I think I have been doing to much lately and Im feeling alot of pain in my back and scatia pain. I have alot more to do today and this weekend and not sure if I can. I know that my diagnosis are light compared to alot of you but its still nice to know you guys understand.

When I am standing, my legs almost feel like they are giving up on me. I have taken some meds and light stretches and some excersises.

Sorry to hear of your added pain today. I think one of the hardest things we all struggle with is trying to pace ourselves.

Especially when it comes to getting all the things we "have" to do in our lives but also trying to save some energy for the fun things we "want" to do like a holiday weekend.

I definitely empathize with you! We are having a very windy day today, (although I'm loving the cooler weather as I want to enjoy spring before the heat of summer arrives), and I just had to go out and clean up about 70 small to medium branches all over the yard, sidewalk, and street. My lower back has been tweaking lately so I tried to make sure I did squats instead of bending...but I know my buns and legs will be sore from that tomorrow! LOL

I hope that your meds and a bit of stretching will help and try to block in some time here and there to rest in between those activities.

Sorry to hear you are having a major pain day. I think we all know how those feel.

Hope it passes quickly for you.

Hi Sophia I don't think I've welcomed you to the forum yet. Welcome. I'm sorry you're having a high pain day. I can sympathize, as I am too. The reason I am, is that my doctor has taken over a month to get my meds to me. I hope you feel better really soon. Take care.

hugs

Hi Sophia,hoping today's a better day for you and that your able to enjoy the holiday weekend some.

Take it easy and don't over do it when you feel better. I will get a good day and go nuts catching up all that's got behind, laundry, errands and such and make myself ten times worse then I was. Never learn.

Sorry to hear about your pain flare, Sophia. Did you take something for inflammation, an NSAID? Inflammation of the nerves sheath ( the myelin sheath) is often the cause of these out of the blue bad days. Best of luck, Least of pain . . . Q

I have learned the hard way to keep my body strong, but not to push over the line. Wherever your "line" is , find it and work with it.

Always try to keep your body strong, but don't ask it to do what will be detrimental to your condition. It's all about finding the balance !

Feel better

Thanks guys - You are the BOMB!!

Yah Quincy I did take some Nsaids. I have to. I agree I have to slow down sometimes but its hard. I like things done.

Anyhow I really hope you all are enjoying your weekend and keep it safe!

Hiya

Sorry to hear that, its awful when bad days flare up out of nowhere. All you can do (like I am now in fact) is focus intently on other things to take the mind off it. Hopefully it improves soon.
