MEDICAL BRACLETS
I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT, SO DO WE REALLY NEED ONE WITH THE SLEEVE OR NOT? NOW I'M CONFUSED. ALSO I DON'T WANT ONE THAT SCREAMS IT LOUD AND CLEAR ESPECIALLY SINCE NOONE KNOWS I HAVE BEEN SLEEVED.

What's everyone eating one month out ?
I have eaten chili, tender steak in tiny pieces, cheese, cottage cheese, cooked greens, yogurt, Quest bars, shaved turkey, fish, fine slaw, nuts, the only thing I can't take is scrambled eggs or DESIGNER Protein. I can eat a fried egg but scrambled hurts and DESIGNER PROTEIN makes me nauseous and makes my heart race. Tried it for a week no more, I'm ready to throw it out.

Change in sleep patterns
I am experiencing this. I wake up at 2, 3, 4 am and its very hard to go back to sleep, too dark to walk, and too noisy to do chores while everyone else is asleep. Makes me a little tired thru the day but then I can't break the cycle because I can't stay up past nine since I'm so sleepy.
