Family can be hard. My husband and my girls completely understand, but, I've had people here and there say things like, well, maybe if you got into a good muscle strengthening exercising, you'd feel stronger, and better. I don't know why, but that one drives me crazy.
Um....maybe it's because as I describe the illness, I always use the example of exercising as something a normal person can do, but because of the repeated moves, I can't do them. And now because of many other medical stuff. like PH.

But for some people, they just can't wrap their brains around the idea, that exercise could contribute to extreme weakness.

Can we all shout...ANNooooYYYyyiiinnnngggg

Love Lizzie
