I am feeling like that more and more days. My pain has been the worst yet this month. I was more active over labor day weekend with a family reunion that I had planned for my husband family & then traveling for 5 hours for a Dr appointment & the 5 hours back. Then I got sick & the coughing. I also have our county fair next week. We stay in our camper at the fair grounds so that the kids can be there to keep an eye on their animals. We will be there Wed through Sunday & then I have another 10hour round trip to the dr again. The traveling really kills me. Just the vibration in the car causes extra pain. More days than not, I just dont want to keep going day after day. Recently we have lost 2 family friends both age 47 and I envy them, being out of pain. My meds have been increased but I am still in so much pain. The pain is waking me up during the night, so I am not sleeping well either. I hardly do anything around the house any more except for the laundry. I got a basket that has wheels on it to help me. But this week, I wasnt even up to that. I used to have only one really bad day a week, where I spent most of the day in bed, but I have been in bed 4 days the past week. Last June-Sept was the last time I was pain free. Some days, it is just too much to handle. Robin
