As I said in my last post, I got a bad batch of tramadol about 2 weeks ago and have been suffering quite a bit ever since. But yesterday from about 3 o'clock to 9 o'clock I felt extremely well, pain-free, and normal to high-energy!!! It was the wierdest thing and has been a long time!

I racked and racked my brain to see if I could figure out if I did anything differently but all I could think of is that I ate a Little Debbie nutty bar tongue (I doubt that was the "cure") would be nice though.

Anyway, who knows? can't explain it but, thoroughly enjoyed it!!!! I went out with my husband and we just kept doing things. I said, "hey, as long as I'm feeling so good, let take advantage of it and keep going!"

It was wonderful!

Anybody have similar experience? Cuz I really haven't been taking much of anything, cuz like I said my tramadol is just so weak (but have been taking normal dose just not as often....since there really is no relief).

I've been lucky to feel pretty good lately. My energy level has been up...I've been able to exercise daily and spend time hanging out with friends, getting housework done and making good meals for hubby. The surprising thing is my health has been declining but I feel "up" and happy. Attitude has definately helped :)

I have also had many good days lately. Must be the nice weather. I have had my bad days but the good ones way out number those. I do feel the pain all the time but I am so use to it now and my pain tolerance is pretty high so I tend to ignore it.

My problem is I ignore it so often that I wind up over doing it. So my advice is just to try to do what I can but not go wild crazy because I will pay for it the next day.

I do find that I feel better in the warmer months then colder, hence I shouldn't live where I do. LOL

I have experianced the same thing a handful of times in my 10 years with fibro. It sometimes comes in the morning, other times even in mid afternoon when you had a horrible day it can suddenly hit. My first thought is always the same...."do people really feel like this most of the time?" I would rule the world by now if I felt like this even for half my waking hours... scool

It fades very quickly and is so very rare. I have had about one or two a year. It is so surreal. I do the same thing when it hits...I do a lot more than normal. I have noticed that I will pay for it later as usual, but it is such a blast to do things when you don't feel tired or hurt.

I personally believe that it is the CNS working correctly for several hours before getting out of wack again. shocked

Hope it returns soon, to all of us.

Oh...FYI Nutty Bars actually do make me feel better...for real! But I can't decide if it is just my tastebuds talking or not. smilewinkgrin
Either way better is better! turn

Yes, I distinctly remember a day last fall when I had a whole day of it - was able to get TONS done and yes, you do have that feeling of, "Wow, I remember a time when I actually felt like this ALL THE TIME and wouldn't it be amazing to feel that way, consistently, again?" Once in a while, I'll get shorts bursts of energy for a few hours and I'll be largely pain-free, too, but these moments are fleeting. Rarely do I get a while day of it like the day I described above..What I wouldn't give for more of those days..
