Symptom check-in

POTS: I had dizziness every time I stood up today and my heart rate jumped fast - I salted the eggs today, and the feta helped me get sodium in without thinking.

Vestibular migraine: I had no vestibular migraine symptoms today - no vertigo, no nausea, and no light sensitivity.

Lupus: I had body aches and a low fever today - I wanted something anti-inflammatory today that was fully cooked, gentle, and high-protein.


Disorder safety check

Condition

Works?

Why

POTS

Yes

Salt + protein helps; feta adds easy sodium

Vestibular migraine

Usually

Mild, non-acidic; pesto can be a trigger if it is very garlicky or has aged cheese

Lupus

Mostly

Eggs + greens are solid; pesto and feta are fine if tolerated, but keep it simple on sensitive days

Ingredients (1 omelet)

  • 2 to 3 eggs

  • 1 small zucchini, thinly sliced

  • Handful of arugula

  • 1 to 2 tbsp pesto

  • 2 to 3 tbsp feta

  • Olive oil or butter

  • Salt and pepper


Steps

  1. Sauté zucchini in a little oil with salt until soft and browned.

  2. Whisk eggs with salt and pepper. Pour into a pan and cook on low until mostly set.

  3. Spread pesto over the omelet, add zucchini, and fold.

  4. Top with arugula and feta.
