Day 7

I woke up feeling alert and brain fog free today! I must be low in glutathione as my doctor mentioned, because I definitely feel a difference in how my brain feels since I started using the skin cream last Friday. I have not needed any caffeine for 2 days now. I hope it lasts!

I didn’t write yesterday because I was having a pity party for myself. I woke up feeling very sad, and I just couldn’t kick it for half of the day. I try to be as positive as I can, but some days I just feel sorry for myself. I guess that’s par for the course when you have a chronic illness. My husband and something funny I saw on TV finally helped me break out of it.

I used to have pain every day, shoulder, neck, and sciatic pain. At first I was using Diclofenac twice a day and Amitriptyline at night. The combo worked okay for me, but I would still get severe menstrual cramps. The kind that doesn’t respond to anything. It so happened a friend of mine was a Mona Vie distributor, and she gave me a bottle of Mona Vie Active to try. I was very skeptical, but I tried it anyway. I’ve been using it over a year now, and I am virtually pain free. I no longer need Diclofenac, and reduced my Amitriptyline dose by half. I understand that everyone’s bodies are different, and not everyone has the same success with using the same supplements. If you still have chronic pain, please keep looking for answers. Pain control is important to overall well being, and for getting better sleep. Better sleep allows your body to heal.

I’m keeping it short, because I have to get some things done today. Have a good week.

Until tomorrow…
Linda
