Happy Hump Day!!!

If only I had a camel that would walk across the screen... or in real life! Man that would be so cool!!

Today here it is cold and rainy. My skin feels as if I have 3rd degree burns across my entire body, my fingers and legs hurt. One different symptom for this time is my back and neck having pain. Last year I don't remember it affecting my torso this much. Up both sides of my neck across my shoulders and down my right side of my back feel that they are in constant strain. I have a full day of work ahead of me and it is currently not going too well. I have on a hoodie and sweats. Due to the my skin burning when  the wind blows or when something touches it I put on a tighter fitting long sleeve shirt to act as a second layer of skin that would protect my actual skin. Today seems like the day where everyone is touching me!!! I just want to scream out but instead I scream silently in my head.This has helped a lot. I also joined a support group on Facebook but they seem to complain a lot and it seems like there is not ever anything happy that happens to them. LOL I try to keep the complaining to a minimum and focus on the good things.

One of the things that has helped me through is setting small goals such as: make it to the car, make it in the house, make it through work, buckle up... then I cheer myself on when I reach these small goals. I also listen to music as much as possible. If you're just getting to know me I looooove music! It calms me and gives me energy. I have gone gluten free and am not eating sugar or meat this week. Right now I just want something good. Something fried and or something chocolate. Or some mac and cheese would be so comforting right now.  Enough about food. I am at work and we just won our special needs basketball game.  I am so excited!!! I cant wait to see what else great happens today! I will update you guys soon. Have an amazing day!!

P.S: If this doesn't make sense I am heavily medicated so forgive me! LOL!!

Note: Please start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Well the Neurontin is not helping and I have not heard back from the nurse with the results from the last visit on Feb. 28th. So I went to see him. His receptionist said that they are down a nurse and that she would be calling me with the results and making the call to set up the appointment with the nerve conduction specialist. Me: What??? She hasn't called yet? Are you serious? She was picking up the phone when I left your office last visit. You mean to tell me since then she hasn't had time to make one phone call? Her: Ma'am calm down please. There is only one of her. Me: There is only one of me. But you didn't mind charging me my copay regardless of whether I could pay it, you don't care that I came to you in pain and am still in pain possibly because she didn't do her job. No, I will not calm down.  (Within one hour she called me with my appt and blood results. Blood results showed nothing)...

OMG! OMG! OMG! 5-1

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: Today was an ok day. I worked all day chasing after clients. I taught one fitness class that uses equipment that I have to grip and hit. The pain usually comes when I hit the equipment together so I have learned to hold my left pointer finger up instead of allowing it to grip with the others. The pain is a radiating vibrating pain that goes down my finger. It is excruciating, but I have learned to adapt. In this class we also sit on the ground which is becoming harder and harder. I now have severe pain in my hips and back when sitting down. But I made it through the day! The class! and now its time for another class that requires more equipment, heavy equipment like big tractor tires and  such. Well I loaded all 4 tires, plus heavy weighted bars and various other equipment. Got to the location feeling ok so I moved the 30 plus chairs and 8 tables that needed to be moved. Luckily my friend, my right hand woman in class showed up and h...

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Today I ask 6 friends to pray and fast with me for a healing. The bible says when two or more are together that God is there. I need God to be here. I need Him to heal my body. I am at a loss and my body is shutting down quickly. Every step is like fire, hot sand and blisters but my bones get so cold. I hate walking. But I will not quit. I have thought about a wheelchair or crutches just to have relief. Some relief would be so nice right now. But I can walk so I will. My work load has increased drastically and it is so painful.  I think about calling in every morning. But bills wont get paid that way. I can do it. I just have to will myself. My support group will help. I am so thankful that I have friends that will be there an pray with and for me. How I felt: hopeful.
