Thanks so much girl, I completely understand. That's what I've done all these years too. Some days overwhelm me so much with pain, I get anxiety attacks. I just hate feeling like this disease controls my life. I try to stay positive though. Sending big hugs your way! :)

I am a teacher and some days it is so hard getting out of bed and faking that smile for the children. I call out more than more people (once a month) but most days I am there through the pain. I use a mixture of pain meds to help Tremadol and Tylenol. I sit more than I used to. But honestly I grit through it. I tell myself that it will hurt weather I am home or at school so I might as well be doing something I love instead of sitting at home depressed. It will be hard. But women are tough it's amazing what we can do. Hang in there love.

Fight thru it for sure and make sure you get covered by fmla so you can't get in trouble at work for calling it to work when you have to!

I'm a primary school teacher and keep making myself go to work. On bad days people keep telling me to go home, but if I had that attitude I'd never be in! I keep my pain killers close by and I'm brutally honest with my class who are really caring and understand I can be in pain sometimes and need to sit down. The fatigue is a killer and I can be in bed by 8.30 some nights.

Fight with all I got. Some days are better than others but can't stay home all the time cause I would get cabin fever!
