Each Day Already is a Challenge
A Texas Sunrise

Sunrise on Surfside Beach, Texas

A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.

This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.




Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.

I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.

For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

My pain and welcome to it.

I was so excited yesterday when I learned my illness had turned into bronchitis. Strange, I know. But there are medications for bronchitis!

The prescription I received for antibiotics is in the same family as one that has caused me problems before. The last time I took that med, I was sick - vomiting - for 3 days.

Supposedly, this med, although in the same family, has been "improved" and changed so it doesn't cause nausea.

Well...it didn't work that way on me. I've been sick since I started taking it.

I threw up last night, then kept a heating pad on my mid-section to help with the pain. Today I've already napped once. Now I'm heading back to bed.

Yes, I made a call to the doc's office requesting a different antibiotic.
