too young to feel this damn old

As I woke up today,aching as always,getting out of bed is a struggle,I feel like the only part of me that don't hurt is the crack of my ass,God I suppose thats next.It's an effort to get 2 loads of laundry done,and make supper. To look at me I look fine,healthy ect...But to live in my body is another thing. My Mother is 75 yrs old and still works 40 hrs a week and can run circles around me.
I have alot of good support people around me,But I feel like such a Dud. I used to be fun.I'm just to young to feel this damn old. Thanks for letting me whine.

S, lol. So true. This is how i feel daily, then add in trying to take care of everyday household things, our kids and work.

I can't wait to see how we will feel in 10 years.

Tommorrow my dear, im crossing my fingers the Dr. jumps in with both feet and gives u something to help relieve your pain.

Im not much fun anymore either and im a hell of alot younger than you. lol But i certainly don't feel like I am.

I hear ya! My mother-in-law is 76 and does circles around me, it is so frustrating. Looking at me too, I look fine, but deep inside I hurt. Hope you start feeling better soon. Janet

S, i am feeling like someone hit me with a ball bat or 18 wheeler today but i didnt get much sleep. I am on my way to the rheumo shortly and will let you know how it goes.
I am also going to ask him about the provigil bcause this fibro fatigue is just as bad as the flare.

i feel like im 90

I've been saying that for years...and I still haven't learned not to compare myself to healthy people. If someone can shine a light on how to accept this disease, I'd love to hear it. Soft hugs, Deb

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
