HARD PARTS and HELPERS

The lousiest part of being ill is being ill; just as the lousiest part of not being able to function properly, or not being able to stay asleep, is being dysfunctional and tired all the time
This is a great help thanks to my 'Archangel' friend, Michael Beiser
This is about  the practice of Self Comforting
"I divested myself of despair and fear when I came here.
Now there is no more catching one's own eye in the mirror,
there are no bad books, no plastic,
no insurance premiums, and of course no illness.
Contrition does not exist,
nor gnashing of teeth.
No one howls as the first clod of earth hits the casket.
The poor we no longer have with us.
Our calm hearts strike only the hour
 and God, as promised,
proves to be mercy clothed in light."

 (From the Other Side by Jane Kenyon)


The Newest Symptom
Poor Circulation is at fault here
 Swelling in the right ankle and foot
This is what will take me to the radiology clinic as soon as they can give me an appointment for one or more of these Tests:
1. computed tomography (CT or CAT scan; a special technique that uses a computer to combine many X-ray images into a detailed image of an area body that is 100 times more clear than a regular X-ray)
    2. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
    ultrasound studies of leg veins or the arteries of the head and neck
    3. angiograms or venograms
    4. ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram)
    5. electrocardiograms (ECGs)
