Hi, I'm just checking in to see if there are any new posts.
Also, I wanted to report that I started off the day with back spasms (collapsed disk) and shoulder pain (any Dx you want to give it), it has subsided a little as the day went on. No idea why, but i can't complain about it.

How are other people doing?
Is anyone checking in?

Hi Coyote,

Sorry to hear about your pains today. I do hope that your spasms subside and that your shoulder feels better. (((((hugs)))))

I'm doing OK I guess. It's hard to judge how I feel physically today because I am stressed to the max (having dinner with my mother tonight, haven't seen her in a long time because of various reasons but she is moving out of state so I figured I can suck it up and have one dinner with her, and my husband will be there and it's a public place so hopefully she will be civilized)....

How is everything going at work? Have you been able to get any accomodations yet? Don't forget that every US state has something called the office of disability advocates (or something similar). Their job is to help people get accomodations and be treated fairly. I forgot to mention that the other day when you discussed your flares that are caused by your job.

I hope you have a good day, and I hope anyone else who is reading this thread is having a good day too

Hi ya'll! Coyote, I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. Is this what's causing your fibro flare, or is it the other way around? Either way, it can't be much fun. If only we could handle our problems one at a time!

Wittesea, I wanted to say I'm sorry that you're mother's moving so far away, but then from the way it sounds maybe congratulations are in order? I hope that you're having a good day as well, and every one else out there...

Wittesea, I hope you all survived the dinner ok.
I'm feeling a bit better than last week.
Idealist, I guess it works both ways around, stress causing flare, flare causing stress.................

Well today, let's see. Both my hands have been hurting a lot. And my TMJ is really acting up! Hurts.

My TMJ is acting up, also, along with neck pain (Arnold Chiari malformation, 3 fused vertebrae), wrists hurt, lower back, and my Plantar's Fibromas are hurting a lot, also.

What hurts???
