Aleve update

I think the Aleve actually did something. I ended up taking one pill, last Friday night (I started that day), but was well enough to work out Saturday and Sunday (and, well, every night this past week). The flow took its sweet time leaving (I didn't stop bleeding until yesterday, which puts the period at 8 days), and I had intermittent pain until then as well, but that may be because I stopped taking the Aleve Sunday. I don't want to ruin my liver.

Got a sore spot in my left breast; not Evil Lump, though. Probably a spot of fibro thickening. Not sure why it's so angry, but boy, it is. Just thought I'd mention it.

I'm contemplating toying with my diet to see if that helps. Starting small and easy, of course. Maybe a month without fast food and pizza...I could do that fairly easily. Then a month without chocolate. A month without caffeine. Then a month without salty snacks. (That one's going to be the worst, I know.) Maybe work my way up to a month without dairy or a month without wheat.

Or maybe that's all just crazy talk. But then I never thought I'd give up coffee.
