I had planned to go back to work today because I thought I was ready. Well, sleeplessness has overtaken me again for two nights in a row as well as intestinal distress. I was not able to get to sleep until after 4 a.m. but I got up at 8:30 a.m. in hopes that I will be able to sleep tonight. My tongue feels as if I have been licking razor blades! My lips are on fire as though I have been sucking on a rag full of crushed habanero peppers. Holy cow, what next?! I tried to eat around 11 a.m. and could not find anything that had any taste. I was able to drink a coke but it was still strange tasting. It tasted better than the water I have been trying to drink large amounts of. Around noon I decided to try some steamed cabbage. Up to this point I have been less sensitive to salt. On the foods I have been able to eat I have to put extra salt to make it eatable. So, I salted the cabbage and took a bite. It was super, super salty!! Yech!!! It was lukewarm because my mouth has become sensitive to heat. I managed to get most of it down and then my normal thing to do after eating is to floss and brush my teeth then use regular mouthwash and if I am having trouble with my mouth I use the special mouthwash that has been prescribed. Before I started the flossing I stuck out my tongue and looked in the mirror. My tongue was full of blisters and was all wrinkly looking. Wow! I had heard about the blisters but it was my first time to experience them. I am posting a photo below but I am not sure if you will be able to see the tiny little blisters all over my tongue.
Well enough for now. I am going to make another post now about a little bird I met today......
Hahahaha.
