I had felt that I was making progress but then had what might be described as a relapse (or perhaps its just part of my cycling process?) where I felt real crappy for a week and a half. Now seem on the up again and today, probably had the best day I've had in some time!

I get to sleep ok but then wake after what I imagine is one REM cycle of 3 or 4 hours feeling very agitated and anxious and then spend the rest ofthe night sleeping just 10 to 30 minutes at a time, broken by wake spells of extreme anxiety. Oddly the cycle ends abruptly with a decent full nights sleep and a general improvement the next day. Still have no idea if this is some from of cycling (doesnt seem to be any regular pattern to it) or if its in some way allergy based, but again I'd be at a loss to guess what the trigger might be. All I know is the bad spells really are about as near to hell as my mind could imagine! Fortunately however I don't feel like this all the time and when I do feel that bad, I can cling to the reality that it WILL pass and days like today will come along at some point.

well I still forgot to plant my veges but I'm back in Sydney now.I just read a bit about iodine.
You may recall i've been eating kelp for over a year now.
I may have overdone it today as I have a headache.
Anyway I came acroaa this yahoo groups and had a listen to this doc on iodine..and it seems to be somehow related to histamine and I cant figure out if that is related to histadelic or sot or if it would help or not.. but maybe some one canjust a different angle to consider maybe
Histidine and Histamine. Histidine is the precursor for histamine.
Anti-histamines are used to control runny noses, hives, and itching.
Iodine inhibits the conversion of histidine to histamine, thus
reducing itching, hives, etc.http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/iodine/message/15403
or the talks are here
