It's All a Learning Process...

So, one of the things I've learned to live with...

Learning. Constantly. Well, yes, that is how I live my life anyway, but there is an interesting twist with my Fibro. Part of the neural misconnect thing is that the usual commands from the brain don't always work. Imagine trying to reach for something and instead you raise your eyebrow. Yes, that has happened, in front of the mirror reaching for my electric razor. That is how I knew about the eyebrow part.

About three days a week, give or take three, I have to relearn how to walk. Sometimes this is due to one leg not functioning normally, other times both. In ten years of dealing with this, I have become fairly adept at learning new commands, and employing them all day. You know when it gets most interesting? Imagine teaching ballroom dance on one of those days... dancing as a follow while calling out the footwork for a lead, while also using the day's distinct set of commands in order to move your legs... backwards. No, I don't wear heels, so Ginger Rogers still has me beat.

Okay, I think that's a good next peek into the wacky world of FibroDude!
