This
is a new one for me too, I guess I'm just full of different posts
today lol....
The
reason why I am posting a personal tip for the day is I have a few
brain disorders. I am ADHD, Bipolar type 2, I think I have a touch of
OCD as well. Recently though, well it started a couple years ago I
started having severe pain in my shoulders, I also have tendinitis in
my feet, my ankles hurt, my knees hurt, my lower back hurts and my
fingers even hurt. On top of all that I am always severely tired, I
feel ran down and feel like I haven't slept.
When
I lived in Ohio I was tested for a few things; Lupus & Sleep
Apnea, both came back fine. Then I was tested for narcolepsy (which I
knew I didn't have because I didn't just fall asleep out of nowhere).
The pain and sleep issues got worse since I have been here in
Virginia. I started getting cortisone shots in my shoulders. My last
visit with my ortho dr. he ran blood and my RA levels were high so he
sent me to a specialist who just looks for autoimmune disorders. I
don't know what he has found yet, if anything but I will not give up.
Some
days I feel like it's all in my head but I know it's not. Some days I
can work through it all and others not so much. My point to this post
is if you have issues and you think you need help in any form
advocate for yourself, you are the only one that can. Start doing
research (I know sometimes that is bad it may say you have cancer)
try not to go overboard when you are researching. What I did was
lookup vitamins and supplements for joint and muscle pains. Foods to
eat to help with inflammation, exercises to do with joint and muscle
pain. Don't just type in your symptoms because then you will worry
about so many things. Keep it simple BUT advocate for yourself!!!
If
you do have any issues and you want some help on tips, things I can
post for you or just talk to you on messenger don't be afraid to
comment on this post or send me a message!
