Well for the last 5 months I have been fighting my fibromyalgia more so than normal. I have had a lot more fatigue and pain lately, and had to come home from work after only an hour today. I must admit that I am getting a little bit scared. From all of my research over the years, fibro is supposed to plateau and stay at that level. Just as in diagnosing the syndrome changes are considered permanent after 6 months. If that is true, my new level of pain on a scale from 1-10 is now a 6! My baseline pain/fatigue was my old 4. Basically when I started feeling bad, on a scale from 1-10 I described my pain as a 4. So eventually the 4 became my new 1. Now my level is a 6 (7 years ago that would have been a 10). I am in so much pain and can't seem to concentrate on anything. It is so frustrating!
I hate not being able to do the things that i want to do. I love to work, both in my job and with my house. Now I don't have the streghnth or stamina to do the things that I want to do. Oh well, my only option is to keep going. I can't keep letting it get me. I will be at work tomorrow for the whole day.

Do you ever look back at your life and wonder what all the fuss was about? I do. I can remember crying my eyes out in 6th grade because I didn't make the JV cheerleading squad, and then again in 7th grade. Fast forward to college – I made the cheerleading squad, and it wasn't as great as I had imagined. This blog is for me. Even now, less than four years after I started it, I can read back and see how my perspective has changed. Time changes everything. My life is no exception.

I hope you feel better soon, Cheerleader.
*HUG*
I'm sure I would feel better crying into a cute DJ's shoulder ;)
Sorry to hear of your difficulties. Hopefully you will get to feeling better soon.
