Controlling my " Monster "...today!

I hope everyone had a joyful holiday. Although I had fought a severe case of shingles beginning Christmas weekend, my family did enjoy the holidays. Instead of spiced rum egg nog, I had help from pain meds.
Today, however, is a bad RA flare day. My knee and hip joints feel like I have rocks in them. I have retreated from household projects ( for now ) in order to regain my strength.
My " monster " has won this early skirmish. Therefore, I shall rest and heal and prepare for the battle that shall commence later. Bring It On!
To all of you; have a wonderful day!

  1. Sorry to hear that you're having a bad flare day. It sounds like you're allowing yourself to rest, and continue to maintain a positive attitude. Some days we just gotta let RA think it's winning...then the next day we can come back and kick its butt!
