So, I see you have all met cousin Frank, the "tech guy", which he pretty much is even for me. When I wanna know something about the Jule or anything else, I email or call Frank. I'm not gonna bust Frank out except to say that Frank has his own amazing story of being on mads basically his whole life and HE is the one who researched the different natural things, got on supplements and got himself almost all pharm drugs. Knowing him his entire life, to me it's amazing,,,
I also wanted to say, I DON'T have anything against pharm medications. In fact, I happen to really like some of them,lOL. But ya know, everytime I work hard on getting rid of 1 or 2, they end up sooner or later adding 3 more. Plus the side effects of many of the drugs has really sucked this last 5 yrs. I have been on 2-3 pain meds almost the entire time. Why? Because with the sternum being open, they feel it's better to use the meds so I can still "function somewhat" instead of fixing it. Fixing it is a nightmare surgery that would take almost a year recovery, even being done by a world known doctor now. Yea, they screwed it up BIG time the first time. In fact, the boys were just watching the movie "The Wrestler" who had byapss surgery after collapsing after a match. They showed him right after leaving the hospital with the bandage on his chest, n the boys said I didn't have one when I came home. I don't remember to be honest with u, but would make sense. I was there over a week longer than I should have been, so it probably was off by then. I was lucky enough to be "in a coma" basically when they took the chest tubes out, but the asses made sure I remembered that damn breathing tube coming out,,,OMG. They also commented on how fast he was able to do stuff again, which was something else i couldn't do. Why? because they f*cked up my throat so bad I needed that damn trach n then the troat surgery. More on those at another time, or this post will be another book, lmao.
What I REALLY wanna share with u all is this. I am on my 2nd bottle of Jule, because I am taking a higher dose. Most people need probably 2-3 Oz a day. I need close to 5-6 with all my health issues. We're adding GoChi on Tuesday and I'm really psyched. Did ya EVER expect me to get psyched over drinkin so "tonic" crap that was non alcoholic? I think NOT. But I really am. I FEEL so freakin much better it's insane. I have sleep apnea and used to wake up every hr on the hr. I now sleep 5-7 hrs straight easily. My nerves,,,hell I haven't touched a zanax in probably 6 days now. And the hormones must be straightened out because I'm not having hot flashes or mood swings. (John''s REALLY hoping the sex drive comes back soon too)lmao,,,hahhahaha. Poor guy, it's been quite awhile. The meds n this menopause has me messed up big time on that, but that's all i'll say for now,,LOL. My blood sugars seem to be stabilizing some, and I have actually been eating a few more meals a day, instead of my usual 1. Yea I know, Im supposed to eat 6 small meals. Well, I eat when I'm hungry. Kinda nice to be able to do that now with these new insulins but anywho,,,
Here is the BIG news with the Jule. I can WALK again. Yea I have been able to walk all along but very very short distances. Like less than a block. I do from my house to my car right in front of my house. BUT, the other day I went to the grocery store n decided NOT to get the electric wheelchairs like I always do. Instead I just got a buggy n figured I'd hold on if need be. Well, I was FINE. No holding on, NO PAIN in my calfs which means, the circulation MUST be getting better. Now my feet, the feeling is coming back a little wee bit. Hey it might NOT come back, because it's from neuropathy because they say neuropathy is like this. Once ur circulation gets better, the damage stops right there. Doesn't get better, but won't get worse. So hey, I may never have feeling but that's OK. Long as the circulation is back, I can walk without pain, and I won't lose my feet or worse, my legs.
I'm scheduling a doppler on my legs for 2 weeks from now, and they wi
ll probably do a Cath I'm sure, just to put any stents in the upper thigh/pelvis area IF needed. I can handle Caths, they are a peice of freakin cake. I can handle stress tests etc. What I want to get away from completely is ANY bypass surgeries freaking period. No heart,no legs NOTHING. They are sure that at some point before Im old n die, I will need the heart bypass. Well memo to them, I plan on making sure they r WRONGO again. Like Frank said, I will be on Jule (plus I'm sure others) the rest of my life. Oh well, I will drink as much as needed just to be healthy "for real" and not just maintaining on bullshit pills,,,,,
Out for now, tune in soon, same bat station, same batty person,,lmao
