Food yay
I'm getting a few more successful meals under my belt. Last night's huge "taco salad" (everything I'd otherwise put in a taco, but with no shell) was MMMMMYUM. Need to obtain some salsa without sugar. Also need to hardboil more eggs; 2 eggs and some sausage makes a wonderful breakfast that holds me until lunch even if I eat it at 6am.
Sleep yay
Also looked up how much diphenhydramine I can safely have in 24 hours. It's six times higher than the dose in my over-the-counter sleep meds. So I cranked those up a little last night and got ALMOST GOOD SLEEP! That was fabulous.
Taste boo
The taste in my mouth is awful. This is one of the more common side effects, apparently; some people say it's bitter, others metallic, and I think I'm a cross between the two. Fortunately the tastes of foods haven't changed dramatically, as some people report, but I'm sick of feeling like I really need to brush my teeth because my mouth has a thin coating of soapy tinfoil.
