It was a busy week. I felt physically well through most of it, but yesterday and today I am struggling. I’m in bed with a migraine that I think I accidentally kicked off by enjoying a quiet walk on sunny snowpack. While I prefer to have illness strike on a weekend, I feel irritated that […]

Day 1221 and Migraines
I get really bad migraines. I do what o can to manage them but they are a frequent and challenging enough issue for me that I’ve got 45 separate entries on the topic. I’d prefer not to discuss it at all as it’s not a very pleasant experience but it can be so overwhelming that […]

Last year I was in Europe during a G5 event which is considered an extreme storm. It proved to be as unsettling as it was beautiful. Also migraine inducing. Just […]
Years ago after painful allergy patch testing, Julie Fredrickson’s husband Alex Miller made an allergen list sheet for her. Now using Replit, they have upgraded the sheet into a vibe coded ingredient checker application for all allergens.
Intrepid biohacker that I am, when I learned that my testosterone levels were concerningly low, I began on a program to raise them. I started with nutrition and supplementation but I already had a diet and supplement routine that was evidence based for raising testosterone levels in women. I added in DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) at 25mg. […]
