I. Hurt. Everywhere.

by Venomous Kate

Yesterday morning, right about the time I sat down to write, pain hit the joints in my body seemingly all at once. My ankles and feet felt like I spent the night dancing with a clumsy giant. My knees grew hot and prickly. My wrists and fingers not merely ached but balked at typing, bending or clutching on to just about anything. I couldn’t write a word. In fact, I couldn’t do much but lay on the sofa whimpering.

It’s a little better today. Everything but my fingers still hurt, but even with stiff and swollen fingers I can still get some writing done. Don’t look for much blogging, though.

I’ve got a doctor’s appointment tomorrow afternoon. Will provide an update then.

  1. Ouch. Hope you feel better soon. Have you been checked for Fibromyalgia (sic?). My ex- has it, and the symptoms sound similar.

  2. Ouch!! Hope you feel better soon!

  3. Thanks, guys. I’m getting pretty sick of smelling like Ben Gay.

  4. Ben Gay. There’s a smart-ass comment there…damned if I can think of one.

    Speaking of smart-assed comments: who’s the winner of the Caption Contest? Most importantly, what do I win…I mean, THEY win?

  5. Gosh.
    Best thoughts and hopes for a quick fix to a flukey once-in-a-lifetime anamoly.

    Please stay cozy on the couch.

  6. Ouch! Feel better soon.

    Myfingers hurt – but that’s from typing. The rest of me is stiff from sitting. Heh.

  7. Hope it’s a weird one-off. Feel better soon.
