I am the ama king with a virtually endless supply of it in my intestines.
Hmm I do have water problems (and bile stasis). Both green and black tea are maybe the drinks that I do best with. Ever since I got sick water has tasted terrible. And I never remember liking water when I was younger. But it has been a very long time since I had that particular dream.
I still think parasites are the cause of all these problems. When I pass the really big ones my metabolism starts to actually work for a short period of time, I'll sweat a little bit. Otherwise I'm perpetually stuck.
When I first got chronically ill the cat dream started and recurred many times. It didn't stop until I had substantially recovered.
An interesting thing is that some years after becoming ill and steadily progressing is I have perfect/eidetic dream recall.
