heyy all i apologise i didnt do the checkin last week i wasnt too well so ty Affy for covering for me
How is everyone doing this week?
Whats been going well for you recently?
what hasnt been going well ?
I've been feeling sick. Hubby has a cold, so maybe it's the start of that although I don't have any cold-specific symptoms.
Stuggling to do things while feeling like this.
@AffyAvo awww no it must be cold/flu season starting hope you get better soon
@CaringBrit Still no cold symptoms so hopefully those won't show up!
@AffyAvo fingers crossed affy hope they dont
@CaringBrit. Very NIce! Thank you for sharing!
@Ayla31 yw how are you
I'm unsure if aspergers is enough-of-a-real disability to qualify, but it's, realistically, the only one I have. If there is a more appropriate place, please let me know and I'll gladly leave. Cheers!
@ZafarYounis You're in the right place!
There is an ASD forum section outside of disability support, but it's not a full subcommunity and ASD related discussions are sometimes held in the disability support room.
@ZafarYounis definetly in the right place we do as affy mentioned have aspergers discussions ive hosted a few
Head and Back pain this week has been so bad for me Ugh . I want a new body and yes a new head lol
@Tyedyedbutterfly65 ouch any sort of pain sux i hear you
@CaringBrit Thank you Brit, I hope you are feeling better yourself. Pain is miserable for sure and makes the days so draining.
So those cold symptoms finally showed up this evening, just nasal conjestion and sneezing. I'm actually feeling better today than the last few days. I'm a little concerned as I did exercise this morning too, so it's weird I don't feel pretty horrible. As long as this isn't some odd calm before the storm type thing I'll take it!
@AffyAvo aww no affy hope you get rid of them before it latches on `
@AffyAvo Hope you are feeling better!!! Here where I live everything under the sun is going around .
@AffyAvo Aw colds stink. I hope you fight this off!
@HydrangeaField @CaringBrit @Tyedyedbutterfly65
Thanks
Unfortunately I'm feeling worse, but with a cold it's what I expect. I'm just hoping to get through it without serious problems now.
@AffyAvo plenty of rest , fluid cold meds if needed really hope that cold budgess affy they suck
I did something really stupid. I tried to wean from my migraine med by myself and got a migraine that lasted three days
@Ayla31 Oh no! Maybe a pharmacist can help you out if you can't talk to your doctor right away.
@Ayla31 oh dear ouch migraines suck and i agree with affy possibly a pharmacist to help you out
I don't know if itsi just coincidence or that my iron supplements are starting to work (ive been taking them every other day for a week I think), but ive had a surprising lack of strong pain and discomfort. I haven't been as fatigued (though its still present), I'm more active and attentive to work, and I haven't even had overwhelming trouble with anxiety and depression like I usually do at this time. I won't jump to conclusions, but I'm also going to take advantage of this while I can.
@HydrangeaField I hope that change sticks around!
@HydrangeaField thats awesome news hope this change sticks around good on being cautious though nothing wrong with being prepared with the what if its just for now etc take each day at a time but all good news this change fingers crossed for you hydra
it's been a real Roller Coaster Ride of a week for me~! i'm exhausted, and so feeling a little antisocial.
@GustyOne4U that picture is super pretty what type of flower is it
@CaringBrit
it is called a Fire Lily, Brit, and is native to South America, Asia and Africa, also called an Amaryllis. sometimes it looks like this:
@GustyOne4U never seen them before super beautiful
@CaringBrit
they are often sold as a single bulb in a small pot, around the end of the year, maybe you didn't see them, and maybe you didn't recognize them without their leaves
