Chronic Pain Support Group
Physicians and professionalsdefine pain as chronic if it lasts longer than three to six months and is persistent. It's distinct from acute pain that is a direct result of injury or trauma. This support group is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain. Discuss treatments that have worked for you, find advice for your specific experience, and find support. You're not...
Yesterday I was a jungle gym for my nieces. We had a cook out at my sister's place and my nieces expect me to be super-woman because I *used* to me... I just can horse around with them like I used to and they don't understand that. It makes me feel awful.
I did my best to keep up with them, but I am really paying for it today. It feels like my knee is out of place and I was kicked repeatedly between my shoulder blades on my spine. I have a 7 1/2 hour trip tomorrow to AZ... I think I'm going to ask for a wheelchair at the airport... But my pride is holding me back... I think I have to tho, because I am just not up to walking all over.
Some days I just hate life. Plus, this morning went awful.
Woke up late
Didn't have time to shower
Missed therapy
Got on the bus to see my med nurse (for my bi-polar)
The second bus was suuuupppperrr late and I missed that appt too
I woke up in so much pain I could barely move around- Still can't really.
GAH. Still need to go to the store, pack, clean, PACK- I'm OCD about packing because I always seem to forget something. Check 7million times and over again to make sure I have everything I need.... Back up my file onto my external hard drive, in case anything happens to my computer in transit....
I need a cup full of valuim.

Take a deep breath......and slooooooowly exhale. I am so sorry that you had a bad morning, missing your appointments.
In regards to your trip, try making yourself a list, visualizing everything you need, from toiletries to clothing, shoes, etc..., writing it down, then crossing everything off one by one. That way, you can just refer to your list to see if you have anything or still need something. This is how I always packed for a trip and it never failed me.
I hope your trip is for pleasure and that you have a safe trip to AZ. Suck in your pride and request a wheelchair if you need one. Just remember that you need to put your best interest first and if walking is going to be too much for you, then use the wheelchair.
Have a safe trip and enjoy yourself!
Hugs,
Carrie
My sister left her phone in the car yesterday and I forgot I grabbed it so it didn't get lost so now my mom has to come to my place to pick it up and bring it to my sister. My sister never takes the bus like I do... I just can't keep up with the drama. I am just ready to get on the plane now without packing! lol
