wish abled people would understand fluctuating disabilities more. i told my boss my knee was better today than friday and she's like "I'm glad it's slowly getting better" but it's not Getting Better, it's just having a good day (and tbh it's worse now than it was when I said that) and tomorrow it'll probably be unable to bear my weight again. like. stop thinking of these things as a straight line progression because they're not and I'm tired to having to explain every bad day like it's some bigass new problem when it's just. the nature of these things

Last Nerve
Any advise for alleviating nerve pain would be greatly appreciated. It's been a tough week.

I don’t know if trapping nerves often is something Fibro Sufferers have to deal with or if it’s completely unrelated and I am just unlucky, but I do trap a nerve in my shoulder a lot. It’s in my left shoulder at the back, under the shoulder blade. I don’t know how it’s happened, there was nothing wrong when I woke on Tuesday, but then throughout the day the pain started and then it just started.…

my rheumatologist had me stop ibuprofen completely, after eating it daily for over a decade to survive. instead, she put me on sulindac. no nsaids allowed while taking it, so until it kicks in, no pain relief. at all.
obviously this killed me deader than dog doo, but i’ve been crawling out of my grave for two weeks. and, my god, it kind of…works?
i just vacuumed and no one breathing down my neck for inspections. and then cleaned out the vacuum. i became the vacuum cleaner. put up pictures for the first time since 2012. fixed stuff.
my everything still hurts but the howling void of just constant misery has dimmed down to like, a single annoying neighbor telling me how to do something (wrong) while i do it.
also my acid reflux that had me choking on barf at night has disappeared completely. if this keeps up i might get to quit a med for a change.

pinched nerve is SO unfair and annoying because? Great. half my wrist/hand is numb and i can't feel anything. EXCEPT for when i move wrong and it feels like i'm being stabbed. that's my one little treat. otherwise no sensation. ??????????

So I'm running on twice the normal amount of painkillers. Half of my face is still in pain, albeit less so than before. The other half is partially numb. Which is true for the rest of my body it seems. I'm trying to eat a banana and it's weird as fuck ✌🏻

i am wary of things that brand themselves as "this is what's most natural for the human body", bc i have what i'm branding Disabled Cynicism, aka a general sense of doubt brought on by the profound knowledge that my body quite regularly fucks things up without any interference from me and probably can't be trusted to know what's best for it. i'm thinking 'barefoot shoes' and similar. "your body does X naturally, why interfere with that" well my hip also naturally pops itself out of the socket for funsies and my immune system tries to kill itself when i eat bread but that doesn't mean those are good things

i will say the pain scale with the descriptions is life-changing; it’s just that I frequently forget to refer to it when assigning my pain a number. going around thinking, “why am I complaining about this 3-4 level pain when i used to average around 7 daily” and then looking at the scale and seeing, “ok, this is closer to 5-6 level, definitionally” works wonders to reorient your perspective. (also, 3-4 isn’t particularly fun to cope with on a regular basis either)

one thing about constant low-level pain is that it won't ruin everything but it will make you utterly miserable and want to complain all the time
