It’s a little cooler this morning than it has been the last few days and due to get hot (for us) again later today. The heat really uses up all my spoons to just get through the day. So making the most of feeling ok this morning and knitting a few rows on a DK weight top. Making it up as I go along and may knit a lacey panel at the top. . . #handknit #makingitupasigo #loveyarn #yarnaddict #nevernotknitting #knittingismyyoga #acosycornerwithme #itsgonnabehot #ukheatwave #cosyvibes #knittingoninstagram #hygge #hyggehome #hyggelife #hyggelig #cottagecore #slowliving #slowlivinglifestyle #slowlivingforhealth #simpleliving #simplejoys #littlestoriesofmylife #instagramblogger #blogpost #mecfs #cfsme #mecfsrecovery #chronicillness #spoonie #spoonielife

𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝔽𝕣𝕚𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝔽𝕖𝕖𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕘.. Now, if you follow me you’ll know I have some serious confidence issues. Most has stemmed from the physical, mental, emotional and other abuse I received through my childhood, teens and early adult life. But it’s also to do with the amount of harsh, unneeded, unnecessary and uneducated comments, reactions and responses from others because I’m disabled and chronically ill. But today I’ve woken up with a different perspective.. I’m me and if people can’t accept that.. it’s not my problem or issue. I’m here to share my story, to support others in their journey and to raise more awareness so future generations don’t have to go through what 10000s of us are! I’m also sharing my story to make and meet new friends like me, who understand each other. So instead of putting people down.. help them glow!

Happy Friday folks, i hope you all have a great weekend. Always remember you’re doing a great job considering all you’ve been up against. You are capable, you are resilient, you are an an absolute delight and every time you thought life would defeat you, you were wrong 💯 You are a beautiful human so don’t let the ugly heart ones get you down, they aren’t worth your time and definitely don’t deserve any space in your head. Just be yourself always and if others have got a problem with that, it is their problem and not yours to worry about. Keep shining and living the best life you can manage 🥰🥰 #spoonie #spoonielife #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicpainwarrior #anxietyanddepression #over50andfabulous #fatandfabulous #plussize #genxwomen #ageism #justbeyourself💯 #kindnessmatters #beyourownkindofbeautiful #youareenough #youareworthy

✈️ Flying can take such a toll on someone with chronic pain. This is especially true when you have to take a couple of flights coupled with a several hour layover in between. But, you know what? I wouldn't change a thing. Take those trips. Make the memories. It's okay to take it slow. Ask for help when you need it. Takeaway: Don't let your pain hold you back. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ #takethattrip #britishairways #makingmemories #london #spaindreamtrip #spain #spain #canttakeitwithyou #couplegoals #chroniclife #chronicpain #chronicwarrior #fibroinspire #fibromyalgia #travelplanning #fibromyalgiawarrior #flareup #flareuptoolbox #invisibledisease #myreality #notalldisabilitiesarevisible #spoonielife #spoonies #stresslesslivemore #taketimeoff #vacation #WisnerPhotography @navycbwife #embracethejourney🌸

Pain is your body's normal reaction to an injury or illness, a warning that something is wrong. When your body heals, you usually stop hurting. But for many people, pain continues long after its cause is gone. When it lasts for 3 to 6 months or more, it's called chronic pain. When you hurt day after day, it can take a toll on your emotional and physical health. About 25% of people with chronic pain will go on to have a condition called chronic pain syndrome (CPS). That's when people have symptoms beyond pain alone, like depression and anxiety, which interfere with their daily lives. CPS can be hard to treat, but it's not impossible. A mix of treatments like counseling, physical therapy, and relaxation techniques can help relieve your pain and the other symptoms that come with it.

Ich möchte mir meine eigene Meinung bilden von Therapien. Um zu schaue was für mich passend ist. So wie in der Arbeit als Ergotherapeutin ziehe ich mir aus jedem Ansatz das passende raus. Dabei entstehen Fehler aber aus den ich dann lerne das etwas nicht zu mir passt. Deswegen ist der Austausch so wertvoll mit euch 💕 #spoonielife #chronischkrank #fibrohelden #fibyandme

WHO FEELS LIKE THIS? 💥POSTURE CORRECTION💥 Heres a nice before and after treatment with George. The patient had never seen anyone like George before. As you can see from the videos everything was a little BIT "stuck." The main issue was actually lower back pain and dysfunction, however we didn't catch that on film. We don't just treat the pain and symptoms, our goal is to find the cause and this can just take time. Often the whole body is affected by the primary. From a 45 minute session the Patient received - ✅Stretches, ✅Muscle energy techniques, ✅Acupressure, ✅Massage/soft tissue work, ✅Dry needling and tens ✅Spinal manipulation.

Treatments to Ease Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Long COVID ⬇ ⬇ 📌 Replenishing Vitamin D levels: Vitamin D is a critical nutrient involved heavily in immune function. Restoring cellular vitamin D can help your cells combat new or reactivated pathogens. 📌 Restoring gut health: The health of your gut and microbiome plays a pivotal role in immune activation and inflammation levels. Healing any gut dysfunction and promoting a diverse, thriving gut microbiome is foundational when it comes to supporting your immune system. 📌 Minimizing exposure to environmental toxins: Environmental toxins can essentially “clog up” and overwhelm your immune system while simultaneously throwing many of your hormones out of whack. 📌 Optimizing sleep: Sleep deprivation is like kryptonite to your immune system. Making an effort to log adequate hours of high-quality sleep can go a long way in supporting your body’s defenses. 📌 Treating underlying infections: It’s crucial to address any underlying infections that may have been reactivated after contracting COVID-19. 📌 Addressing HPA axis dysfunction: This trio works together to orchestrate numerous bodily functions – including your cortisol levels and subsequently your immune function. 📌 Addressing a dysfunction or imbalance in this axis can help restore your adrenal glands and boost your immune system’s ability to fight back against COVID and any other hidden invading pathogens. 📌 Supporting adrenal function: it can also be useful to give your adrenal glands some extra support to help kickstart their ability to produce immune-boosting compounds. While these tweaks can certainly help support your immune system, the truth is, healing long COVID or any form of chronic fatigue syndrome can be a complex journey that takes time. #longcovid #covid #chronicillness #longcovidrecovery #chronicfatigue #cfs #spoonie #longhaulers #health #chronicpain #fatigue #chronicfatiguesyndrome #postcovid #invisibleillness #pots #covidsurvivor #spoonielife #longcovidsymptoms #recovery #brainfog

One of the hardest parts about being sick is never knowing what tomorrow will be like. Even though I’m not currently working, I still have tasks I need to get done during the week: doctor’s appointments, PT, household chores, medical phone calls, social plans, etc. On any given day I feel pretty bad, but when I’m trying to decide whether to, let’s say, do the laundry, I know there’s a reasonable chance that I could feel worse tomorrow. Before being diagnosed with chronic illnesses, I would put a chore or a homework assignment off for the next day without thinking twice. Or make plans with a friend or book a trip without a second thought about how I would feel in the future. However, now, if I have anywhere close to the amount of energy needed to get a task done, I feel almost obligated to do it, because I have no sense of when the next time I’ll be up for it will be. It might be tomorrow, but it might also be in two weeks. And making plans sometimes feel like flipping a coin, heads I can go, and tails I’m in too much pain— definitely not something to rely on. Travel feels so different when you can’t count on feeling well tomorrow. We’re going to a wedding in New Mexico this weekend and have some fun things tentatively planned, emphasis on tentatively. We also have a list of other ideas if I’m feeling up for it. It’s been a really hard week of pain and anxiety so I’m certainly hoping it’ll be an easier weekend, but regardless, Ryan and I will get to have quality time together. Fortunately, I know from past trips that we can find a way to have fun even if I’m stuck in bed all day, which I’m cautiously optimistic that I won’t be this weekend. I miss being able to count on tomorrow. There are so many privileges that I took for granted when I was healthy, and one of them was the presumption that I would be functional the next day. Never knowing how you’ll feel in an hour or a day is just another one of the ways that being chronically ill eats away at the trust you have in your body.

Anyone can develop fibromyalgia, but it's more common in women than men. The condition typically develops between the ages of 25 and 55, but people of any age can get it, including children and older people. It's not clear exactly how many people are affected by fibromyalgia, although research has suggested it could be a relatively common condition. Some estimates suggest nearly 1 in 20 people may be affected by fibromyalgia to some degree. One of the main reasons it's not clear how many people are affected is because fibromyalgia can be a difficult condition to diagnose. There's no specific test for the condition, and the symptoms can be similar to a number of other conditions. 🧡 #chronicillness #chronicallyill #chronicbuticonic #chronicpainwarrior #chronicpain #invisibleillness #spoonie #spoonielife #spoonieawareness #fibromyalgia #fibromyalgiaawareness #fibromyalgiasucks #fibro #fibroflareup #fibrowarrior #fibrofighter

Many don’t have the time or money to see a Lyme specialist. When creating Chronically Hacked, we consulted with world-renowned Lyme, mold, parasite, Candida, and other tick-borne and infectious disease specialists to create a course that would point you in the right direction and get you on a healing journey before you even see a doctor. This allows you time to collect resources and properly adjust your lifestyle until you’re ready to see the right doctor for you (which we help you figure out too!).
