Since just before Christmas I've been pretty busy IRL, both mentally and physically. I'm no spring chicken and I find my physical strength has been dwindling a lot every year.

Being busy brings with it a lot of stress and sometimes anxiety as well. Both things can aggravate the Fibro to no end.

I have not been able to rest and relax enough to get the pain controlled at all. For the first time since a year ago when I received a prescription for flexeril, I took one last night hoping it would help me sleep. I tend to get really loopy on flexeril and since I care for a disabled individual 24/7, I can't take the chance of an emergency happening and me not being able to function, so I usually just suffer through it.

Well, it didn't work. I didn't get loopy and I tossed and turned all night. Not only that, but I got hit hard with a nasty head and chest cold too. It just never fails, I need rest and there is no rest to be had.

No problem, I'll keep on ticking....someday I might go off! LOL Kaboooooooooooom!

Not looking for any sympathy...just needing to sound off a bit
