I am really paying for my trip to Philly last week to see my daughter graduate as NP.  Of course I wouldn't have missed it for the world, but I got through it(all!) on sheer will power.
I'm sorry for your delay, but I'm glad that you'll be there for your daughter's review.

I've been trying everything lately--small meals, more salt, ice cream (to make my mouth happy), more coffee, less coffee, alcohol.  Finally I took some Ritalin today (which I have for driving), and I actually got some relief, and I was able to cook a couple meals in advance.  I had been playing a lot of solitaire & just looking at catalogs.

I presume "the dying feeling" is dysautonomia, although I'm not sure.
