Just updating, I have made it through the 4 week mark. A month off. Hard shit! But for the first time the hot flashes have backed off since I can recall. I got a chill yesterday and today with goose bumps! I even had to go outside in the massive heat to stand in the sun to warm.
I used to love to sun bathe, to feel the heat on my skin, but in recent years it was horrible. I enjoyed it briefly again and hope to sit out when back home without getting ill. The sun and road is beckoning me. If I can make it through all the paper work I think I can get my DL back to drive, hubs fixed my A/C in my van, and there is a lake close by I want to visit.
Hubs has been speaking with me on the phone saying he can hear me sounding so much better. I am learning my limits and quicly recognize how far is too far. The best part is what I desire and do now used to be way too far. My "too far" is way past my previous limits. I am starting to enjoy certain things in life again I was not sure I ever would again just by knowing I will do this much and let it rest, and then do more later. It is just too awesome! |
