Pete,
You are truly awesome with your words of wisdom. Every time I post on this board I feel like I say the same thing. Your posts are dead on and I really am glad that they are. Everyone here is awesome, that's why I pray for all of you everyday.
Today, because of this board, I got uo off the couch and went shopping with my husband and it was a rainy miserable day. My leg was "talking" to me, but I wouldn't listen. I know it's going to be rough night tonight, but it was all worth it because I spent the day all alone with my sweetie and those are far and few between because of RSD, kids and basically life.
Every time I get my butt up and do something that I couldn't do a year ago, it's a victory. I know that by Tuesday, I will be down again, but maybe not. The power of positive thinking is ominous when it comes to the monster that we call RSD.
