Body, behave
Having a real snarky flareup since last month that won't stop. Starts
off like a sinus infection with migraines and feeling fatigued like
having a constant flu, but it's not bacterial or viral in nature ( at
least to the point of being contagious to others ). Sore throat, "raw"
feeling tongue and inner mouth with ulcerations. One moment nasal drip
choking me, the next so stuffy I can't breath except through mouth and
my Sjögren's makes it worse because I dry out so easy. Weak body and
balance disturbances leave me running into walls/door frames and random
objects and bumping things because I feel detached from my body when its
this bad. Riding my personal roller coaster dizzily swaying about.
Everything hurts, esp lower back/hips. Swelling in legs and puffy small
joints, sore glands. So bad the other day I had to resort to using cane
and I *hate* doing that. It starts to let up a little for a few days so I
try to get things done that I couldn't do while I was worse off and
being mindful not to overdo. I thought I had kicked it, but then it
comes back strong. Body can't decide if insomnia or hypersomnia is
better. This is the worst I have ever been since I got Journey and he is
beside himself, not sure how to respond. He's been extra pushy and
bothersome, acting out repeatedly. Still trying to fine tune his
responses and how fast he moves ( normal, he's still learning ), he gets
a little carried away when he is particularly worried or senses I am
not doing well, which has been worse the past week or so. Haven't gotten
as much done as I have wanted on account of being sick and lacking the
coherency and energy to do most of it. Don't mind me while I blob about.
