 hours late. My laptop has a virus so I'll post about my stress test and crappy week when I can.

I'm going to make this a short post this time.

I've had a pretty bad fibro week. Just about half of my class is sick with some type of virus. That really freaks me out because have a fear of getting sick on top of my POTS. So my anxiety/OCD have been terrible. My doctor said that I am severely anemic. She is going to make an attempt to treat me. Hopefully when it goes up it will alleviate some of my symptoms that anemia causes. :)

Francessca's Question: How are you going to celebrate awareness week?I honestly have no clue.

 Logei's Question: What is your favorite recipe, if you can post it?
I'm sorry, I don't really have a favorite recipe. I don't cook much.

I hope you feel better! Stomach problems are the worst.

Rhianne: I pray you get out of the hospital soon and that you are doing okay!


God bless! :)

Yes, Healthy Ice Cream Exists!

Hey all, my stomach and I are really not getting along.  The tube definitely helps my vomiting, but I can't handle a high enough rate to get in enough feeds. Its like my intestines can't handle all the fluid and I get sick and bloated.
Oh and my primary doctor is still refusing to give me IV fluids even though she now has recommendations from two different doctors.  I'm so frustrated, because she could get me fluids with a phone call, that's all it takes, and I would feel so much better! I'm so dehydrated right now!

So this random, but I was experimenting with healthy recipes and I made the RICHEST raw chocolate ice cream today. I thought I would share the recipe!

 2 cups of chopped raw walnuts,
2 large frozen overripe bananas (sliced),
 1/4 cup raw chocolate powder,
1/4 cup raw honey/agave
 Directions, grind up walnuts in a food processor until fine, then add frozen bananas, chocolate powder, and honey. Process until smooth, then put in a container in the freezer until it reaches the thickness you like.
 It will come out fine with normal ingredients too, raw chocolate powder and such can be hard to find!



Questions.. "what is your favorite food to eat when you don't feel good."  I love food to much to pick a favorite. Um, since I can't eat anyway..... I have no idea.

My question, what is your favorite recipe? If you can, post it!


Rhianne, I hope you are ok, and I forgot to thank you last week for posting pics of your pets for me on your personal blog!

Miranda.... you are in my prayers.

Everyone else, have a good week!

Am i getting better yet?

heyyyyy guyyyss !
I've been so out of it cause im trying to get off my fludrocortisone, so less blood flow and liquids ! I have been trying to get off of it without my doctors knowledge (yeah i know bad) but he dosen't lissten ! Fludrocortisone is seriously the devil i swear. It sucks all the potassium out of you and gives you such anxiety....oh and acne. Anyways i think this diets been helping somewhat. I'm starting to feel like how i did last summer, a little more energy instead of laying in bed like i was the past couple month. This is going to be another short post from being so out of it.
hope everyones doing better !
p.s everyone say a prayer for Rhianne, she's not doing so good and in the hospital again.

Super Saturday

I Nearly forgot to post.Okay anyways Dysautonomia week is like two weeks away but I'm super determined to do something for it like organizing a bake sale to raise money
so i go to walmart and ask them if we can have a bake sale there. there like talk to manager
so we do then there like it has to be in writing typed. so we give it to them then we call up later and there like  usually you have to call months in advance but maybe we will luck out
they said to call back on Tuesday and they will give us an answer. Ugh don't they see that this is actually a worthy cause ? its not like were gonna sell stuff for profit 
its going to research for dysautonomia. well if we get a yes it will be held in Maryland on  September 17th hopefully at carol island walmart .Even if we can't have it there we will find somewhere else
plus i already bought cake mix so im not backing down ! I intend to be stubborn about this its time we bring some awareness to pots and dysautonomia I also thought of an Idea we could all wear blue shirts and post it as are profile pic during awareness week maybe even put pots on are heads something cool
people don't understand because we don't let them we don't explain  because usually people don't have time to listen but this time is gonna be ours dysautonomia has a voice and were it
omg that sounded super deep lol  okay on to questions

Hannah's Question: How much water a day do you try to drink? Or, if you really cannot drink a whole lot, what would be or is your goal?

I probably should drink more but i usually only drink a half a Gatorade.
which is pretty bad  because your supposed to like drink a liter or something like that



 
 Tana's  :What is your favorite food to eat when you are feeling sick, but know you have to eat something?
 
First i have to say welcome back Tana I was wondering where you went.
I would have to say I like  the little off brand goldfish crackers I think there called whales lol
 
apparently I'm the first September post so happy September :)
 
 I guess my question is how are you gonna celebrate awareness week ?
as i mentioned earlier I'm planning on bake sale
