Re: A New Experience
It certainly has become a way of life that I have learned to cope with fairly well over the years. It's almost akin to not realizing that you can't see until you put on a pair of glasses. Most days I get up in the morning tired and hurting. I push myself through my day doing the things that are necessary. By the end of the day, I not only hurt but it feels like my muscles are on fire. I have had some relatively good spells through the years and some really bad ones. One flare cost me my job because I could not get out of bed. Things are better now because I have learned to take time in between my tasks to rest. I am not on any medication. We lost our insurance last March. I have found a cream "Two Old Goats" that has been beneficial in relieving the burning sensation long enough for me to go to sleep, but sleep still eludes me many nights.
