I know we have a thread about what is our worst time of day, but I was wondering: What is your best time of day?

For me, from the moment I get up until early to mid afternoon, I feel my best. Sometimes symptom-free. I try to meditate, exercise, run errands, see docs, work (I'm a writer) in the morning.

Then mid afternoon, the symptoms starts. Mime are usually: burning feet, some pain in my feet (feels like joint or muscle ache), patches of burning or stinging on my arms and torso, some joint pain, abraded palms, light numbness in different places. Sometimes I get headaches (mild now), but sometimes they start in the morning.

As a rule, I don't have brain fog, fatigue, etc.

Just curious. I need to hear positive news and look on the bright side of this awful disease.

Mine varies - but usually I can count on feeling pretty good in the late evening. From 9:00 p.m. on.
That's why it's difficult for me to go to bed early...as I'm finally feeling better.

Girlie, I can see that. By the time I go to bed (11 to 12), I feel fine again. It's so weird though.

I started pulsing (today is day 2 of no-abx), and I have seen an increase in symptoms. Wonder what the rest of the 12 days will be like....

I have been pulsing M/W/Th/F - two or three weeks on, and one week off - and am trying to figure out if my good days are the days i'm on antibiotics, or the days I'm off...so far I'm not seeing a trend that makes any sense.


So, you are off for 12 days?

my best time of day is when i'm sleeping so i don't feel any pain lol

Mornings are hard because I'm so tired. I guess my best time is from about 10 am to 2 pm. Once 3 pm hits, I have very low energy.

Girlie - that's interesting that you mention that you feel better from 9 pm on. Once in awhile, when I have to get some work done after the kids are in bed, I find that I can actually work and focus from about 9 pm to 11 pm.

I'm usually a bit stiff in the morning...and shivery...

I'm feeling like I need a nap right now and it's only 1:25 p.m.
Problem is - if I give in to the nap..then I will feel really crappy when I wake up...

Best time of day ... from 7 PM on until very late... no matter what time I get into bed, I am wide awake until around 1:30 AM.

my worst time of day is the morning. I simply never feel rested, and I could just roll over and ignore everything... luckily, I have a cute 4 legged friend who cares that I get up as my spouse would just leave me there, LoL! Some days, my puppy snuggles with me and it's impossible to get up. Other days, he is ready to romp and starts shoving toys in my face, hahahahahaha

Best time of day for me is always mornings. That is when I have the most energy. Not when I first get up, but after I eat breakfast and get moving around. By about 1:30 I have to go rest for a couple of hours.

Best time of day for me is mornings. Can't get up and bound out of the apartment like I used to. Need time to come to but usually don't have pain just feel a little tired. I seem to get more tired as day goes on and then notice twinges of joint pain but nothing terrible. Worst symptom for me is fatigue and mild brain fog but have had that since menopause/fibro/who knows.

Best time for me is when I'm in a deep sleep. 2nd best is like others. Mid morning-noon

Deep sleep? Lucky!

I'm with camel. evening, wide awake until late.

Evening here too. I anticipate going to bed so I don't have to keep thinking about this problem

Felt / feel better in the evening. Took a after work nap for years though. I would feel way better than after a long nights sleep (nope, a long night of insomnia!).

Hoping this changes as I can sleep at night again, still tired in the AM though.

Typically after 12:00pm and continue into the evening. Though it's starting to vary.

sam12 - I am with you. I anticipate sleeping!! I get out of bed in the morning and I think ... "I can't wait until I can go to sleep tonight." hahahahahahahahahahaha

Evening.
I wonder if this is due to adrenals??
Posted 9/9/2016 11:32 PM (GMT 0)
mornings, start to fade mid-afternoon, ready to do nothing by 5:00 pm - I continue to listen to that prompt.
