Goals & Gains The Hell in Me

A wild 48 hours. Got home from the gym, showered, passed out.

Woke up at 1am soaking wet, shivering. Turns out I had a fever nearly of nearly 39°C. The next 16 hours I was in and out of sleep, alternating between freezing or sweating with no happy medium, somewhat delirious, until I woke up having broken the fever, soaking the mattress and pillow in the process. I think I had some Advil and Gatorade in there at some point. Showered, changed the sheets, went back to sleep. Woke up today around 730 and ate for the first time in around 36 hours, passed out again, woke up, showered, checked my temp which was 36.9°. Spent the afternoon trying to rehydrate and watching (mostly listening to) some MPMD videos about micronutrients.

Had a blood test recently and I actually got the results sent to me directly.

Most notably I have low RBC, WBC and hemoglobin with normal iron levels. I have elevated ALT, which could mean a bunch of things. Follow up with the clinic on Wednesday.

Recently downloaded the Cronometer app to better see where I can optimize my micronutrients and found I was folate deficient so I bought some liver and increased my “leafy greens”, and got some folic acid for days where I’m not eating enough food with folate. I’m hitting nearly all my micros with the food I have been eating for the past year or so which is encouraging.

I take three pictures most Sunday mornings, straight on, 45 degree angle and side profile, to see any composition changes. The scale stays the same but clearly a huge difference in what I look like. I guess I will keep doing what I am doing.
