Be careful what you wish for.
 
Not too long ago I posted on here saying I wished I could trade my cognitive problems for physical symptoms...well I guess that wish came true. At least for now lol.

All of a sudden my cognitive symptoms traded off for severe dizziness and a drunk feeling...and this has been going on for an hour now. Not sure which one I prefer more, haha.

Just thought I'd share this for a good laugh.

Be careful what you wish for.

I don't understand any form of tracking symptoms hour by hour. I gave up on such a view of my days long ago.

Here in Idaho, we have a saying, If you don't like the weather, wait 20 minutes and it will likely change.

I need to use that same concept with my symptoms. If I don't, I will end up getting wrapped up in anxiety or frustration.

I'm guilty of saying "I wish I had broken my arm or my leg, because at least that is an injury that can be seen and validated by an X-ray"...

My symptoms change more than the weather here in Connecticut lol...and with the weather changing, it seems to be exacerbating my symptoms to an intolerable degree...headaches are much worse to the point that I have zero motivation to do anything...everything is now a task, right down to getting out of bed in the morning....

The only thing that keeps me going, is hoping that a more tolerable onset of symptoms will present...or I'll wake up one morning and this will all be just a bad memory....
