#chronicconfessions
I hide while shopping to avoid conversations.... 🤔🤐
Why❓❓❓❓❓❓❓
Being able to throw on some clothing, brush my hair, and drive to the store doesn't equate to having the mental energy to carry on a conversation.
Living with #chronicpain means always thinking about my body and pain level, even while shopping.... with my mind filled with thoughts of calculating how much farther I can walk without having to spend the rest of the day in bed, wondering if I'm pushing too far or not far enough, and panicking when I feel pain creeping up my spine, the last thing I want to do is to discuss life or pretend that everything is okay in passing.... 🙊 I don't hide to be rude, I do it in order to get what needs to be done as quickly and efficiently as possible. 👉👉👉Have you hidden from someone you know while shopping?👇👇👇 Have you ever been caught?👇👇👇

Don't you love when you actually feel your body healing?
Tomorrow ends #week2 out of 6 weeks of #bedrest for my #brokenribs 🗓 During this time I've been reducing the inflammation with ice, rest, #mmj, and #pemftherapy 🔵 The inflammation around my #ribcage has reduced to the point that I can clearly feel and pinpoint five points of injury of various degrees. Doc was right, it's going to be a long recovery process ⏳ This process is much like when I first began experiencing #chronicpain relief from #fibromyalgia #psoriaticarthritis #psoriasis #degenerativediscdisease #adhesions and #coccydynia with #pemf therapy in 2017. With each passing week and month I'd discover an area of long term pain no longer being a problem. It was amazing and so is the process of healing my ribs.
👉 If you'd like to learn more about pemf therapy with my favorite at home pain relief device #oskapulse , I invite you to visit my #blog WWW.THEDISABLEDDIVABLOG.COM (see link in bio for specific links regarding pemf treatments). 💵 Ready to try this #drugfree #painrelief device?

"Knowing what's wrong gives us a fighting🥊 chance. Going undiagnosed leaves us lost at sea." 🌊
Ignoring patients and their pain when it's not easily answered by a few simple tests is dangerous. Imagine if I had continued to push my body and not pushed for an answer 2 weeks ago. So much could have gone wrong had I not found out that my ribs were broken. 🥊🌊🥊🌊 It's not that we want something wrong with us, but that we need to know what we are dealing with. Was I thrilled to be told my ribs were broken? No, but receiving that answer made it possible to create a plan. I know, broken ribs aren't the same as an incurable chronic illness, but I was just as happy to receive those diagnoses. Why? Because they made sense of my pain and eventually I learned how to make living with them less painful. 🥊🌊🥊👉👉👉 At this moment in time, do you feel like you have a fighting chance or do you feel lost at sea? 👇👇👇
