The experimental swift is collapsed and stashed. I probably spent more time on the write up than on last night's tinkering.
It's brisk here, another freeze. The lemon tree is still in the house, the other plants under the roof eves with the bamboo blinds shielding them from the direct cold. Edward went on walk about at around 7 this morning, after being out well past his dinner time last night.
I've been playing Dungeons and Desktop, rolling my D20 to select tasks in my easily distracted state of mind. While there is work mixed in the list, I managed to hit related medical tasks in a row: my followups are below.
Meanwhile, i'm listening to Christine struggle to get charges on her university bill straightened out. *Headdesk.* They seem to have converted a paid-for dropped distance class to an unpaid-for dropped on-campus at out-of-state-tuition class.

Email to allergist & PCP:
I would prefer morning appointments that would be done before 9:45 am or would start 11 am or later.
I have a complex of reactive issues: cough variant asthma, rhinitis, eczema/psoriasis, canker sores, occasional swellings of lips and eyelids. I'd like to discuss identifying environmental and food causes.
Thanks,

Dear Dr ---,
After working with the nutritionist over the past months, we think i may have a sensitivity to wheat, but it seems possible there are other causes for the reactivity. (Having a very low wheat diet seems to help my energy levels.)
My nutritionist has suggested a few tests and i thought i would see if you would participate in these through PAMF, before i chose an outside lab. I've gone ahead and scheduled an appointment with the allergist, as i had a significant reaction after the first rains in October. It would be nice to know how reactive i am to mold as well as other environmental and food triggers.
The other two tests are
* 25 hydroxy vitamin D
* free Ty and free T3 -- thyroid behavior
Would you like to schedule an appointment to discuss having these tests done or should i go through my nutritionist's labs?
Thank you,
[me]
