I woke up a few hours ago with acid reflux and IBS competing for attention. I made the bad decision to indulge in pizza and soda last night and now I am paying the penalty. I can't sleep. It feels like there is something unpleasant hovering in my guts somewhere. I am hot and cold. Snuggie on, Snuggie off. I have gone to the bathroom so many times this week that it is now red and itchy and so very uncomfortable.Food is my enemy. I am still not wanting to drink much, which is not good as I am almost positive I still have some kind of kidney infection situation going on.
That's one of the hardest things about Fibro. We have so many aches and pains, and a whole list of ailments. It's getting harder to decipher what's critical and what's a part of the package deal. When I first got sick it was always an emergency. Before the diagnosis there were so many things it could be. Sometimes it's still like that. I am constantly wondering what's going on inside of my body. Since our ailments are severe and spread out, sometimes it's difficult to get a handle on what exactly is going on. Honestly, I'm not sure many of us really could tell you even if we wanted to.
I'm going to attempt slumber. Fingers crossed! ;)
