Will pop off and on here but won't be on as much as I used to until I'm feeling better. In addition to healing from pulled muscles around my ribs, and a cracked rib that is still in the process of healing, I now am battling seasonal allergies that makes me feel tired and like I'm walking in a fog, with sneezing and sometimes feeling cold. Have gone back to taking local honey and organic Ceylon cinnamon for that. Also taking black elderberry syrup and colloidal silver, plus my normal supplements. Have upped the intake of collagen too, which is great for your "innards." Ha! Lots of water also and hot tea.

Why am I sharing personal info on there, you might ask... Well, it's because I believe we can learn from each other. Have already gotten some great info from great patriots on here. (Thanks, again!!)

Tip: If you ever pull muscles around ribs, don't sleep on your side. Otherwise, it feels like a torture when you get up. Have started sleeping in a recliner, and that helps a lot!!

Patriot Sam, really hope you feel better soon. Seasonal allergies are terrible and then with your cracked rib, I can't imagine. Love your supplement list. I'm praying for you!

🙏❤️ Thanks so much, Ellen! You are so kind and I am grateful for your prayers. I normally don't have bad allergies, so this is weird. Unless it's some kind of bug. Ugh.

Patriot Sam, allergies change from year to year. I think it depends on the weather, especially if it's been cold and then suddenly much warmer, it can start with a bang. Mine were REally bad for a couple of weeks this year, but last year- none. What helped me was diffusing 5 drops each of lavender, peppermint, eucalyptus and tea tree oils right near me. Plus taking Fisherman's Friend original lozenges to calm the cough and open things up. Plus Neti Pot. I sure hope you find some relief!

That is great, Ellen! I love essential oils but need to make sure they're okay for my pets to inhale first. Thank you for letting me know about your recipe!🙏❤️
