The days just keep adding up......
My RA reared its ugly head last night. In a big way!! My left hand became extremely sore. I was unable to pick up most things. I think it was a little swollen also. Then my right hip/leg/back got so inflamed I could barely walk. Sheesh. I was grateful when I found a comfy position to sleep in. Took a while. Gotten better today as time went on. I really took it easy.
Pretty sure my hands are RA related. My right upper arm is either RA or something with my rotator cuff. To my knowledge I never injured my arm. My back is most likely not RA or by now it is partly RA. I have had back pain for more years than I can count. At no time did any doctor ever do an xray of my back. They threw pills at me that did no good. I saw a chiropractor off and on and it sometimes worked. Last time I got worse and never went back.
I finally saw an acupuncturist. She actually took an xray of my back. Ta-da! The lower end of my spine curved. No wonder I hurt. MAYBE if I was checked years ago something could have been done. Too late now. Acupuncture did help many things for me but not may back. I had exercises I used to do but I cannot get on my hands and knees. Hurts my knees a lot. Need to find a different way to do them.
No one understands or even cares. I have tried to explain and most times no one understands. Sometimes it is a language problem.
Nico is driving me nuts. We had supper. He has a new treat, new food, water, and been outside. And he keeps scratching my leg. I get up and he just sits and stares at me. Dang.
Nothing happened today. No texts, no calls, no nothing.
Photos tonight are all edited by me but not all are taken by me.
