enduring.

As I shared in my previous post, we have been pretty sickly here in the Hippie Hut.

Unfortunately, it seems to be continuing this week.

There was a serious issue with one of my critical meds for several days, causing me severe pain – which we’ve not been able to fully get back under control now that the problem has been corrected – and we spent hours yesterday waiting at the doctor’s office as well. This was awful for me and also for my better half who took off work to take me. (He is the best. ❤ )

Doctor’s office waiting rooms and lights and chairs aren’t the best even for healthy people, much less chronic pain patients.

That said, with all that has happened recently, I am just absolutely exhausted and achy and I feel completely like a sickly spoonie – and I HATE this feeling so much.

indoors and in pjs for the weekend.

I am noticing that I am having pain in joints that haven’t given me trouble in quite awhile – so I am upping some supplements and planning to rest extra (as if I had a choice right now) to hopefully stop this flare that seems to be worsening.

Of course, tomorrow is another Enbrel day – but I already feel like hell and have a sore throat so I may be messaging my rheumy to see if we need to hold it this week or not.

Who knows, he may say to go ahead.

Either way, this weekend we’ll snoodle up with lots of football and baseball and cozy blankets and snackies and naps and hopefully get patched up.

This is a rough one for sure.

Be well, everybody. Take care of yourselves and each other.

Grace and Blessings.
