Sigh. I was afraid of that. Well, it must have some symptoms, right? My myasthenia's not better, and the only other health problems I can think of that I have are allergies, to dust and mold mostly, I think, which I will be watching, and a tendency to get migraines. I'll be watching that, too.

I have had different vitamin levels tested, and they've been very good. I think if I had an absorption problem, my levels would be lowish. But who knows. Too bad we can't have health problems when we have the energy to deal with them, right?

My theory about the craving is that since I'm eating much less carbs (especially less refined carbs, including very finely ground whole wheat), I'm not getting such ups and downs in my blood sugar. And I'm not craving salt because all the extra room in my daily calorie allotment lets me eat tons of potassium-rich vegetables. But, who knows. Once I thought I had athlete's foot, but the anti-fungal cream didn't work at all. So I tried the powder, and that worked! Turned out I didn't have athlete's foot at all; I had chillblains (or possibly Raynaud's), and the powder meant I had to wear socks, which kept my toes warm. Let that be a lesson to me. Science is tricky stuff when you have a pea-brain like mine (I mean, imagine not knowing enough to put on socks when your toes are cold. It's a wonder I get through the day).
