My big toe did not hurt. It just felt weird. I can't explain it. Like it was numb but it was not numb. but maybe like it was on its way to "going numb" ? lol Im sure that does not make sense. It was just a weird feeling, in between numb and not numb.

Then when we all get a new pain or sensation its like...oh no what does this mean, is it getting worse? I hate that feeling. I am trying to learn to just stay calm and remind myself new/different pains and sensations can come and go without it meaning my life is going to end cuz its getting worse. lol
I can understand how you feel when the pain is acting up, its like you dont enjoy doing anything or going anywhere. When the pain is tolerable (there is pain but can function), my gosh, my mind goes wild planning to do this and that, go to this place and that, buy this and that --- but, when the pain is back, all my plans are gone. So, my husband and I take every opportunity to do something meaningful during those "rare tolerable moments", which are far between.
