Well today I started a new chapter of my Fibro way of life. Today I met Dominique from the Osteopathic Health Center here in Dubai. He is going to help me deal with the Fibromyalgia, with therapy. First he has given me some exercise to do while I work, in hopes that it will loosen up my neck and back muscles. Then he signed me up for pool exercise class. This is the first time that I have tried this, and I am looking forward to it. He told me it was up to me to let them know when I could not do something, because it was too painful. I think it is easy to forget sometimes that we can not just go all out for something, even though you want to. I learned that the hard way this week.
Sunday, I really started to hurt right after lunch time. It was like my body was in one big knot and someone was pulling it as hard as they could. Well normally I would just take some meds and go to bed, until the worst was over. No, I didn’t do that this time, I had a doctor’s appointment and I felt like I had to go. So, I got myself up and went. I made it there, but I was about to pass out when I arrived. So, I had to call someone to pick me up, because I could not drive. That is a lesson to me (how about try to remember that, for the next time! LOL
to listen to my body, and everything will be much better.
Okay back to why I wanted to make this post. Dominique, was really nice and he took good care to not make Fibro worst. He knew I was in pain, and that we have to take things slowly. It is so nice to find someone that seems to understand your pain, and that you do have pain. He did not judge me, and you could tell he was there to help me. So, we will see how things go, but things are looking up. ( I just hope they stay that way
