I just got back from 8 days on the road...and the usual fear of having to intubate every other hr etc..Nope...only 6xs a day....youppiiiii!
I radically changed my diet pre trip and added carbs for the first time in my life to the mix...then went to plain yoghurt for breakfast with a couple of prunes to get things going and empty out, a normal lunch and dinner without any carbs...And pooof! Magic.
8 days and I intubated less than in a usual weekend..
Who'd'a thunk!

It could be worse...oh, wait..it already has been! then I guess it can only get better from here....
