One of those days (whinge)

[hummingwolf]

So this turns out to be one of those days when I wonder why everything suddenly looks blurry and then I realize that I'm crying because of the pain. Oh, that'll do it. Some parts of my body feel strangely numb, but I suspect that's because they're surrounded by other body parts in enough pain that they only seem numb by comparison.

Ever feel like something has sucked everything out of your head creating a painful vacuum, while at the same time heating up the outside of your head so that it feels like your skull is going to melt? Yeah, that's one of the not-numb parts of my body, except for parts of my forehead which have very little feeling.

Will go out and do things today. Will probably not be happy about it.

Here's hoping I can get some rest tomorrow and then go out and do things again on Friday, preferably with less pain involved.

Hope you find a way to enjoy your day anyway!

I sometimes get that vacuum/hot feeling when I have a virus. And pain... yep... I know that feeling too.

*sympathy*

That sucks. Hope the symptoms improve soon.

One of the things that inspires me so much when I read your posts is that yes, you hurt, and then you go do something. Amazing strength of character.

The highest pain day I can recall that I still went out was Good Friday. I walked in pain so all encompassing and intense it became like an aura around me in which I walked--even tho' I had taken all 5 of my daytime Rxs. I was going to just go home and not go to Service when I realized if what I believed had any meaning then what pain my Savior had suffered when I was only suffered this for me. I went.

Thank you!

Y'know, I do believe that chocolate was a key to my feeling better yesterday afternoon. ::nod::

(Note to self: Get more chocolate.)

Thank you.

I did. :-)

Thank you for the sympathy. Now I just need to fix another cup of tea to go along with it. :-)

[hummingwolf.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I felt better later in the day, though now I'm paying for my activity a bit.

Heh. Given how much time I've spent lately doing much less worthwhile stuff than I think I should, this is strange to read. I don't think strength of character is involved so much as desire to avoid complete boredom! But thank you.

as "everything is relative" I stand firm in my inspiration.

I know what you mean. I pay in the short term for being active with pain, but I pay in the long term with gaining weight and losing energy and muscle tone. Unfortunately I haven't figured out yet how to balance the two.
