Not dead!

Still a bit miserable.  Waking midafternoon, around 14:30, I'm not moving fast or strongly or more than with some great effort.  The heart isn't tired, after a bit of rest.  But it feels like I was kneed in the groin, in such a way to harm the man parts there.  It hurts right up into my torso.  Some minor nausea.  I don't think I did catch them, or such.  I just think whatever is wrong is causing something like that sort of discomfort.

The back still hurts a bit too.  Muscles and arms ache for no good reason, more on the arms, biceps and triceps for no good reason.  Just getting off the floor, out of bed, was a stress to them for some odd reason.  And still a bit weary.  May go back to bed in a bit.  Or not.  If I can, I would love to sleep another four, six, ten hours?

I did get morning medicine in before getting to sleep.  I'll get night medicine in shortly.  I have found that it is better to take medicine earlier, and for certain, than try to near bedtime.  My mind begins shutting down.  And, at best, I can't remember if I took it.  At worse, I take it twice.  It isn't just the medicines, I really prefer to get my minerals and vitamins in.

Though I will say this?  If you are going to bother with vitamins and minerals?  Don't take the artificial stuff.  Read the label, look things up.  What passes for vitamin C, for example, is... not, and never will be, vitamin C.  It won't turn into it, in your body, it won't act like it (though maybe replace the real stuff in your body?).  Find a vitamin C that is literally derived from plants or berries.

All supplements are somewhat dubious, just as all medicine is.  Some... are less dubious than others.  All should be questioned.  First as to whether it is actually needed (for me, with an open long term wound, I want to add resistance, and this is questionably a solid way).  Then, the supplement itself needs to be examined, closely, thoroughly.  If you get several sources giving a solid not (not, seemingly, a paid one), then... roll the dice, take your chance.

I'm not sure if the vitamin B super complex I am taking is the best.  I just haven't sorted that one out well.  The mega mineral supplement I have done some research on.  Enough?  Is there ever enough?  Though, too, I have limits on how much I can spend.  I am sure there is better, finer, purer (if too, many "high end" aren't).  With limited resources and buggy health already, I have to be a bit cautious.  Am a bit cautious.  Do my best.

Though even time and focus can be limited.  Reading an encyclopedia of pharma, and supplemental, will do me no good.  Too much data, often conflicting, contrary, wrong, to sort through at once.  One product or type at a time, as deep of a dive as possible, then roll the dice, take the chance, or not.

It is 92 outside, 70/73 upstairs, 74/75 down here.  No ac on down here.  It's... rather incredible.  Turning the ac on mid to later afternoon, then running it until it begin cooling enough outside to open up... leaving the ac on upstairs during the day, turning it off when I sleep (usually, not last night)?  It really does work well with how I have windows set, and how I change those, and with the central fan going.  Life is so very much easier when I can keep it just a few degrees down from the low to mid 80s.  Too long in the 80s and I... burn out hard over time.

Well?  On... to... something?  Or... just looking around, waking a bit, and back to bed when, if, as possible.  Good afternoon and day.  Maybe goodnight again.  Yeah, I still feel a bit rough.  If too, I am still thankful to God, especially on His day, made for us.  Amen.
