Im basically doing less bread, more rice and pasta and beans, less fish and chicken, more olives (for fat).

I am in the middle of a course of antibiotics for a UTI, and boy i cannot believe how much better i feel. I cant believe how sick i was getting without realizing it. I know that old people in nursing homes often go a little crazy from undiagnosed UTI's - the symptoms are not always obvious (it happened to my uncle). I guess i better start watching for that in myself!

Oh - i was gonna say, my stomach feels better too. I wonder if i have h pylori? And thats part of what made me queasy with veg? My mother claims she had heartburn since she was a little girl.

I take a med (topamax) that is hard on the kidneys so i try to be careful to drink enough water.
I swear I have a uti a lot. I have a history of them and I couldn’t even go the other week. I was straining so hard and I really needed to go. Finally after I took a shower I was able to. Plus I have this strange bleeding that I don’t know where it’s coming from. I have a lot to discuss with my doctor when I see him.
