Hello All! I am going through a spout of good days and I am taking advantage of them as much as I can but people don't see that I'm still in pain even though I shockingly played badminton. I' paying for my playing and all my cleaning now. My parents seem to think just cause I can do a flight of stairs that I am all better and it's not true. I used to walk with a cane and now for over a week I've been not using it. I began a new medication and increased dosage on others and I believe that changed it a ton. Also I have began with protein powder to build up some muscle as most deteriorated when I went through my time in bed. I hate that this illness is so invisible that people think I'm doing so much better that it's cured but the pain is still there. People don't seem to understand fibro, hell even doctors don't seem to.
I am glad you are doing some better take it slow and dont worry about what people think.
hi. i am glad that you were able to do some fun stuff and also the cleaning.. my husband understands my joy even about the cleaning . lol.. perhaps when people see you do some stuff you can tell them that you are in a remission but you dont know how long it will last and that you are excited about doing some stuff. For me , one of my motto's is,"I do what i can when i can and when i cant , i dont."
all the best your way

I am glad you are doing better right now. You are so right, it is very hard for others to understand what we go through. For me, I try not to surround myself with excessively negative people. Like Suzie said I do what I can (well sometimes I overdo it) when I can. I am working on not feeling guilty when I can't but I am making progress with this. I hope you continue to have good days. Hugs.
