Unimaginable pain.
> Work up late, but pleasant. Matt Maher on iPhone. Rushed to work. 6
> min. Late. Felt fine.
> 10 pm, agony. Hurt from finger tips to toes. Forgot to take meds. Took
> Tramadol and Nuvigil. 11 am, still bad pain. Took Aleve.
> Forgot to put chair high till now. Can't get up, can't sit down w/o
> difficulty. Pain sharp in lumbar. Ache in hands, acute in knees
> (constant, even when not in motion), crazy pain in thighs from hips to
> knees. Can't walk. Stride is short, hobbled. Funny looks in hallway.
> Slouching in chair; too much pain to sit straight. Everyone must think
> I'm lazy and or sleeping.
> I look a mess. Tee and Jeans. Didn't wash my hair. Forgot bobby pins.
> Bad hair day.
> Pain everywhere even now. Taking another Tramadol at 12. Leave work at
> 12:30. Dentist appt at 1. Looking forward to being able to lie down,
> even if it's a dental exam chair.
> Wisdom teeth hurt too. (Unrelated to other pain.) Hurts to talk, suck on straws.
> Pain is everywhere. I can't even just list fingers, wrists, elbows,
> shoulders, because everything in between hurts too. It's like
> connect-the-dots but torture.

Good mental clarity today. Early meds, had shower. Very little
> afternoon fatigue. Had energy to do some shopping and even cook
> dinner. (but it was very late and I was very hungry and over ate.)

No pain meds since afternoon. Although I noticed I had a really hard
> time getting from the couch at 10 after cooking dinner and watching an
> hour of tv, but no pain getting up from computer chair after 90
> minutes of WHO. maybe because it's lower? I've always had trouble with
> my cars. First the Civic now the 'yota. But not with Penelope (the
> black 'yota). Hmm. I think I'm on to something. I'll have to try to
> keep my desk chair at work high and see if I notice pain that way. I
> do notice the more time I spend in my feet, the greater severity of
> pain/stiffness/locking up.
>
> Also, wore flats past two days. No knee pain. I'll wear chanclas
> tomorrow and see if the pain returns. If so, I'll get rid of them all.
>
> Need podi appt about bunions. To shy. Know my arch/ankle aesthetic is
> from being obese. It ain't pretty.
>
> Also, I'm wide awake. Shouldn't have doubled on WHO.
