Have you ever tried the magnesium spray? It will make a difference with both your pain, and relaxation so you can sleep. I have venison whee! breaking out of the comfort zone.

I wondered about you yesterday morning. I hope the sleep doctor can help you. I made chicken sandwiches yesterday morning for breakfast, ate nothing for lunch and made spaghetti with meat sauce for supper.

@DianneN I don't eat as much as I used to, either.

I really hope the sleeping expert can help you. I’m glad to hear your sister-in-law is coming for a visit as well. Yesterday, I had a veggie omelette, toast, a Salisbury steak, macaroni and cheese, and a pear.

They wouldn't let me schedule directly. They have to get a referral from my PCP.

Again to have leftovers I made a favorite casserole with tater tots, cut slices of kielbasa, pizza sauce, and shredded cheddar. It comes out delicious with the potatoes shredded and the juicy sausage.

@LindaOHio It is good that he is doing so many diagnostic testing, ultrasounds aren't painful, although I remember you telling me that the hard surface bothered your back. I hope that this time around it isn't terrible.

@LadyDuck She is always in a big hurry to get home. I texted her and haven't heard from her; so I don't know if she's coming or not.

I hope you can get some relief. Sleep is so vital to health. I had the usual for lunch, and they gave me so much rice that I had it for dinner with a salad and cheese and grapes and a fiber brownie and yogurt. And applesauce!!!

Yesterday I had a vanilla mountain candy bar. Long time since I've had one. Supper was different but tasty: yellow summer squash and onion sauteed in a little oil and Harisa spice. Canned tomato and hummus on a tortilla.

I’m really very sorry to hear you are still having sleep issues. Whatever med I mentioned that my son took worked so well. Now his doctor is decreasing the amount every couple of days until he’s off it completely. So far, so good. Sounds like you will be pretty busy. I was barely here yesterday, because I had very little time. Pasta, beef, and salad And I love beets!!!
