WOW! Last night was the first night in THREE years that I went to bed without taking the meds! AWESOME! No spasms! No volleyball in my ass killing me so I can't lay down, moving and not worrying that I was going to cramp up and feel like cutting my leg off! WOW! I may not have slept all night but I was NOT in so much pain that I can't deal!
I am tired...but feel GOOD!!!! I am afraid that the pain will come back, but I am SO excited!!! Maybe this is behind me now! This morning I had to celebrate with a little happy dance! No pain dance! Look at me I can walk and move PAINFREE! OHMYGAWD!
So tonight I sat and had gratitude...and worked on my purple combo shawl...It is working up fast and lacey! Really kinda fun! OH and some thing new to watch...2nd season of Joan of Arcadia! YEAH!
That is wonderful to hear that you were helped. You seem like such a cheerful upbeat person, it's hard to see that you have had chronic pain.

Alexia!!!
What a nice compliment! Here I thought people could see I was grumpy! Glad to know I was still cheerful! It is a hard road with chronic pain and I worked hard to be happy in the midst of it!
Tonight, against the person telling me the wonderful secret to painfree, I went to belly dance class and although I didn't do the front moves...I am back to being sore! BUT I am doing those exercises she told me to do and it is easing up AND no pain down my leg so I am SO hopeful!
So glad to have depended on the kindness of a stranger! It is really awesome that she shared this information with me! I feel SO much better!
