Try to stay as active as possible, Joy. I'm a strong believer that if you keep your body moving, it can work things out. Your circulation needs to keep flowing to move the medicine through you and move the bad stuff out. It'll keep your mind from getting bogged down and depressed, too.
Sending healing thoughts your way. Celeste
