The Juice Diet Day 5

Ok here is the announcement... I am going to discontinue this diet after 7 days unless I start to feel substantially better.  I feel like crap, I have felt like crap the whole time, and in addition to the normal crappy feeling I am having to do all this crappy stuff to make the juice (which is quite yummy usually once I get it done)

So here I am reporting on yesterday (Day 5) with only today and tomorrow to go.

I'm going to see the immunologist this afternoon - clearly I won't have to explain that today is a good day, though not quite the worst I ever feel it is a good example of a bad (not BAAAAD) day.

Quite frankly I'm over it!

	Edna Everage Day	DAY 5
Constant Pain	Constant dull aches	Headache's gone! Body pain is unrelenting.
Pain Rating	5	6
Stabbing or Shooting Pain	Intermittent but many times a day – hips, knees, shoulders, back, neck – the usual suspects	My hips, knees and right shoulder featured prominently with a rather nasty cameo by my back.
Energy	Like I used to feel when I had a cold or the flu.	Still lousy
Skin	Irritation and itchiness usually when I try to relax	Not too bad (Yay!)
Plumbing	Varies	Fine
Forgetfulness	Intermittent	Average
Depression	A bit down	A bit down
Anxiety	Fluctuating at times high	Average (a couple of spikes)
Sleep	Restless, broken, some insomnia	Slept very heavily (woke hurting) for about 4 hours and then couldn't go back to sleep.
Restlessness	Limited ability to be still	Not too bad
Fumbling & Stumbling	Drop things, bump into things, catch feet on uneven surfaces & stumble	Quite bad, even watching my fingers I lost hold of something I was holding delicately.
Balance & Vertigo	Varied equilibrium issues with occasional vertigo	Poor balance a couple of mild head spins (needed to sit)
Hunger	Not usually	Too tired to bother eating it was a real drudge
Cheating	N/A	Nuts, olives and avocado and whole fruit instead of juiced.
