Hiiiiii everyone! Sorry I was away from my facebook for so long. I have been very ill... I was diagnosed with not one but 2 chronic pain disorders over the last several months (Fibromyalgia and IC). These are both life long disorders, meaning I can manage them, but they will affect me and cause me some amount of pain for the remainder of my life. That was kind of hard for me to accept at my age, dealing with the perceived loss of quality of life. I was completely bed ridden for a long while and experienced muscle atrophy, most severely in my legs - a shocking ordeal, really. So very strange... to be ok, then hurting for a few weeks, and suddenly deteriorate and be immobile for months. I had to be driven to appointments, wheeled from place to place, I could not even stand long enough to cook for myself. It was difficult both physically and emotionally. I went to lots of physical therapy (both water and land), pain management, and doctors appointments step by step. Through hard work, perseverance and the right medication, Im starting to feel better. I am a pretty resilient person, so I dont let much get me down. I am going to personal training four times a week to stay active and Im keeping up with my doctors appointments so I ensure that my health continues to improve! If youre wondering what will make me feel better I dooo have an Amazon wish list amzn/w/GHP0W3H84BI3 ;) ;0 ;) haha you know me! ^_^
