to get up i take pain killers and tablets that i hope will take the pain away ..
to drive i use a handle that i bought my self
to write or type i use splints to try stop movement that i bought
to walk i can use sticks or limp or fall over ...i bought
I take more pain killers and hot baths use a heated blanket or what ever it takes
I can not use a washing line or carry shopping i hurt .. so i use on line food and a tummble dryer even in summer ...
jars tins are a nightmare
the hover or duster forget it on some days
oh yes i can sleep with my kids and the tv on full if its one of those days
i look good and healthy ..
sometimes i slip i drop things including tea over me and this cased a hospital trip ( is sencative skin part of fms ?) i cant see straight or speech cose i am tired i cant sleep cose i in pain or just sleep ... dont move all day and hope
I have forgotten what a pain free day is like .. i am stronger than so many people i know ... i work ( i enjoy it) i study i do crochett dispite knowing it will make my hand hurt
I went out Yes out ! and danced and drank and a week later ... i feel like *****
i know i am lucky but to be honest i would like it not to be one of those days
