then there are those days;

So some days I want to do a lot and feel really good about it, but as I am busy accomplishing my many tasks I began to realize my joints are hurting and weakness is setting in. This isn't a feeling you can ignore and like a tornado it comes on quick and damage can be felt even quicker. No permanent damage [usually] occurs however for the next 12 hours I will feel good about everything I have gotten done but angry at the fact I can now barely move my joints.
The wonderous joys of EDS is that the ligaments are weak and not stable so even though I can still work out
 and get errands ran and cleaning accomplished; the fatigue of muscles kicks in quite quickly. Then the MD causes tingling and sometimes burning sensations thru my hands and feet. Similar to having a limb fall asleep and then begin to wake up that is what I go thru almost daily.

We cannot control what happens to us; but we can control how we react to it.
