:p The grocery stores and Wal Mart looked like they were giving something away today...Xmas traffic..got to love it...NOT!!
Started off my morning going to the pain doc to pick up this month's script for tramadol, made a few stops at friends houses, ate some lunch and made a grocery run.
Ever since my knee pain went away from my surgery, the fibro flared up in my upper back and shoulders. I had a reprieve for a few days last week but now it is back with a vengeance...doing all the things to try to get it to calm down but it's still kicking my butt. Oh, Santa, all I want for Christmas is to not be in pain and discomfort...even for a few weeks, if not totally...I've been good this year, really!! I know I'm not the only one praying for that gift for Christmas.
I do pray to God that he gives me the strength and sense of humor to continue to deal with this frustrating condition. The hardest part is not being to make people (family members) close to me understand what I am going through and that I am not lazy or unsociable. It's a two fold whammy to have to suffer and then be misunderstood socially and go through the frustration of dealing with doctors and treatments that may or may not work.
Some days it just gets to me and I'm letting it out today.
Hugs to all who suffer and fight to have some quality of life. I understand and support you all. You are not what this condition has made you and you are a valuable human being even as you sit on your ice pack or heating pad and down your medications.
Wishing everyone better days ahead and a very Merry Christmas!
