Jan 15

1228a still wide awake. Brain hurts but not slowing down. Light sensitivity. Took Excedrin migraine. Night meds taken plus extra C, Echinacea, & zinc.

The added stress on my brain from the neuro testing last week really did a number on my immune system and overall health. I knew I’d be down for days from pure exhaustion but I didn’t consider how it would affect me physically. Ended up sick like my husband. I’m praying its not Covid…feels more like a bad case of the flu.

Still waiting for results of Joe’s covid test. Quarantining stinks but then again I haven’t had much gumption this week either. It’s hard enough fighting to recover from LS let alone top it with flu like symptoms and a sick hubby. Yuck! This too shall pass.

 

it’s hard…extremely hard…especially when you’re in midst of it. Reminding myself…

 

Psalm 73:26-28

My flesh and my heart faileth:

but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. 

For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. 

But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

 

I haven’t felt much like Bible study this week either being frankly honest but I have kept up with my Bible reading & devotional app.

Read Genesis 46-50 & Psalm 119:25.

 

Need to work on adding next Scripture journal to blog. Have it partially finished. Maybe I’ll have energy to work on it tomorrow.

 

Chilling burning sensation in between shoulder in back radiating thru shoulder blades to mid back region. Cramping in let abdomen center chest area…hurts painfully.

 

Diffusing thieves in room to disinfect the air.

 

800a woke to bad headache. Muscles twitching randomly thru body. Eyes sensitive to light. Entire body stiff and achy. Sinuses congested with slight bloody nose. Taking migraine rx to ease head pain. Chilling burning sensation that starts at base of neck travels down spine to mid back.

 

1220p Received call that Joe tested positive for Covid. Whole family must quarantine for 14 days. Ugh! I have to go get tested now.

100 something feels weird in my eye. I take my glasses off to discover the nose piece fell off my glasses. Ugh.

1000p just spent half hour looking for my glasses repair kit (Jordon was helping me stay on target). He found $10 in one of my old wallets. Cool! Dezirae comes to see what we were doing only to remind me that I had one in my purse. Screws were too big. Ugh! Now I’m flat exhausted.

Getting bouts of nauceousness.

1120 drinking hot chammomile tea in hopes it’ll help me sleep tonight. Taking 2nd dose of C, Echinacea, & zinc. Tylenol sinus for the sinus headache & night meds.

1145 whew I slept a long time. Must of needed it.

Woke to feeling like my arms and hands were about to explode. Burning stinging sensation thru body. Head hurts. Woke from strange dreams …

100 a friend dropped off a large pot of wedding meatball soup. It’s so delicious!

Low back & rt hip is throbbing like an infected toothache!!! It’s hard to move.

Chronic back pain

630 asked family if they wanted brownies. Joe told me I wasn’t cooking bc I needed to rest. Asked Jordon to make some cookies.

930 applied pain patch to lower back.

1100 patch area starting to burn some. Not sure if that’s supposed to happen or not.

1130 sat to use restroom and lower back snap crackles and popped! It hurt but I am able to move little better. Lower rt back & but area throb intensely. Why does it have to hurt so much!

I’m not taking it anymore. I’m going to bed. Maybe my body will wake in better mood and less pain tomorrow.

Ate on the soup all day and still have a lot left. It was big help as I was in no shape to cook at all today.

I hurt so bad I can’t even lay on my back in bed!! Attempting to lay on stomach.

Took pm rxs, zinc 50mg , C 2k mg, Tylenol sinus.
