Re: feet? moving...doing more...

[Guest guest]

Yeah, when I began to feel better, I got a little wild and blew off pacing

myself or being careful- that was not a good idea, but- gosh I just felt so much

better!

I seem to be settling into a funk where even tho I do feel better, I am still

sorta inactive sometimes....I say it is fatigue or being tired....Maybe it is a

depressive thing, maybe it is fear of overdoing it, some days I think I have

forgotten that I am not as sick as I once was, I am not sure. I do know, when

it first hit, it was in and out and when I was doing bad, it was far more

intense than now, but longer times in between bad times, and now it is much much

less intense, but more joints at a time flaring, but the pain is not the same

intensity but it is more constant, maybe it zaps strength this way?

Tess, We all tend to overdue it when we get to feeling a little

better. I know you have a lot going on right now, we never know how

much we have until the move,......

I also have a lot of problems with my feet recently. I hurt in the

big toe joint also, I'm getting where it's hard for me to bend my

toes. You be careful, and I will keep you in my prayers, Tawny

Tess, maybe you're not only moving more but moving in ways you aren't

used to. Whatever the case, do mention it to your doctor.

Hope your move goes smoothly and that you'll be feeling better in all

ways very soon.

I'll tell you where to go!

Dear Tess,

You're not Superwoman, just Wonderwoman! Give yourself a break and

slow down! You don't have to climb that mountain in one day, just

one step at a time. What would you tell me?

Love ya,

Judi

Tess,

After my moving experience, I hurt everywhere. Actually I still have not

recovered and hope I didn¹t do permanent damage. Please take care and don¹t

over do it. I hope your pain is just from being more active and using

muscles more. Please let your doc know.
