so breakfast was on the road. I started out with an unsweetened iced green tea but it made me itch almost immediately so I tossed that. I had a Naked juice Blue Machine instead -- the itching calmed almost immediately.
Then we got to lunch. Although they had an extensive menu, and a lot of items sounded good, the only thing that seemed safe was a lettuce wrapped burger with sweet potato fries. I'm not sure whether the meat was old, or if there were fillers, or possibly the fries were coated with something (though they didn't look or taste like it), but my whole right arm itched like crazy after I ate. I also noticed my skin was flaking like crazy on that arm.
Nevertheless, the conversation was wonderful. I'm going to go check into some bile salts and magnesium tomorrow.
Then I got to spend some time with my grandson. :-D
Finally, on the way home, we stopped for dinner. We went to six separate restaurants, looking at the menus, trying to find something I could eat. I finally gave up and went to Una Mas! The closest I could get to safe was a Thai chicken burrito bowl. I knew it had stuff I haven't reintroduced, but it seemed the least risky. It had:
1) corn oil
2) nightshades (peppers and tomato sauce)
3) sweet chili sauce (so probably sugar & possibly soybean oil)
4) pineapples
5) far too much rice
It tasted good and I was really hungry. But on the way home, I could not get comfortable. I felt bloated and inflamed, my joints ached and I had a slight headache and shooting pains. I'm glad it tasted good, I would hate to think I had all those symptoms and didn't even enjoy it. I'm just glad to know I'll be back on track tomorrow and this will pass quickly. My daughter gave me some arnica tablets for inflammation, so I'm going to try them out.
