It's absolutely a real thing...I've had times when it has been so bad that I have only been able to get out of my apartment by going down stairs on my butt when my legs were too stiff and painful for stairs. There are things that can make Fibro more livable. Consistent exercise helps. I take Duloxatine, which helps a LOT…

Well, I was VERY sick for three days. COVID test came back negative, so I guess it was some sort of strange combination of food poisoning and allergies. I started feeling better midday yesterday, so I went out dancing for the first time in years last night! I only stayed for two hours, but it felt good. JFT for Sunday,…

Yesterday was such a crazy day that I did not even have time to write down goals. I did get my steps in, but only because I HAD to go for a walk for stress-reduction purposes. :) My interview is done and now my potential job switch is out of my hands, so I can relax a bit. The rest of the week should be more low-key...and…

Yesterday was kind of a lost day. Was busy at work and on camera all morning, so I did not get breakfast until noon.

Good news is that I should be able to swim later this week!…
