Day 1   10 Am I have an appointment with my Doctor, Some test and I walk out with the Levo device.  The day was fine, i'm full of hope. Is bed time and i'm using the iPod touch for the first time. I had some trouble sleeping, wake up every 2 hours. A bad night and a hard day with the ringing.  I need to  get used to the earphones. I put the device inside my pillow with a I touch cover for protection.
​
​Day 2  I sleep better, but maybe because I needed to take 0.75 Xanax.  That’s a lot for me, I don't like the addictive relationship. I saw my mother struggling with anxiety and always try to deal with my problems without drugs. But I guess its different now. Sleep depravation aggravate the noise. So, Let's rock & roll.

​ ​If you have any questions,  just ask. ​
Day 3    ​Woke up fabulous, Creative, cook lunch & dinner, clean my house and a good appetite. Everything was fine, but when I got to bed:  Another nuit blanche. Larry wake up to work at 5:30 and I’m still awake. Took 0.75 Xanax and sleep at 6:30 am. Wake with the noise at 6 - on a  1 to 10 scale.  I had to stop going to the gym, the music was so loud that it hurt.  My new afternoon routine is run & walk the neighborhood,  knowing that I’m in treatment make me more calm. After dinner   we light candles with nice smells, our session of aromoteraphy, a quiet moment right before bed.

​​Day 4   Today a brown pit bull jumped on me during my run and hurt my tricep. I love dogs, but this one make me very nervous. We call the police. A handsome Sheriff took my report. He  looked like a Chippendale dancer. My noise got high again.  I meditate to calm down.

Day 5   I   Slept well but at 8 am I waked up with no earphones, they must've fallen out during the night, so I put them back in to sleep again. I'm committed. Its  Friday night, the noise is not too bad. Quiet evening with my hubby.

Day 6  I sleep 11 hours last night . The noise is s little bit softer. My husband is very aware and  protective of my tinnitus so he took me to a park. I love nature, its very relaxing for me and brings me back to my childhood . We had a weekend house close to the Paraná River in Argentina, my happiest moments growing up. 
​
Day 7   Having a matcha in a coffee place, always outdoor - I still can't handle the in door noises - but I'm calm, we just come back from another picnic in the park. The nicest in the area: Rancho San Antonio. Cheese, bread, ham, olives  and scones. I Now, I only drink mineral water, no more soda, no more caffeine,  this is my new thing. Makes me feel clean. 

This condition makes me apreciate the simple things & appreciate the now, the moment I'm living, without worrying about tomorrow. Enjoying today.  ​​

Day 8​  Its been  just a week and Im calmer already. I Woke up feeling fresh & happy, there is nothing better than a good night sleep right now,  no interruptions and colorful dreams.  The weather help. i love the heat, is 28 C - 82 F - put me in a very good mood. I sun tan 30 minutes every morning in my backyard. its now 5 Pm, Im using the device in Awake, daytime mode. Organizing my closet and doing some gardening. 90 minutes go smoothly but when I stop i feel a little bit sick. I know is powerful because after 30 minutes the noise become softer.

​Day 13   Today is the best day since I Start the treatment. I woke up with a little noise and that never change. The feeling is so good that  I 'm full of energy, happy & hopeful. We went to Los Altos, a nearby city, to have lunch and chill out. Its still hard for me to go inside closed places, like restaurants. but after, that night we went to my favorite vietnamese.

Day 57  Week 8 No a good night, wake up many times, I'm tense, my eyes are red, energy lever very low, may be is related with the fact I don't take sugar for 3 weeks. I check my acidity on the orine, 5,75. No sun tan or lunch, just a kale & melon smoothie but double yoga session - I have a new mat - breathing excersise and a long conversation with my mom, she is worried about me. Watching videos about Mindfulness, need to find calm & be more positive. Pasta with shrimp for my hubby and a big green salad with shrimp for me, too big, I'm still not hungry so few bites and I'm done. Is early so we are in Barnes & Noble right now, my hubby is half way with his book, Agatha Christie: Murder on the orient express, I'm watching videos about the brain and how the thoughts affect us. 11;30 Pm, just finish a low back massage to my honey. I love you Larry Jay Fleming.
