Today is a rough one
I’m trying SO hard to manage my severe chronic pain today but nothing is working. It’s like my whole body just decided to fire up every painful issue today at one time. The worst of it is the severe nerve pain in my face, really wish that would chill out today. Several joints have already dislocated and I haven’t even gotten up yet, so that certainly doesn’t bode well for the rest of the day.
I hate being like this, not only cause it hurts but because it makes me so grouchy and angry. I also don’t like having to stay in bed, where I’m currently stuck
I’m glad a new breeding season just started so I can throw myself into pony breeding while I rewatch my favorite show. I’d love if you’d show me your favorite horses too, I love seeing all your pretty pixel ponies!

I feel you on the pain today, stuck today too! Definitely glad it’s breeding season. You’ve already seen my pretties so far

@Fgbchorses2 my inflammatory arthritis decided my body being under stress from pain equals flare up time since I posted this. The worst! Sorry you’re going through it too, my friend

At least there are good distractions!

It rained a lot this morning and really flared up my old brachial plexus injury and made my trigeminal neuralgia do some nice spicy nonsense too.

Then my body decided it's been 12 weeks, time for a period (I have endometriosis and cramps from that are monstrous).

I really wish it had a better way to tell me besides sudden cramps. Maybe a smartphone notification. =(( :))

You're in my thoughts, fellow chronic pain friends. I hope yours eases soon! I'm off work tomorrow so I can let my body have the rest it needs. I-)

@silverborn I’ve got trigeminal neuralgia too, it’s the worst. I also have occipital neuralgia- both just like to play off each other. It’s obnoxious. I had type 2 constant pain) TN for years and then it switched to type 1 thanks to meds and acupuncture. More manageable now but I still have to take scary amount of otc pain meds to survive it. Don’t wish it on anyone. I hope yours chills out soon and leaves you alone, and that you get some good rest tomorrow

I feel your pain (pun intended). Last night was AWFUL for me. I could not sleep or get comfortable because my hips/legs and lower back were in so much pain. I have consistent issues with pain when I sleep which absolutely sucks. My doctor said for my hips/legs its most likely bursitis (Trochanteric Bursitis) but there isn't anything I can do for it. Pillow between the legs doesn't help and sometimes makes it worse. Ibuprofen doesn't help most the time. I just have to lay there and hurt. My body is so sore today from hurting all night :'( I am going to try to start losing some weight (if I can keep myself motivated through the crippling depression) and see if that helps

I completely understand you, I have endo, but mine is different than most, as I feel the pain, exhaustion, bloating, etc. every single day, regardless of menstruation status. It effects my lower abdomen, whole back, shoulders, and hips, but also completely wears me out. Ibuprofen doesn’t help mine either.
I can’t lift as much weight like I used to, and I’ve even gained about 10 lbs simply from not having as much energy and generally not feeling well.
I’m very glad we have this game that we can use as a much needed distraction. I’m prepping for my second surgery right now, should be performed in about 2 months I believe.

It’s nice to have companions that understand to keep us company :)
I’m so sorry that everything seems to want to flare up at the same time for you
