Re: NO ENERGY... This takes the cake... or candy?

> I was laying on the couch last night on my second off day from work.

Feeling like I was totally drained. I had a bad taste in my mouth

and wanted a piece of candy from a dish that was not more than 4 feet

away. I had to contemplate the energy it would take to get up and get

it. I decided it was not worth it. No wonder people label us as

lazy. But it isn't lazy, it is fibromyalgia. It is pretty sad when

you have to weigh the energy vs. benefits of getting up for something

that simple.

> It just seems at times it is worse than others. You all know what

I mean. I feel a " little " better today but not alot. I have to go to

work soon. I honestly don't know how I am still able to get up and

go......out of pure necessity I guess.

> But what about the day that comes that I can't get up and go to

work???? no matter how necessary it is? I fear that day.

lap, it just about killed me with pain. What the hell?

> Hi Debra, I have had many of those days you just described! It

sucks!!!! I had many of those days that I just could not get out of

bed to go to work, thank god I had a very understandable supervisor

that understood my circumstances, as she has RA, my employer also came

to me and told me that it would be a good thing for me to sign up for

the FMLA, which I did and that helped alot in the condition that i

was in!So i just want you to know that I understand completely where

you are coming from, and support you in any way i can Hugs to you Leanne
