'sall good!

So - here I am, a year later and guess what! I'm doin' great! I'm back to work full time (and then some). I have a fairly clean house, the laundry is reasonably done, the yard's a mess but what do you expect on 3 1/2 acres?

So - no, I'm still not 100%. BUT I'm good! I'm happy! Some days are harder than others but for the most part, I've still got a life and that's cool with me.

I'm still committed to the pregnenolone, L-Tyrosine and Emergen-C. 2 days without any of these and I'm toast...I notice the difference and it's not good. The niacin started to cause some fatigue so I don't take it daily - I add it when I feel I need it (maybe once a week) - don't know how to explain that other than to say I recognize a bit of fatigue and I take 1000mgs (with the folic acid & aspirin). It does help when I'm getting sluggish, but isn't a daily staple anymore.

Exercise - stretching...these are good things! I even load hay and build fences from time to time. Gotta love that!

Still gotta watch for days when I'm running slow...yes, I'm still sick! I'm taking the time to rest then and my guilt over that is pretty much gone...it is what it is and I'm just thrilled to be able to have a life at all - so I'll take a day or two here and there without complaint!

Well, at least not complaints about fibro!

Flaky Blogger!

Ha ha! Seriously - it's been MONTHS since I've been on - we don't have internet out here in the sticks! BUT - I'm doing pretty good on my routine. Not much has changed. I'm back on Pregnenalone/DHEA combo...straight DHEA just didn't do it for me. I've also added CLA - not sure it does much either but I'll run through the bottle before making too strong of a judgement.

I also started Nekken magnetic therapy last week. Oh man does that help. It's expensive - and it's a pyramid type deal (which I hate) but it really is helping with pain immensely.

I can't say I'm 100% and I do over-do often...which leads me to still want to find other things that work. I am happy that I've made progress - I'm out of bed and living a semi-normal life, which is huge improvement over a year ago! I'll keep researching!!!
