Whoops -- just realised I'd left a brainfart in the last post: strike 'Amazon' in the 4th paragraph; replace w/ 'Wally's'. The Amazon Furguard and Wally's Furguard are the same model; Target's is the downrated one. Guess my mind were stuck on Amazon for some reason (could it be the fact I can't buy this stick from them and expect to have it shipped to me maybe?). One of the weird s/es of the med (not to mention all the other liver-stressing cold meds I'm having to take) is flubs that used to stick out like a sore thumb like that, get by me -- not always, but much more often on this med. Apologies to anyone actually reading along
Building on the above post... memory lapses are getting a bit more common these days. Used to be, I'd get a feeling I were forgetting something. But since about the car incident, that's become 'oh s**t, I totally forgot', sailing way past PNR. Am thinking the liver and brain (as gut and brain) interdepend on each other, and the car thing and the med happened about the same time. Really weird -- something that stresses me out mentally, and something stressing my body physically, decide to happen within days of each other. Maybe I need to find another temple to frequent (and get omamori [Japanese Shinto & Buddhist warding talismans] from)
