Please don't apologize to me ever again, ok!? You're not "whining," you're COPING! It's fine and you can contact me anytime with stuff like this!
I'm so sorry things are so rough right now. I'm "lucky" in that everone knows I'm sick and that I may have to bow out of plans at the last minute. It's not great, but at least people understand. So far, people aren't getting mad at me...
Ruchie, I got some sleep last night. I actually woke up in a good mood (for the first time in weeks). I took Nyquil as a desperate measure before I fell asleep last night and darned if I didn't sleep! AMAZING!  I'm going to have to push my doctor's appt. back tomorrow 'cause I'm broke, so I'm not going to be able to get my Ambien. At least now I know the Nyquil will help 'til I can reschedule!
Ruchie, don't be embarrassed about the vaccuming! I swear, it seems pathetic, don't it!?  But do what you can do, then rest. You'll start winning against this fibro one day, and until then take this as a message from the cosmos that you need to slow down!
I don't know about you, but I think the slow thinking, stupid sentences and dropping things is almost worse than the pain, in a way. It sounds silly to say, but really: it's terrible to be low-functioning when you usually can make sentences and hold your keys in your hand! I dropped so many things this morning I couldn't help but laugh... it's ridiculous. And I know how sick I am right now 'cause I can't even figure out how to play my solitaire game. Remember these things, Ruchie, so that when you're feeling better and you feel the Fibro Frog sneaking up on you, you can take action immediately! I use the dropping things issue as my big clue. My other big one is when fashion magazines are getting harder and harder to read.... uh.... that's the Frog!
Hope you're feeling a little better this afternoon, Ruchie.
Love ya tons and tons. Gentle hugs to you!
