Another day, another appointment!

This was rheumatology, to help confirm that it's 'just' fibro and excessive stiffness from untreated hypermobility, which he did!
I can start with rehab/physio/pain management

Bonus, hospital is an hour on the bus, loads of reading done 😂

Some mornings I wake up and parts of my body have chosen violence. Today it's my eyes. I would worry, but y'know, it happens often. Rather like I have the phrase "my usual quota of dizzy spells" and this is something my GP understands as being a thing.

Sometimes self-care is just saying, “My back fucking hurts, bro,” and lying down without apology. 💅

#ChronicPainLife is realizing that having -scale- for your migraines is patently -not normal- & yet not only having one but having friends who understand exactly what you mean... FML It's day 3, ranking is "mild"... do with that what you will.

Today is one of those ”I have to go (do a thing) because I cancelled it last week but I just cancelled it again because I still have a migraine from last week” days. Today’s issue? It rained and now my head is about to split. How am I supposed to control the weather? 😡⛈️ 🫩#ChronicPainLife

straining a muscle in your abdomen, like between the V of your ribs is AWFUL! Laughing hurts, sneezing hurts, coughing hurts... add that to my chronic knee pain, arthritis, and slight migraine and it ALL hurts.

I'm going to go play some more SWTOR.

Chronic pain is being woken up at 3:30 a.m because your back and leg are on fire. #chronicpainlife #chronicpainsky #chronicillness

No one asked, but I like to track weather for many reasons, but one important one is I like having the knowledge that I woke up in pain not because I did too much, but because the pressure of the air is literally squeezing me.
Just gotta know who’s responsible for it🥴

Went for a slow walk today.
At first — pain.
Halfway — breath, softness, quiet relief.
Sometimes, your body just needs you to show up.

Waking up like a hundred-year-old:
dull back pain, creaky joints, bargaining with gravity.
Breathing too deep feels risky.
Life tip: move like you’re made of glass.

Woke up pain-free today.
No heaviness, no noise in the bones.
Just breathing, smiling, being.
Feels like a private holiday no one else knows about.

Used to walk 20 km for fun. Now 300 meters and my back wants to sue.
Funny how life quietly rewrites itself while you’re busy pretending it’s fine.

Tried acupuncture, magnets, monks, lasers. Pain said “aww.”
I’m not asking for advice. I’m documenting the sitcom.

Good morning = my back hurts slightly less than usual. At this point, I take it as a win. 🫖

Woke up haunted… by my to-do list.
Pain's tagging along today, but we're still showing up—haunted doll energy activated.
Let’s see what magic we can make.

Bad pain day. If anyone needs me I’ll be over here eating a frankly obscene quantity of Carr’s Cheese Melts.

This week's "cerdded twp, am ein iechyd twp" (stupid walk, for our stupid health) is less pretty

The rugby is on so we've headed South east away from the city, towards the bay. The bay is too far though, so it's the pub in the Novotel instead! 😂
