Tummy

[plumtreeblossom]

For several days I've had a somewhat upset stomach. Or rather, a hyper-sensitive stomach that's reacting badly to foods that normally don't bother it. I feel queezy if I eat any food that is too cold, too salty, too sweet, or too crunchy-textured (like popcorn). But it's also upset if it's empty, so I have to eat something. It's going to get some plain rice in a little while. Unusual though. Hope it clears up soon. This no way for a gourmand to live.

I have been having digestion and allergy problems for years, which got worse when my job stress peaked. When things didn't get better after I stopped working, I went to an acupuncturist. Mostly for my sense of smell.

Well, it's been a couple months now, and I'm nearly a believer. My digestion is happier, my appetite(s) are tremendous, and almost everything smells like it's supposed to. It wasn't a quick fix; I didn't just start to feel better, it took a couple weeks at least, but it really seems to have worked.

So, you might consider giving that a try.

I can also recommend the Yogi Tea "Stomach Ease" tea. Very gently flavoured with liquorice, and it does help.

Really? I've always been so skeptical about acupuncture, but in actuality I don't know very much about it. It does make me curious, hearing you say it's working for you....
