Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Hi ... At one point I went through the same thing. I'd go weeks feeling great and then something would happen that would give me that little scare... like not being able to even bend over without falling or not being able to pick something up that I had been doing for a month or so. The sad part is I still go through those bouts. I'm not sure, but maybe it's our bodies telling us that it needs a rest and that it's not ready for full steam ahead. Your scrubbing the pot and your arm got like jello is all to familiar to me. I get that a lot and it's the one thing that drives me crazy the most. If my legs get like that, which they do, I can sit down. But, if my arms get tired I can't do anything else but sit and stare out the window. I've noticed that if I really get into something that requires muscle power my arms turn to mush. I get the feeling I've asked to much of them and boy, they stay weak for hours upon hours..... I know with you it's much different because you just can't stop what you're doing and sit and rest.... I can and so far it's the only saving grace I have. After a few days resting I'm back to doing all that I can. My guess is your labs will be normal. I know you already realize that this disease takes time and patients and it's very hard at times to really understand it....I know it is for me at times. Just when you think you have all your ducks in a row something happens. Hang in there and it will get better but until then soak that pot until the next morning and save that strength.... Take care, Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
