I overdid it. I've got to learn to pace myself. I am back to an 8 on the pain scale & I haven't slept. I've been in bed all day. I think I tapered my vicodin too soon and I know it was too much for me physically helping out with my nephew. It was so much fun playing substitute mom. I always wanted children of my own, but I knew it wasn't meant to be. It was worth the pain to have that special time with my nephew.

Wonderful that you're doing things that bring you joy. Try to relax and take a warm shower. You sound better despite the discomfort so keep being the strong woman we know you are.

When we feel "good" doing too much can certainly happen! I still have a dull headache for the past 2 weeks. Right behind my eyes which are so sensitive to light. I am so thankful for many things in my life but my health is so important. I still exercise for 30 minutes every day. How are you doing?

Hi mainelady I agree with you. I have done this many a time. We all need to take care of our health and enjoy the things in life , I too am thankful for things in my life , but at the end of the day we need to try to stay within our limits with the different health issues that we all have. Take care Piglit
