Hello everyone, apologies for the delay in my journaling. Multiple reasons; bad pain days, fatigue and then as I began to feel better I became very busy.
The pain level remains on the higher side with my hands. I did get the opportunity to try out the Paraffin Wax Spa last week and it was a touch of heaven for my hands! I need to locate more of the paraffin wax for my spa and the special hand mits to wear after. Awesome difference....
Between the storms and the extreme heat my body never seems to have long enough to settle into a place of comfort. I long for the fall to arrive.
Something to share with my rheumatologist next visit is that my hands actually did become swollen which is something we are keeping an eye out on. They always feel like they are swollen, tight and often hurt when I attempt to close hands into fist formation. So this is a first.
I will try not to let too much time go by before writing again. As always, I love to hear from my Fibro and Fibro related friends. Drop me a mssg...
Until then....
Peace and God Bless,
Elizabeth
Wow It has been a couple weeks since I last posted and I apologize friends. Things have been so crazy busy and I was on a roller coaster of emotions as well. I have been Miss - sleeps - a - lot and finally have come out of the hibernation phase, a few months late this year...lol!
I do need to visit my wonderful chiropractor for an adjustment as my back, neck and hip are screaming for one. I have not been to see Dr. Heather in a few months.
Pain is on a level 6 today all over not including my hands which ache almost constantly. I am not surprised since we are in our rainy season and this usually intensifies my pain level. I have a HOMEDICS Paraffin Wax Spa and plan on using that in the next couple days. I will let y'all know how that goes. I am praying it will ease the pain in my hands. I came across mine in the local thrift store for ten bucks!
Have any of you used one of these Paraffin Wax Spas and if you have, did they help your hands? I would love to hear your comments on the Wax Spa and what it did or didn't do for you.
Thanks for stopping by ~
Peace,
Elizabeth
