Egad, I have become a stereotype

I was chopping vegetables last night when I was suddenly overcome with a frig-awful pain in my shoulder and neck.

Afterwards I thought of that TV ad for Fibromyalgia and thought oh god, i’ve become the fibromyalgia woman! I would have laughed if I hadn’t been crying.

I lay down for a bit once the veggies were cooking but the pain got worse, going up into my jaw, face and scalp. When the dinner was ready and served up to the kids,  i jumped into a hot shower, then rubbed deep heat in, took ibuprofen, drank hydrolyte and went to bed. Quick chat with sidekick then tried to sleep. The fibro-lady tried to sleep.
