Thanks tranquility. Well, there were many little things that added to this flare, I'm remembering. And it's that I couldn't keep it all in my mind that help lead to my being overwhelmed. But I'm not sure I could have totally prevented this flare and I'm not going to dunn myself as though it was my "fault" or anything. It just happens sometimes.

I'm still adjusting to my limitations... but reality sets in quite quickly with pain flares. I had to totally drop all my plans for today, and possibly tomorrow's too. I have to rest. It's not easy to rest in this situation, as the pain interferes plus I have to war against the anxiety of not getting things done, and wondering if I allowed enough time to get everything done on "time"... like ...I need to plan / schedule my pain flares??? Of course I can't.

I didn't even get to the pharmacy and fill the script the ER doc gave me. Just too much to get done. I must tomorrow do that one thing if nothing else(but of course that 'one' thing involves getting dressed, driving, parking, walking, waiting, and returning.

I need sleep. Only slept 1 hour last night. I did nap after PT and T today, for 2 hours or so?
