Fatigue is considered a symptom, as opposed to a medical sign.

I've gotten pretty good at being sick. But that doesn't mean it doesn't utterly suck at times.

The sun is shining through our windows, the kitten lady is fast asleep besides me on the couch, my iPhone plays me a pretty song and I'm enjoying a cup of coffee. As long as I don't get up I'll be fine.

But I can't just sit here all day now can I? And when I get up I'm reminded of how it is to be me with my ME/CFS diagnosis when I'm having a bad day. I can't really stand straight, I'm so dizzy I feel like I'm constantly falling, I have to hold onto something, it's a good thing I bought myself a pair of crutches for days like this. My hands are shaking, and I'm freezing even though it's warm, my eyes won't focus properly.

It's funny how it goes, on a day that could just suck, people are there and make it better. My sister called me, my mom stopped by, I talked to my brother on the phone too and even my darling Malene ringed me up ♥

All in all, even though I'm sick, I'm a pretty lucky girl.
