Started at the Gym

We got a gym membership this weekend and last night I started with a trainer.  I am hoping that by building my strength I can reduce my pain and increase my overall health.  However..we will see if my old friend anxiety cooperates.  My counselor has warned me before that at first when I start working out it may increase my anxiety...I'm not sure what the reason is but I guess it is common.  It's been a while since I've had a full blown attack...some minor skirmishes in the war but nothing major.  Of course right now I feel all tough and say bring it on!  We'll see how tough I seem when it hits.
