That is something I find to be more important than anything else in dealing with any type of chronic pain. Ya gotta know your limits!!!!!!

Yes, I find this to be especially true. If I overdo it one day, I will pay for three days. Conservation of energy. I know this, but I still have not quite mastered it.

Mere, I don't know if any of us ever will master it!!!!!!!! We tend to get involved in what we are doing, be it kids, gardens, cleaning, whatever; and all of a sudden, "ooopsies", there it went

I seem to be fine while I am doing things, like walking, cleaning etc, it is after I stop that I feel the pain and it can get days to get over it.

Default Resting and Bedtime...

That's when my pain attacks the most...It must "go with the territory".

Perhaps we can ignore the pain more while we're busy and occupied with something pleasant. I know that is the only way I can get my chores & yardwork done.

The blessing comes when you have a GOOD day (or morning), then I always seem to go 'overboard"! Next comes the misery for being so foolish.

Wishing CURES for EVERYONE in the near future.
