Easter Egg High

Note: Start reading at "The Why"

What Happened:
In the emergency room they ask you to rate 1-10. 10 being the worse and 1 being the least. Well today is a 10.5. I can't sit, I can't stand, I can't walk, I just can't do it today. I don't want to do it today. I don't want to walk or work or sit or be around people or be in pain. I am tired of being in pain. Today is not the day to try anything stupid. It will take everything I have to hold in all of this and just be nice.....UGH!!! I'm so glad it's a Saturday and after I teach these classes I can go to bed.

Well that was the plan. After teaching two classes I picked up my nephew and his friend and took them to an Easter Egg Hunt. Lots of fun for them but not so much for me. I managed to be around several people and put on a happy face. The kids had an amazing time and I survived. I am ok with that.

After dropping the boys off I went home and relaxed. I took a bath in my muscle and joint soak and went to bed. I had a hot date lined up.....cancel. LOL! I probably wouldn't be much fun today anyway. I know I know. I'm going through this and thinking about dating... YES!!! I am still single. But I did cancel lol. Then 30 min later I got a text from a friend. A friend who likes playing with "trees". Although I have never partaken in these activities they say it helps with pain. After all they give it to people with cancer....right? Right!

OMG I can so see why they give it to people who are in extreme pain. The only thing that hurt me for 4 hours was my leg, in one little spot in the front. Oh the relief. For the first time in sooo long I was not in pain over my whole body. There was no fire on my feet. No pain in my hips. I could sit, I could stand, I could walk normal. I could be me. I was almost me. The person I was before Feb.10 the  person I strive to be everyday. For people with cancer...and doctors who recognize that this is a great way to treat pain Go YOU. For governments who are stuck in the 1950s who want everyone to be in pain so they can keep control.....SCREW YOU! Both of these statements are from the bottom of my heart.

How I felt:
Angry at the beginning. And relieved at the end. Ahhhhhh

Bang Dem Sticks

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: I teach a class called Pound. It is amazing class with drumsticks that you bang together and lots of movement up and down, on the ground, back and forth. It is an amazing full body workout that I absolutely love. Today's class was horrible! Absolutely horrible! I went to hit my sticks together and my pointer finger radiated with pain. I dropped my sticks (which very rarely happens to me). I kept teaching but let go of my left stick. When we got down to the ground my hip area hurt so bad that I could barely sit, much less move side to side. I was in so much pain throughout the class. I managed to smile through the class but I just wanted to cry. But there are people to help get fit and no time or crying. My fingers also feel like I have blisters on them when I text or use them to type. And without texting you cant post to FB, IG, or talk to friends. I do all of the above a lot. Today was a very quiet day. How I felt: Scared. Wi...

The Longest Night

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Two days ago I quit taking my Neurontin cold turkey. I did not know that you were suppose to wen yourself off gradually........I went from taking 1500mg to nothing. Help me Holy Spirit, Sweet baby Jesus! I need the father, the son and the Holy Ghost!!! All three right now! I am sweating like I  have been working out, my head hurt soooo bad and I cant stop trembling. This post wont be long because my vision is a little blurry but I wanted to write to explain the way I feel right now. It is 3 am and I have been up since 11 pm trying to not throw up or call my mom crying. I googled reactions to coming off of  Neurontin and I match most of them. Oh dear LAWD!!!! If this is what it feels like to be on drugs and come off....Never get on them but if you do just stay on them (yes this feeling is that bad). Every time I close my eyes there are images of Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and other characters from Looney Tunes but only half of th...

The Day My Life Changed

What Happened: It's funny they say you don't remember a traumatic event, well I remember! (Yes I know compared to some my event is not horrible but for me it has been) Feb 10th started off as a normal Friday. I went to work as normal, taught an aerobic class and went to Wal-Mart. After being in Wal-Mart approximately 20 min and standing in a VERY long line my calf muscles begin to burn on both legs. Of course when you workout as much as I do you go through shoes pretty frequently, with this in mind I figured that I just needed new shoes. The pain and burning got so bad...I took them off. After checking out I hobbled to my car. I took my passenger by Wendy's (which we did every Friday after class). At this point I still felt a little pain in my legs but overall just felt weird. With driving 3/4 mi from the drive through while eating a french fry (healthy right?😏) my jaw locked up. I was completely unable to move it. I tried to keep a calm face even though I was freake...
