check-in


I'm in the middle of a fibromyalgia flare up. I was doing ok for a while but it hit suddenly on Saturday night and since then I have been completely non-functional. We went to Yosemite for Ronald to teach a class and came home last night. It was pretty exhausting and hard due to the pain I have been having, but it was still pretty and I tried to make the best of it.

Right now I feel like I have the worst flu of my life. I am so weak, can hardly stand up or sit up. I have nausea. Horrible pain and cramping through my entire body, even with being on strong pain medication. And a migraine like headache where I am sensitive to light and sound. I have to wear an eye mask just to relieve my headache enough to sleep.

The thing is, I have no idea how long this flare-up will last. My previous flare up lasted over a month, so that is possible, or I could feel better tomorrow, who knows. I am going to see a new doctor tomorrow and I hope she can give me some advice or new pain meds to try. The idea of walking and talking to a doctor sounds almost impossible right now due to my exhaustion. But I will do it, because I have to.

Not sure when I will be back to blogging, I will probably take a break until I feel a little better.

Sending love, C
