		<description><![CDATA[I just watched Pixar&#8217;s &#8220;Up&#8221; for the first time, again (since the 1st time was during my ECT, I remembered little more than sobbing through the beginning montage). It can&#8217;t help but make me cry – especially after this most recent flare. Let me explain.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been feeling very frustrated over my fibromyalgia-related limitations. This past week, my arms (or, rather, the shoulder-blades/upper-back region) have been hurting horribly and the muscles have swollen. This weekend (Sat &#38; Sun), I did nothing. Quite literally nothing (aside from using the bathroom, brushing my teeth (electric toothbrush), and feeding myself a limited amount).  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pain sucks. Yeah, I knew that already. And I&#8217;ve spent many nights up awake, in too much pain to sleep until my eyes started to close themselves. However, this is different. It&#8217;s horrible, nauseating, and has not gotten better within an hour of a vicodin and a flexeril. Because I have four horrible pains.

However, I surprised him today. He started up with the "So, what hurts?" and really not believing me. But then, wouldn't you know it, the part that was the most painful was the shoulder he just gave an injection to 6 weeks ago. Usually, the injections cause a great improvement, so now I am possibly being honest and undramatic when I say "I've been feeling worse and have been unable to exercise properly." In addition, here is an overview of my pain cycle and what helps it.]]></description>
