Week 3, day 1

I went to see the chinese doctor again the day before yesterday for another acuptuncture session.

I was determined to tell her that I didn’t want to take anymore tablets because firstly, they do not seem to do anything. (I failed everyday to take them in the morning or the evening, but still, I was having 8 tablets a day!) And secondly, they are not cheap at all.

The chinese doctor managed to convince me to continue the treatemet. She said she was trying to find the right balance between giving the best treatment possible at the best cost.

So I went for the acuptuncture session again today.
I told her that my period had been delayed by one week.

She put a lot more needles this time.

And although when I first went for acupuncture, I felt somewhat, an improvement in the next 4 to 5 days after, this time, nothing at all. I feel it’s getting worse even. Is it because I have been drinking a different tea, recently? I have been drinking Yerba Mate from Argentina. It does have a bit of mattein, which is a stimulant like caffeine.
I really like this drink. I had about 3/4 litre everyday.

I will not drink any Yerba Mate this week-end and see how it goes. And I will try not to forget to take my medication this time. I really would like this to work.
I do not want these urges anymore. I want to be able to drink 3 pints of beers and be OK.
I want to be able to go the toilet and that it lasts for ever and ever..
