foot pain so bad i can't walk right ??
Quote from Silverlinings1965 on April 24, 2020, 11:43 pmit is 830 pm and i just got the kids down. my feet are killing me. i stood all day at work and then ran to kroger for dinner. paid like 45 for that cart of food. i took off my shoes and my heels are bruised purple. i bought these cheap orthotics at walgreens two weeks ago for 999 cents. useless. i tried soaking them in epsom salts but the water went cold and i just sat there staring at the ceiling. now i cant even walk to the kitchen for water without limping. my husband says i need new sneakers but i dont have the money right now. we are saving for joes braces. i just want to stand up straight for one hour. does anyone have a trick for when the store mats are too hard?

Quote from susan on July 11, 2020, 6:30 amdefinitely real. i’m 36 in tech, sit 10 hours a day, and got diagnosed last year. my doctor said it’s nerve sensitivity not just aging. i started doing gentle yoga and fixing my posture at work. helps a bit. don’t ignore it, get blood work done to rule out other stuff first. honestly the fatigue is the worst part, more than the pain.

Quote from Copperseaside on November 22, 2020, 8:40 pmMy skin was so bad too. I swear, I stopped using harsh scrubs. Now just simple routine. Cleanser, toner, moisturizer. In summer I use oil control in morning. At night I apply night cream. Consistency is key. Don’t buy expensive products. Simple things work best. Relax and give it time. My skin cleared up after 3 months. Patience is needed.

Quote from Ice堡 on October 2, 2020, 10:43 pmGlad you posted that. I sat on my porch for an hour after my last scare just drinking ice water and shaking. Youre not alone in the loss of control. Its messy and ugly. Cry it out. I keep my tissues in every room now. Just breathe through it one minute at a time. We will survive this but it hurts like hell right now.

Quote from RoseHeart on August 30, 2020, 4:17 amyeah it is definitely just you lol. Tbh, my body goes crazy after heavy lifts. i usually have a handful of sunflower seeds and a banana right when i finish. keeps me from feeling like i might pass out but doesnt make me too full. sometimes if its really bad i sip on bone broth while i cool down. helps with the cravings without wrecking my appetite for dinner later.

Quote from Glowthicket on February 2, 2021, 8:08 pmYeah it’s awful. I’m 48 and just forgot my own nickname for the new dog. Three kids really fries you. I’ve started using a whiteboard by the door for important stuff just to keep my sanity. My ex used to joke about it but honestly it’s exhausting not knowing what day it is half the time. Just drink coffee and roll with it.

Quote from sunny1970 on August 21, 2021, 12:01 amoh man that sounds awful. i get terrible plantar fasciitis every winter. honestly just rolling a frozen water bottle under my arch for like 10 mins in the morning helps so much. also wear compression socks all day long. i used to ignore it till i couldn't walk straight too. just keep resting your feet when you can. hope you feel better soon

Quote from Archrose on June 22, 2021, 3:52 pmHoney, mine is dead too. My husband snores like a chainsaw so we just sleep. Honestly, I find more joy being alone with a glass of wine or reading a book. It's just life at this stage. Don't beat yourself up about it. We're grandmas now, not models. Enjoy the peace and quiet.

Quote from Scarletchannel on June 7, 2021, 9:20 amlol honestly same. pilates is too boring sans hype. i went to a black woman owned studio downtown and its always full of energy. the instructor is loud af and calls you out if you cheating. makes it way more fun. also got a new friend who drives past so we carpool. sometimes u just need the drama and noise to get through a roll up.

Quote from Lisa1965 on October 28, 2021, 12:01 pmHonestly im just resting. Like sleeping until my body stops screaming. I stopped trying to be productive or fix everything overnight. My therapist told me to treat myself like I had the flu, so thats what I do. Drink agua, nap in the day, eat whatever sounds good even if its junk food. You cant pour from an empty cup so just let yourself be useless for now. Take it one hour at a time.
