I've been extremely exhausted. I've

developed rashes, and other lovely details best left unsaid. I'm

wonding if it would be better to take some time off, or should I

continue to work? Work has been very stressful at this time due to the

nature of the work (normal stuff, just an intense period). Has anyone

else been able to " work through the pain " and come out OK? Is this

a " flare " ? Should I notify my Doc? I'm not used to not being able to

do anything, but when I get to work in the morning, all I want to do is

put my head on my desk and take a nap. I've found myself watching more

TV, but not really paying attention - kind of in a daze. I'm really

type A and this is driving me crazy! I wish I could get a prescription

for a hot tub too. Wouldn't it be lovely to just sit in a hot tub and

let all the heat soak in and soak all the aches out?
