How is everyone doing?

I hope well.

As for me I’ve been in bed for 3 days. Unmotivated. Not depressed just one of the many Ulcerative Colitis symptoms, Which is fatigue.

Other than that I’ve been ok. Can’t complain.

I hope you all had a great weekend ❤️

I’m okay-ish. 😜 Trying to figure out which of my symptoms are due to what. Musculoskeletal pain, pinched nerve, headaches, slight dizziness, fatigue…. I’m not suffering per se. Just not feeling good exactly.

UC is the worst! I’m so sorry you experience that. 😢 My BFF has that, too.

Hi Rafiki11

Yeah most of the days is “Bleh”

I had a pinched nerve too a couple years back, it triggered headaches and neck soreness.

I just massaged it almost everyday and it went away after a couple months. Heat pads help too.

Totally! I’m joyfully bleh most days. 😜

Interestingly, the headache preceded the pinched nerve. 🤷‍♀️ I think “something” is causing inflammation in my spine.

I’ve been massaging with a lacrosse ball, sitting in massage chair, using hand-held massager, yoga 3 hours per week, chiro, PT, turmeric, anx/dep meds….

I'm pretty good. I' m a bit nervous starting a small cover job tomorrow though. It also means extra driving in this heat

Hi roxylox,

Good luck in your cover job :)

I feel you on the Heat part.

I have to do chores and gardening early in the morning or late in the day when it’s not as hot

🥵

Thanks for your good wishes, good luck to you gardening in the heat. We went for a walk at 7.30 this morning and it was hot even then!

in reply to Roxylox

Yes I was hot before I got out of bed at that time so I did a short walk today as I feel better safe than sorry.

Hi hiba,

I would rather be in a real roller coaster 🎢

Than you know… a mental roller coaster.

But I’m happy you’re doing good today. Yay!!
