This Week Has Been Hard...

This week has been really hard. We've been getting things done, but not as much as normal. There is something you don't know about me...something I suppose I should share.

For the past eight years, I have been suffering from a couple of pain disorders. I was initially diagnosed with fibromyalgia, nerve impingement, and slight scoliosis. After more testing it was discovered that I also have rheumatoid arthritis. More recently, MRIs have shown that I have disc degeneration, bulging disks and pinched nerves.

Some days are better than others, but these days I don't have any really good days. I'm not even sure I remember what I feels like to not be in pain. Some days are really horrible and it seems I've gotten stuck with a few of those horrible days in a row.

Because I've been so miserable, I've been sleeping most of the day. When I am awake, I'm propped up in my adjustable bed trying not to focus on pain. My bedroom has been our classroom this week!

Anyway, I will hopefully be back to my version of normal soon and start posting more often again!
