Okay. So, lately, I've been going to the spa once a week. I'm not super rich, I just decided that with the money I'm currently spending on healthcare, I might as well go to the spa. So anyway, I am trying to get there once week for a one hour private dip in the hot tub (only $22!). So I go, and this time decide to treat myself to a foot massage (definitely a rarity guys!). Anyway, as I'm lying there I practically have a panic attack. 1.) I can't get relaxed, no matter what I do or how hard I try and that is ALL the time. 2.) The pain from a weather change (rain!) was SO terrible. I actually was almost crying because I forgot my pain medication. Does anyone else have this issue? It is like--do I have FMS because I can't relax? Or is it that I can't relax BECAUSE I have FMS?

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...

I told him, when my pain gets overwhelming and I just can't take it any longer I stress and try to control the world because I cannot control this disease at all and I need something in my life that doesn't feel so out of whack! So that's why I stress and try to control things!
I think that makes sense!
Take care,
Stay sane!
