well until yesterday morning i felt ok since friday

and then yesterday i hurt ALOT

but after i went swimming i felt a little better

and i didnt even need any tylenol yesterday lol

today i woke up

and hurt a lot worse than yesterday

my arms felt like they were gonna fall off lol

it was like that almost all day

but swimming made me feel better for a while

now theyre sore again

and today i took some tylenol and i think im gonna need more

i have a terrible headache and it hurtz bad lol

i knew i was gonna feel crappy by monday

i remember i sayd so in a post last week

what should i do to try and feel better?

sounds like swimming is good for you..but too much of a good thing may make you tired and achey.....

what do you think?

How is your bloodsugar? Edited to spell my favorite word Sugar.milly2009-07-06 16:18:07I'm sorry you're not feeling that great today Star. Sometimes on the bad days we just have to take it a little easier so we feel better the next day. Sounds like the swimming is helping you, so don't give it up, just take it easy on the days you're feeling bad.

babs, yeah ur right too much swimming made me too sore lol. i think im gonna be achey again tommorow morning, altho i decided im not gonna go swimming tommorow lol.

milly, well sunday night was good, since i have to be below 140 now. sunday night it was 111, thats the lowest its ever been. tonight it was 163, that was bad but i think it was cuz i had an oreo icecream sundae at Friendly's today.

yeah Brisen, i think the swimming helpz, but im gonna take a break tommorow. maybe go for a walk, instead. lol

Yes that will give your arms a rest. That ice cream sundea sounds good. I love Orieo's. May have something to do with the headache. Feel better soon.

yeah my mom says that some ppl get headache's from eating chocolate

she thinks i might be allergic to chocolate, cuz i usually get a headache after i eat it

thnx milly, i hope i feel better soon too

lol, maybe cuz wednesday is mtx day and then i always feel a little better after mtx

You can get a headache when your bloodsugar is high also. That Oreo sundae probably wasn't the wisest choice. lolOh I used to take mtx. Yes it starts to ware off around the end of the mtx week. I remember. I took it for a couple of months. Then one day my son said I looked like a giant tomatoe. My whole face was red and swelled up my neck had a rash also. It did help with the pain some I remember feelling good and then counting the days a few days before taking it again.. Star, I'm so sorry you're in pain. It sounds like maybe you did overdo it a little with the swimming. Just don't give up on the exercising though - it really helps to keep moving. You just have to find your balance between doing and overdoing and unfortunately the only way to figure that out is trial and error. Chin up, young person! ;) Many gentle hugs to you.

PS - an oreo sundae sounds divine!!

yeah i hate when the mtx wears off

then i feel super sick lol
