One on the guaifenesin support group was struggling today. She is just a ‘toddler’ in the stages of reversal so I posted this to encourage her & others. Thought I’d share with you as I know I don’t post much about my fibromyalgia.
Shirley, it is OK to vent! We’ve walked in your shoes. Or not wanted to walk as well! ((hugs))
Today as I was out scraping frozen and packed snow off my driveway, I was so excited!! Three years ago it was difficult to walk to the bathroom.
When we went to church, dh dropped us off at the door. I HUNG onto dd’s arm and she led me to a seat immediately. I couldn’t stand when others would stand. After that was over, I’d lean to get back out to the car.
My legs felt like cement and sometimes I had to pick them up with my hands to change their position when I was sitting.
So today I shoveled snow.
Then I walked a bag of heavy garbage to the dumpster.
Then I wandered around the loop on our farm looking for my dh.
I found him and we walked to the barn. I approved the play area he built out of straw bales and misc boards for our new puppy that is coming home today. 🙂
I walked up the icy, snow-packed hill to the house. (and didn’t fall! 😀 )
