I don't think I feel physical pain anymore. Honestly. It's a bit of an issue. I just spent a good 5 minutes scratching my lower back with my nails that I have let grow out, yes there is blood, but I don't...of my right hand.... NOTHING! A few tingles, but nothing!!! ok nevermind definite pain in the feet...but beyond that??? I think anything below the waist- painage. Above the waist- NOTHING. Weird

I got approved for the HUMIRA Patient Assitance Program where Abbott sends me the medication directly, and for free!! Having it delivered  to my door is awesome cause I don't have to drag my tired butt ...layer up on layer I kinda felt like I was in some quirky scientist's lab in a movie where they are pulling things out of dry ice with biohazard suits on. At least it made HUMIRA fun for a minute :)

Well, the Lessiemobile is now back, with two replaced rear break pads, it has now passed for another year, so C came home early last night via the garage. She's back out to work today, as per "normal". Me, I continued all day without going off to bed yesterday, so some bonus. As for today, I'm knackered, but out of bed less than half an hour ago.

Today's entry brought to you by mucho meme-ness. First, there will be the anti-hate meme; third is a meme for YOU to fill out so I can know a bunch of random things about you. Both of these were snurched...it out for you?   Well, I told trademybike that I'd try to send another chapter away to be reviewed by her amazing editing skills, so I'd better go attempt to make good on that one. G'night, kiddos

Just finished my Accounting 2 test, now I'm wasting a little time before I have to go to work study. Tonight I have my meeting. I don't think I did great on the test, but I don't think I failed it either...find out something then, if not before. Well, that's enough yakking for now. It's time to head over to the Student Center and prepare myself for a couple of hours of scanning non-stop. Yeehaw, Fun Fun!

I'm commonly asked three questions about fibromyalgia, so I thought I'd offer them here. 1) What is it? 2) How long have you had it? 3) What can you do about it? Since there's more medical insight into this than there has been, I thought I'd answer both. What is it? In short: things that shouldn't hurt, do. Longer answer: it's, among other things, a change in the perception of pain. Touch that...

Today has been a busy day, C has had the landlord around (put back from last week when ill), and dropped the car to the garage around the corner, for MoT. It''s needing the back brakes replaced, so it's...off to work after lunch on the bus - although I almost forgot about Kneesworth Street being closed, and the bus on diversion! I'm okay this week, but very tired right now - and for the last few days

I haven't felt this physically rotten in quite a while, but the accumulated slippages in beige food discipline over the last however long have really caught up with me now. Some of it could be the weather...most of this up. Eventually. It's a reminder of how much it does help. Also on the bright side I am quite quite confident that this is not just (!) depression, although stress wouldn't have helped

So I don't know if I posted this but Alex, hereafter known as "That Goddamn dog" did in fact break my leg. Not badly, just a little hairline fracture in the fibia... what my Dr referred to as "the crumple... not deadly. It's so so gross though. Anyone gotten rid of one of these? I'm supposed to be taking asprin but I keep forgetting, so I'll start back on that. Heat? Cold? What works? I cannot cope.

My grandfather came through his surgery with flying colours. What should have been a 4-5 hour procedure took only 2. He only had to take about 5 units of blood, and he was pretty cognizant (though in...midnight last night, so I think it's time for some Battlestar and a very early evening. Once again, I thank you all for your kind words and good thoughts. They were much appreciated all around
