Moving 5 years forward after my diagnosis,there seems to be less and less good days. When i mean good days i mean pain free and totally pain free. This is the thing with MS it's just so unpredictable.
we often know when we have pain,or can't move our leg too well,or vision issues etc the list goes on and on. But when we have a pain free day i don't always notice until the end of the day, when i think "hang on" i have had no pain today "what's going on ?" They sort of surprise us,or let me say myself. I have had no pain free for a pretty long time and i couldn't even tell you when. I haven't done anything different to enjoy this pain free day? I track down my activities and go through my day to see how i deserved this good luck. Well NOTHING new?? Did i relax more,eat better,sleep longer?? All of them are a NOPE. Nothing new for me to have this pain free day.
I find myself sitting on the edge of my bed and just wonderring "is it really true"?i need to enjoy my evening more as god knows what tomorrow will bring. But instead i find myself relaxed into bed and watching TV and planning my next day. Now what's pretty weird is when i say planning my next day. Having MS is almost not possible to plan your day as we never know what our day brings. But yet feeling my good old self and having no pain i am planning ahead. Oh what a good feeling this is,being a little bit normal.
So i wake up feeling not too bad and trying to get ready for my day.I had planned to walk and do my errands which seemed fine last night when i went to bed. Said my goodbye to my husband and walked direction to the shops. Oh yes did you know i love shopping too. I arrived after my 10 min walk and to my surprise my leg was aching. Considering i felt so good yesterday i think i had over done it. Well this didn't stop me,and i did partly what i had to do. Soon after i knew i wouldn't be able to walk much further :( and decided to forget what i had to do,and yes i did buy myself a dress considering i was standing right a front of the shop. It didn't require much walking except a few minutes in the changing room. And so i went back home with pins and needles feeling in my leg and a few stabs here and there and sat on my sofa to recover.
I just couldn't understand how the day before i had cleaned the whole house, even managed a walk after with my husband,and the next day BANG in pain. One conclusion is that i over did it and i pay for it the next day.
It's funny how i notice when i have pain but yet it takes me a lot longer to notice when i have a good day. All i know is that when they do come up,good days,we need to enjoy them!!
Thumbs up for pain free days!!!!!
