Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue - whatever - is worse than I thought. The ten minute walk yesterday morning had me very ill by midday. It was an awful afternoon/evening feeling exhausted, in pain, and very uncomfortable with a racing heart. Finally I took a tonne of Seroquel to put me out of my misery. Even Ritalin didn't help. I slept well and am feeling a bit better this morning. So now I can't even walk to the beach 5 minutes from my flat. Sigh ... It is a huge hill. Tomorrow I have a physiotherapist appointment followed by food shopping. I hope that doesn't set me off again. I hate this illness. Trying so hard to stay positive. It has been worsening for three months now so I am getting discouraged. It is the fatigue that cripples me the most. I can barely read or even watch TV at times. I get so exhausted I am sensitive to light and sound. This is why I meditate so much. Often it is a struggle to focus but when I get in the zone meditation is my only escape. It must be doing me some good too.
