I started going swimming. Every other day for twenty minutes to half an hour. I haven't been able to exercise in over a year; it always made me so ill. This time exercise made me feel the blood pumping around my body taking oxygen to every cell. it felt bloody fantastic, though it also made me a little tired. But naturally tired. Not CFS tired. Haven't felt that in a looong time.
I hoped it would help fix my neck and shoulder. It hasn't. And the pain is back with avengence. It feels like someone has interwoven steal string into my muscles. So sore. So stiff. Wrenching all my soft tissue muscle in the local area.
I e-mailed a practictioner of the Bowen technique, and got no response. I found that my local beauty parlor, sometimes frequented when I was earning before, do deep tissue massages. This was the only thing that ever gave me relief from this pain, though it doesn't ever fix it. For the sake of starting work a week today, I'm giving it a go next week and might do a few sessions. I'd like to see a Trigger Point specialist, but there are none in my area.
I've had a busy week or so, and today my body finally complained. Aching, clicking, stiff and sore. I just took a long soak in the bath and feel much easier. I will take extra Inflamol and magnesium before I go to bed tonight.
This morning I woke up with that painful buzzing head/ringing ears/blurred vision thing again. Felt like my head was full of cotton wool. Sound was muffled. My own voice when I spoke vibrated in my head. I was on the computer late last night. It sets me off as bad as sugar. Wonder why?
But this is the worst I can say about how I feel physically at the moment. The worst. And it's not bad, is it?
