Sudden onset, stomach distress, and inability to eat.

I should have known that the pictures I have seen of New Zealand were probably the prettiest parts. Yes, humans have messed up the earth something terrible. It makes me feel sick and sad. You would have liked Oregon I think. It’s very pretty and the coastline is gorgeous.
I don’t like to take medication either. I do take a tranquilizer to help me sleep because insomnia runs in my family.
What you said about the pain triggered another aha moment for me. (When you were talking about digging your fingernails into your palm) That’s why people self-mutilate! I admit as a kid I used to do that a little bit. It seemed to help me bear the emotional pain of my screwed up family. It takes your mind off what you can’t control or change.
It sounds like you must have a very creative mind if you were able to invent scientific instruments. If everyone were like me, we’d still be living in trees or caves. I can do word things well, but not invention, unless it’s poetry. Thankfully, we’re all different.
Please invent a way to transplant stomachs! I want a different one. Thanks in advance. 😊

@blessedwildapplegirl and @cheyne like you two, I am averse to prescription medications, much to my doctors’ chagrin. I often worry that my refusal to take prescribed medications (I only do when desperate, and only for as short a period of time as possible) will get me “fired” by my GP and any specialist she sends me to, and in Canada one cannot afford to lose a doctor since there is a much shorter list of available doctors than there are patients on waiting lists for them. 🤷🏼♀️ So I essentially pick my battles and choose which hill to die on - while I hold my breath when visiting my doctor or specialist, hoping I will not be prescribed anything! lol.
While I have built up a strong threshold to pain on my health journey, for certain procedures I still actually beg for freezing or anaesthesia! lol. Other than that, the only “bad” medications I take on a regular basis are just once a day medications for GERD (because of hiatal hernia), thyroid, psoriasis and overactive bladder. I have fibromyalgia and severe arthritis among other ailments but refuse prescription painkillers - especially any that have to be taken more than once a day. I just thank God I don’t have diabetes or heart disease because that would mean a much bigger list of medications!

Hi ,
I can go one better, I want a way to transplant my body for a good one!
My father and older brother were abusive and cut from the same cloth. My brother stopped when he found my strength was a lot more than he could muster, slaming his head into a brick wall quieted him down. As for my father that all stopped suddenly when I applied some of his own treatment back. I don't remember the incident but my family vividly recount an incident when I took a carving knife to him, he had my mother suspended by the throat. Ever since I have tried to not be like my father despite the violent nature I inherited when stirred, prefering to walk away.
Just experiencing a flare up this morning. I had veggie soup last evening that my wife made and it is kicking back. Seems like I can cross that off the tolerable list now. Take with caution in future. I'm sure she is not trying to poision me as we cashed in my life insurance!
I'm starting to prove this Autonomia is affecting my blood glucose levels when it is not supposed to be possible! Long thought it had some input but after 6 choky biscuits, see food diet, it tumbled this morning, relative to my norm, go figure.
I'm noticing these key board buttons are jumping around alot this morning so hope I'm making sense, my vision is compromised so everything is blurry for the moment, I hope. Just another challenging day ahead to keep me on my toes.
Cheers
