Living. Crps - el bizarro disease. I am doing well with stim. Work easier, but i still get TIRED!!! The fatigue of neuropathic pain and insomnia - it's different!! Something hard to explain to normal folks. I've got a good job so i tell my wife pleaaase hire some help - i can't so the chores like before. Im either working out or passing out - doing laundry - nope. No thanks.
Got a carbon fiber upright bike. Best u can get in that configuration. Rode up old la Honda in the sf bay peninsula in 26:30!!! It's a good time. Nobody passed me. I passed like 6 people. Had i been out early with the hardcore set i woulda been crushed. Trying to cross train swim 2x hike2x bike2x per week. Hiked like 7 miles fast last week - that hurts.
Causes friction at home. I tell my wife Paxil Zoloft blah blah doesn't do anything. Let me work. Let me workout. Let me play with kids. Get help with chores. I am NOT LAZY!!!!!!!
I don't really fit in anywhere - super healthy for a "pain patient" but I'm young and very determined. That's why. First sniper lesson on Monday unless i get killed at work tomorrow.
Hope y'all are doin ok.
