Candida makes me feel punk
Right now, I'm sitting at an empty desk at John Hancock in Boston. While I would love to share my four-day adventure to Singapore last month, sadly, I have neither the time nor the energy. I'm heading back to Nova Scotia tomorrow and I'm losing a card game to the slumbermonster.
Earlier this week, I was referred to an 80-something doctor who practices internal medicine. He said something that sounded like a defunct phrase from the 1940s. He said, "You're tests are all coming back good but we need to check your glands and find out why you're feeling punk." My favourite part was how he used the word, "punk." Suddenly, I feel like using it all the time.
I'm also recommending a very, very well-done Quebec film that was released a couple of years ago. It has been on my "To-Watch" list for sometime now and I just finished watching it on my laptop here. It's called, "La Grande Séduction" and it's an out-there comedy about a small French fishing village (pop. 120) who are desperately trying to find and keep a doctor on their little island in the middle of nowhere. I'm happy to say that I enjoyed it and I only wish I'd watched it before. A very charming little film.
And finally, I am on an indefinite diet following a visit to a naturopathic doctor. I am on the Candida Protocol, I believe it's called. If you don't know what that is, you can google it yourself because I don't feel like explaining it. I am barred from consuming anything with yeast, sugar (ALL sugars) and wheat. This has narrowed my diet to rice, spelt, rice, kamut, fish and rice. My first glass of rice milk was like something out of a dream. It was breathtaking. I will never go back to regular milk. Oh, yeah, and in stark contrast, soy milk tastes like shit.
