Woke up early AGAIN. I can’t get past these early wake ups. All I want is to catch up on sleep, and I can’t get it. I feel a lot of aftershocks today still. I think today could be a decent day though. I have a couple errands to do, so hopefully those don’t mess me up. Still a slow start, which is fine. That fibromyalgia flare from 2 days ago really rang my bell. I need time to forget those days.
Dragged my ass to the pharmacy to drop off prescriptions. The new doctor wasn’t in their automated system yet, so I got paper scripts. Yesterday was her first day. Went to Aldi and got some gluten free and dairy free foods. It’s quite hard to buy processed foods without one of those in it. I used to do a whole food, plant based diet, which was gluten/dairy free by default. It was literally 95% vegetables, fruits, and beans. Really healthy diet, but very difficult to sustain. It was a big catalyst for me coming back from my last spine surgery. I’ve been writing a blog post about that experience. That diet hasn’t done anything for me this time around though. I need to get this mechanical spine problem fixed first. There is nothing to recover and heal from right now.
Short walk. First one of those in about 4 days. Felt pretty decent. Back to the pharmacy for the prescription pickup. This is the most activity I’ve had in a little while. I’m glad to be moving again. Glad to get out of the house. Glad to have lower fibro levels. Please last!
