Noon thirty.

Not great, but it could be worse.  Already hitting 13:00.  Not moving fast, but I did get the water pills... the extras... in the pill box finally.  I have been taking the extra, but had to go get them, and then remember to take them.  Eventually.  And, why?  Well, because I have lost thirty to forty pounds in the last week.  And I am still, probably, just from extra fluid, between 280 and 300... which means I could easily lose another thirty to forty pounds, just in fluids.

So, yeah... I have to take extra.  One, or two, water pills a day simply will not do anything except maintain what is an excess of fluid.  Perhaps it will keep from adding more, but that water is doing bad things.  From causing exhaustion through flooding cells and lungs and other organs, to adding weight which simply crushes me, makes me have to work much harder just to stand.  More water pills.

And, actually, I may add some in the afternoon too.  While the "morning" pills do help me void, they sort of stop working by later in the afternoon.  Though I am not sure extra water pills will help, I am willing to take some risk, short term... for the next week.  I need to get rid of some of that fluid.  It's killing me, in a dozen ways.

Another shower today.  And I have fresh clean clothes to wear today.  I may add another load of laundry into the mix, today.  As well, hopefully, after a shower... and sometime through the day... get dishes started.  A lot of them.  Plus I really have to change the cat litter, feed the girls and critters, and... a few other things.

I am doing better?  Sort of.  I am able to do a few things.  Still crippled up a goodly bit.  The dark, damp, cool to cold, and health are combining to be a bit brutal.  But I am pushing on through.  I had thought not to take painkillers today, but... reconsidered.  Well, just one.  I have been able to take just one, most of this week.  I have taken two, once... and none twice.  Today, I need one.  Limited pain sites, but more potent pain from them.  Kidneys.  Yes, risks.  It is how it goes.  Later.
