Well, I look the picture of health at the moment. All this time off work, sunbathing and walking is doing me the world of good. I guess I'm not a patient patient though and have been doing far too much work, lifting etc. The surgeon warned me that if I don't take it easier then the spine won't fix properly, which of course I knew... But I feel like I'm getting better so it's confusing to know ( or admit to know!) what to do for the best. The nerve pain in my arm is returning though so that is my cue. I am going to slow down. Just walk, walk, walk....in the rain...thunderstorms...! Thank you for asking.
Depends on the variety. As I said, there are few I can handle, and they happen to be the expensive ones--Misty New Top and Ming Qian An Ji Bai Cha (sp?). Certain whites and puers I can drink by the pot full before bed. I've found one oolong I can drink. All the others turn me into the Tasmanian Devil, of the Loony Toons variety.
