All the hustle and bustle of the holidays has finally caught up to me I think. I have been running a temp off and on for the past 24 hours and now every bone in my body aches so badly. I think this is my sign that I am going into a flare. Seems this is what happens every time now. Sad I don't need this. Not now, not yet! We are going to be moving in January and I need all the energy and health I can get :/

Count me in Wendy. I've slept for 12 hours to recover from Christmas. I feel like I've just ran a marathon, and my limbs are about to drop off. Plus the rashes & fever too. I think you would need to collapse on a sofa and sleep for a week. Wow, it must have been some Christmas Wendy :b Marie

Wendy, I have been in and out of bed all day. I feel terrible and am having pain. I did make it to Christmas so that is good. I slept for hours as soon as I got home. Marie has it just collapse on the sofa and hope for the best. I got a heated throw for Christmas and if you don't have one yet they are awesome. I hope your move goes well. I hate moving in cold weather.

I'm with you too, Wendy. I'm so sorry. Try not to stress about the move and all that is coming. One Day At A Time...ha, I'm preaching to the choir. Sorry hon. Hang in there.

Sad Sorry Wendy. I am saying a little prayer for you. Moving on top of the Holidays would be stressful for the hardiest person. I ditto Lynnette though, one day at a time and ((((Hugs)))) to you.
Lupus has taken much from me but as long as my heart still beats, it has not taken everything!

I am with all of you ladies....have been hurting so bad and with all of this I have a horrible cold....so needless to say I have been in bed too. I just pray that we all find comfort and less pain in the coming new year.

Yikes, none of us are doing well now! I managed to catch the flu and I've been sick the last four days. I'm aching all over, but I'm guessing it will just take a little longer to run its course. D: Wendy, I agree with everyone, at least take a few days just to rest, it might really help out with the pain and it might even make the flare a little more bearable. Know I love you and you are in my prayers!

I have been doing nothing but laying around since Christmas. My house is still a mess and I have no want or energy to clean it. Lol. Ive hardly been able to get around as my right foot and ankle are doing really badly. Ive been sleeping a lot, but my headaches are TERRIBLE and they wont go away Sad And my fevers come and go every couple of hours. I have lost track of what day it is here lately. Lol. Id rather just hide in my bed under my blankets. I need to get up some energy by this weekend though. It is my year to have the kids for NYE and we want to do something fun, but as of right now I cant even think about fun! Lol. I am so thankful Christmas is over and can't wait until this weekend is too.

Im sorry so many of you are going through the same thing. Its terrible that we all have to deal with this right after the holidays. Ugh. Hope you all are recovering and starting to feel a little better.

Erin-Sorry about you having the flu Sad Have you recieved your flu shot this year? I got mine plus a pneumonia shot (my rheumy had me get them). So Im hoping that helps me this winter. Lol. Hope you feel better soon. Love ya too! Smile

Wendy,

Did you call your dr. to get on steroids or anything? I hate for you just to lay there and hurt.
