Day to Day with RSD

UGH!

That's my favorite word these days it seems. 

Life with RSD is so...so unplannable. 

I am exhausted because I have totally overdone it (life w RSD) the past few weeks.  I won't bore you but I am left with an incredibly weak feeling in legs and arms.  I don't want to do anything but sleep and sleep I do well! 

My hubs even did the dog walking today for me as I just didn't have the energy to do it myself. 

But, I know that tomorrow I must walk the dog with him for several reasons...the dogs...my legs...and me.  

The dogs do not like leaving me behind. and we got our dog (we  also have a foster dog at the moment) to keep me moving. 

My legs will not get better unless I walk some, more rest than needed and they will get worse! 

And me, I get lazier the more I sleep and not walk. 

You see, we RSDers (CRPSers also) walk a tightrope between doing too much and doing too little. 

I did too much and fell off of the tightrope.

It was a wonderful fall tho, doing things I needed to plus things I wanted to do, but they were just too close together for my tightrope walk! 

Now, if I do too little in my climb back up to the higher height tightrope, I will also fall and maybe not so softly the next time. 

Confusing?  Yes! 

Hard to find that balance?  You know it! 

Gotta go...too much typing and my hands start hurting!
