First of all, I'm pretty emotional today so bear with me! Thank you to everyone that responded to my post. I'm still battling but it doesn't feel as fruitless as it did. It feels under control for the moment and I wish I could say what exactly did it but I don't know! I drank ginger ale in cranberry juice and plain plus a LOT of water. I took extremely hot baths which turned to showers when I couldn't hold still then cranked the cold and shocked my body. Once it dropped down to shadows I started exercising again. I'm still working on it but something seems to be going right! OH, I also started back up taking my daily vitamins and refuse to turn off the air since it's hot and humid again.
I'm researching neurologists in this area to try to find one that has dealt with these before so I can make an appointment and get some oxygen. I live in the NorthWest suburbs of IL so if anyone knows of one out here PLEASE contact me! I'm also trying really hard to get a normal sleep schedule going again since the Excedrin PM that helped me sleep through the night screwed that up. Since this has been working for me this time I figured I'd better share it with my cluster family.
I hope it helps someone else!
*hugs*
