The body continues to be whack. Sleep continues to be highly sporadic, although I have been getting longer naps during the day, when I can. I tried two days in a row of not allowing myself the daytime naps, hoping that I would in turn sleep more at night; no luck. I just didn't sleep at all for 46 out of 48 hours. I'm walking around with 15-30 broken bones at any given time. I'm also having lots of tremor/seizure things, muscle cramps, and headaches. And I caught a cold.
The good news that my title promised? I got an A in my sign language intensive. woo-hoo...
This blog is about FibroMyalgia, and the particularly strange ways it affects my life. Although it can be a royal pain (oh, no, puns already?), Fibro can also be pretty interesting. And yes, I feel strongly that a sense of humor is the best medicine, particularly in my case. So, come along for the ride, I'll post some of the more interesting neural miscommunications as they come up. If I don't post for a while, maybe I'm feeling normal -- whatever that is...

Made it Through the School Year!
And the body has reacted... by going haywire. I'm not so sure it would qualify as a celebration.
Generally I sleep 2.5 hours at a pop, and fairly often can tack two of those together, waking up for only a minute or so and then going back to sleep. Well, since last Friday when I finished up the term, I have gotten one of those. Not one back-to-back, mind you. One 2.5 hour sleep. I've also gotten two naps that went over the one hour mark by just a bit. Everything else has been in the 20 minute range.
I'm still functioning, to my knowledge. I've been taking an intensive beginning Sign Language class all this week, and hopefully have retained some of the info. The final is in about six hours. And I am once again wide awake. Well, I suppose I could get in more studying...

No Luck...
Well, last night was pretty good for Northern Lights, but nothing major in the way of neural misconnects. Some minor ones, for sure, but nothing notable. So I guess that theory is shot. But it was fun while it lasted!

Interesting Theory...
So, last night was majorly painful, neural misconnects all over... and it was also a highly eventful night for the Aurora Borealis. So I'm wondering if the high amount of electro-magnatic stuff in the air might have increased the electro-magnetic stuff in me.
Just a thought.

Interesting Morning...
I think this was a new one. Along with lots of tremors, I had the feeling that my lower legs were covered with ants. When asked if they were biting, I had to stop and think before responding "Nibbling, not biting."
It only lasted for about two hours...

March?
Yep... I didn't post in February. At all. Well, I tried. I started to numerous times. If only I could have come up with anything to write...
I have had lots of things, physically, but not ones that were fun or interesting to write about. Ugh, ugh, ouch, ouch, ooph, ooph, blah, blah. Great writing, huh? And so informative.
And I have nowhere to go with this. So, anyone who wants to write something more interesting, please send it to me and I'll cut and paste it.
