Paradox,
I hope you are doing better. Please take care of yourself - easy for me to say! One way I found to help me up my carbs some when I didn't feel like eatting much with the heat (I'm in SC) was to add some berries. Get a nice hunk of cheese and some strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries etc, put some heavy whipping cream on them if you like. This will cool you down and up your carbs and calories. It helps me when I have stress headaches, but mine don't sound nearly as bad as yours. Take care and know we are thinking good thoughts for you.
