Slept for quite awhile after about 2 AM or so. Doing okay, but that tooth is really, really hurting. It was so bad at one point last night , I literally thought I was going to lose my mind. 12/10, easily. Alleve isn't touching it. I am going to have to go see someone, but I cannot afford to do that. Maybe will look into the dental school or one of these supposedly more affordable options.

Got my labs back. My liver and kidney stuff is great. Hb A1C was fine. My total cholesterol and LDL were just slightly, barely elevated, which is weird, since I am basically a vegan. My HDL was quite high, which is quite good and protective, I guess maybe from all the biking? Not really sure. I have been on apsirin since I was 24 yers old, so, tbh, I am not worried about my heart in the least. But I do wonder if maybe we will need to add something for that total cholesterol to be lowered.

The litihum level was a tad lower than usual, but I don't think that matters--it is still therapeutic.

So, all in all, nothing in the labs speaks to all this recent mania and psychosis and stuff.

Gonna try to get out for a ride today, which will be very odd, as I never ride when it is light out. Wish me safety--it is much safer to ride in the middle of the night when there are no cars.
