My heart is palpitating really bad, I'm a little shaky and tired. I look pale and my hands are cold and sweating. My parents don't want to take me to a doctor, they're busy with work, they asked me to ****ing wait. Idk what ill do. I'm hoping for the best, I can literally feel the blood in the veins of my arms with each and every heart beat. Guess who I'm nominating for worst parent of the year award?
Do you have aspirin? Did they supply you with any medicine from the hospital? Nitroglycerin?

When you fast (or eat a very low carb diet) your body depletes its stores of glycogen and will switch to alternative sources to fuel your body (ketosis). Some of the symptoms you've described are common during this process, but usually go away after your body becomes adapted. If you fast/eat very low carb for a few days and then eat a bunch of carbs, you may be keeping yourself in a perpetual state of this, where your body isn't becoming adapted.
Keto flu!

When i was a small child my two younger brothers and I really loved Christmas.
Christmas Day was special, of course, and the day after was Boxing Day when we'd go to grandma's and grandad's and get more presents under their tree and have a second Christmas dinner. :) The day after was Thank You Day, when we had to write all our than yous to the relatives and friends who'd sent us gifts, vouchers or money.
Christmas Eve was busy, last minute shopping, wrapping, certain family traditions and all good fun.
So what about the day before which was the day to get really excited about the next few days ?
What comes before an Eve ? A morn, or an afternoon didn't seem right.
So I came up with the thought of what comes first, the chicken or the egg ?, then what comes first, the turkey or the egg?
The egg is first, so therefore Christmas Egg was the day before. ( I was only a small child).
Anyway, my brothers are long gone, now, but the tradition of a relaxing Christmas Egg continues to this day!

Gosh, i would never do a cold UK Christmas again, not for all the tea in China.
Mind you, I did a Christmas in Poland, and that was indescribably cold.
Hot sunny Christmas, please!
Go to New Zealand! It's summertime for them, so their traditional Christmas celebration is a barbecue on the beach!!! :):):)

We are having internet problems here at home, so I am not likely to be on much until it's sorted out. :(
When I CAN get on, it will likely be in the water turtle section to help with my new turtle.
If I don't get on here before then, a very Merry Christmas to all Cold Dark Roomers!!!!! :)
