Roller Coaster Ride

One day I'm okay...

and the next I'm totally not okay.

One day the pain is just there, sort of in the background...

and the next day the pain is at the forefront, flaring, and screaming at me from every direction.

One day I'm a normal, non-crazed-emotional woman...

and the next day it's like I've lost my mind completely and I'm an emotional wreck.

One day I feel like I have it all together...

and the next day I feel like I'm falling apart.

One month I'm healthy...

and the next month I'm so sick and having such a bad flare-up that I can barely function.

Will the roller coaster ever stop and let me off............?????

You know that was the hardest part of having fibro for me, early in my experience. I'd have flareups, and suffer mightily, and then I'd start to feel pretty good - not quite normal but functional, at least. I'd allow myself to start to feel hopeful -- and then I'd collapse in the grocery store. Seriously - one time I had to call the ex because I simply could not move any more. I sat in the cafe part of the store, weeping, waiting for him. It sucked.

It still sucks. Hang in there, please.

Hang in there....I've had days where I feel as if I have lost all hope because of my Lupus~ But God is there in the middle of it all and knew what would happen ....So He will give you the grace to get through! Praying for you!
