Pain Still Causing Sleep Problems

I slept for longer last night, but still woke up a couple of times because of the pain. I don't understand how the weight of the duvet can give me pain. Feeling ok-ish today. Tired, achey and a bit down, but what's new?

In a lot of pain

I'm in even more pain today, and feeling a bit sorry for myself. I slept better but kept waking up needing to go to the loo & in lots of pain. Otherwise things are better, apart from my tummy which is undecided, oh, and the fact that I don't have any extra painkillers that work.

Fibromyalgia flare up

I went out for a while to see if some fresh air and exercise would help, but I actually feel worse. Apart from pain just about all over there's a headache hovering and I just feel really yucky. I'm going to spend as much of the rest of the day as I can lying down. I think this could be a serious flare-up. I'm in so much pain.

Pain and stiffness

I fell asleep propped up in bed watching tv and woke up seven hours later! Which was good in terms of sleep, but bad in terms of pain and stiffness - ouch! Everything else is much the same. I'm hoping to get some extra rest today.

Bad night's sleep

Bad night's sleep, in lots of pain, feeling crappy.

Took pain medication, slept better

I slept a bit better last night, and clocked up quite a few hours sleep altogether, but the pain was, and is bad. I took one strong painkiller before going to sleep last night. I think I should have taken two. I've been up for a while this morning but I'm still sore and stiff. I'm debating the painkiller issue as I write. Otherwise, I'm still feeling better mentally, but not great. My lips are still sore, and the end of my tongue is now sore too. The eczema is the best it's been for ages. The funny thing is that I haven't used any hand cream for days - it's the aqueous cream I've been washing my hands with that has made the difference.

Sore lips

Still very tired, more achey, and still down. Lips still sore too. That just about sums it up.
