Writing is a great way to organize your thought - and this! LOVE it!

And what better place to dump it all than the blockchain?

That's what I do. The good (cute cat and dog photos), the bad.
I've been in the same Search Mode - and rejoiced in September thinking I'd found the first doctor ever (a chiropractor) who 'gets it,' but he only offered one course of treatment, which I opted not to continue after four sessions with a weird little clicker device (The Activator). Sounds like a Schwarzenegger movie, ya know? And I watched a you-tube video in its defense but have heard from too many people who say it may work for some people but for them "The Activator" was inactive. Ineffectual.
Have you been tested for food allergies? My family doctor said there's no such test, but a different chiropractor ordered one ($200, not covered by insurance), and it confirmed my gluten intolerance -- and what I was in denial over: dairy and eggs. And yeast. And amarantha and quinoa, the gluten alternatives? Dang. Soy is another common trigger for inflammatory conditions (like lupus, fibroyalgia, arthritis, diabetes, etc), even if it doesn't show up on the blood test.

Some herbal remedies seem to help too - feverfew, butterbur, ashwagandha, and p---- (gotta look it up; couldn't find it for sale): Copaiba - the capsules or liquid you swallow, not the oils you apply or inhale.

I hope you feel better soon!!!

I miss your fiction! Mistress Morgan, what have you been up to?

Done all those tests. The advantages of socialized medicine. I am so painfully bust, I don't even have the time to dump thoughts or selfies on the blockchain. A lot of responsibility on these days.

Dang. All those tests done already. What about those herbal remedies...
I'm thinking of those forest witches in Mistress Morgan, and hoping they turn out to be not-so-evil after all, but then, I've been seeing ads for "Wicked," in which the Bad Witch tells her side of the story.
Wishing you more time!
