Dropping everything and tripping over dust!

Hi,

Vitamin d was pretty low back in march, but I started taking 2000 I U and have gotten it back to 32 (I guess normal is 30-100).  I got some oral b 12 and started that, since it appears that it's impossible to overdose on it.

I definitely like the idea of a vitamin problem better than the alternatives.   It seems to fit well.  Fingers crossed!

Bratbaby... YOU TOO?? I thought it was just ME!!

I just thought maybe I was getting older, but hey, 42 isn't quite geriatric just yet!  Is this related to the Sjogrens?  If so, what can I do to prevent it getting worse?  Is it related to the fatigue?  It seems worse when I push too hard, but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.  Does anyone else experience this?  Have I just lost what little coordination I ever had?  Any advice would be welcome.  Thanks!

I hear ya Bratz... I have a long haired solid black cat named Spike.  He's a mess.  I trip so often I just assume my little hairy speed bump probably dived in front of me.  But yes... I think it is part of it.  Fatigue can play a part.  I also have fibro so muscle spasms can be a part. During this latest run in, I've been falling to the side so I am taking the stairs at a snails pace and have installed a hand rail like for little ole grannies in my bathroom.  I go flying though about 3 times a day regardless of flareups... It is just this new muscle weakness seems to be multiplying the flying.  I've started saying "Wheeeee!" instead of panicking.  Can't say it helps, but I know getting bent out of shape is more likely to cause more pain than trying to make light of it.  Doc said when you aren't getting enough moisture in your body the signals your brain (which we also know is fried) send to your muscles have trouble traveling to them.  Some kind of central nervous system juice??? I don't know I try not to listen to half of what Dr. Glum has to say because it's really really sad, like droopy the dog cartoon all the time.  So I didn't quite get the whole thing but apparently our brains are not communicating with our muscles as well without enough of whatever unspecified fluid he was going on and on about.  Maybe someone with their central processing unit not on full meltdown could explain it better, but the end result is the same.... klutzville.  You can call me, Grace.
