Oh my god sleep was off the fucking rails. Part of it was just waking up every 5 minutes. Part was an overactive brain. I was aware of a solid 40 wake ups by 3am. Brutal. Pain feels fairly normal in the morning, partly due to the messed up sleep. I think it will get better as the days goes on. The fibro is good. I need to wake up. I sat down at my computer to register for a video game beta test. I wasn’t sure if I would even be able to play it at all, but I really wanted to check it out. An hour and a half later, I realized I hadn’t eaten or showered. I played past the whole tutorial and then some. I feel like I’m dancing when I move around my apartment. Moving is so easy compared to normal. Taking advantage and doing laundry. I told myself last night that if I feel good today, I’ll treat myself by going out to dinner for chow fun. I played that game right through lunch and missed out on that one! I’ll have another think about it for dinner. Just did a short walk. That was really fucking hard. Partly because I haven’t been able to move for 3 months, partly I think was the fibromyalgia. Pain didn’t seem bad, but I felt that heavy drag and fog from the fibro flare up that is still lingering. Every day time walk I’ve done in the last 3 months has fucked me up for the rest of the day. Ice pack isn’t really doing anything today, and I think that’s a good thing. The pain relief is already there.Been trying to play games and it’s not going as well as this morning. That early walk always fucks me now. Pain level is high. Need to chill out for a bit. Dinner out isn’t sounding good. I know in the back of my head this won’t last more than 2 or 3 days anyway. I want to enjoy whatever I get while I have it. It’s going to be so oppressive when the injections wear off. It always is. I pushed it fairly hard today. Most of my time was at my desk. I wouldn’t have been able to do this without the injections, but the pain is pretty decent. I know I spent too much time upright. The last time I got these injections, I was walking 10 miles for those days. Things have been so different since Christmas, so who the fuck knows anymore. If I didn’t push it today, I probably would have had a better tomorrow. I might have sold myself out for today.
