Ah-ha!

I may have found the problem.  Low blood pressure?  It was 93/65.  Technically that is in the "good range".  From 120/80 to 90/60 is said to be "healthy".  The problem, for me, is that my system is used to bp being in 215/180 (natural... or unassisted) to 150/110 (on all but the most severe medications).  Now, on extreme medication, my blood pressure had dropped to 120/80... mostly.

However, having gone pure carnivore?  It seems to have... altered something.  And my body is simply not ready for such a low bp.  Pulse was 63.  That is said to be healthy between 60 and 100, down to 40 for solid athletes.  I'm... not an athlete.  As well, my pulse has been running as high as 140, though closer to 110-120, if even more recently hitting closer to 80.  So my body simply isn't ready for 60.

I wondered about blood sugar.  In spite of not having eaten or drunk anything, blood sugar spiked to 193?  I am feeling clammy, with cold sweats.  The clumsiness is back.  I have lost balance.  Nausea, too.  I feel horrible.

I am consuming a vinegar tonic.  Then will have coffee.  I'll need to get some food, shortly.  Wow.  Carnivore, along with the medication, is rather... potent.  Too potent.  It looks like I will need to trim medication.  How much is the question.  I will be dropping some of the pills, and cutting how much I take of the heftier stuff.  But, for now, I will just have to sweat it out.

It does feel like poison.  And, it probably is.  But, as with all things, poison is dosage, not material.  If... some things are poison at any dose, lethal at almost any dose.  Brutal, what I am going through.  So... yes... pure carnivore might... get me off medications, or as large of doses.  Wow.

I have to tell you, I am a bit afraid I may die.  But, if I can make it through, and cut the medication?  I... may be headed to very seriously better health.  I am going to drop the amlodipine and cut the carvedilol in half.  That latter is the one that is getting me, almost certainly.

I had thought about going on to bed, but as rough as I am feeling, I am afraid to go to sleep.  I haven't been this close to death in a while.  Trying to consider what I could do to raise blood pressure.  Can't stand well, so jumping jacks or other types of exercise are out of the question.  And, my muscles are exhausted in some strange way, so lifting weights wouldn't work.  I... can't think of any means by which to... alter my system numbers.  I think I just have to suffer through.  But... I... won't sleep.  I'm am not sure I would wake up.

Wow.  I do think this is carnivore, along with the potency of the medication.  I did not expect this.  Two, three, days of carnivore any... my health improved to make medicine nearly lethal?  Who even could have guessed?  Wild.  If I survive this, I... may... yet... crawl out of the longer term grave?  I can sure hope.  Now... to survive.  Wow do I feel retched, terrible, horrible.

If you would, say a small prayer.  For my life... return to some semblance of health, or death?  Either would be better than this.  If you ever thought a kind thought toward me, a prayer, now, would be appreciated.  Deserve?  Who... exactly... deserves what?  Amen.
