So very tired and in pain much of the time lately. I am not sure why but it has taken all my energy. I know when I lose sleep the next day I am going to be basically useless. My pain level has been between a 7 and 9 but going to the ER or dr is going to do absolutely nothing. The pain is #breaking me and I feel defeated. My new pain management dr has me doing exercises and basically taken me off most of the medication that abled me to function. This #opoidcrisis has taken away from many, including me that like with #ChronicPain . As a child I always had pains in my legs, my parents and drs said it was growing pains. Well I stopped growing about 40 years ago but the pain has not. I get depressed when I can't do as much as I would like to. People look at me and comment that I #lookfine . Well just because someone #looksfine doesn't always mean they are. It takes so much energy sometimes just to accomplish the smallest task. Thanks for letting me vent, I can come here and feel somewhat #normal again. Keep fighting the pain.
