Sometimes I want to jump rope when I see my girls doing it (and I have&#8230;and I can&#8217;t). Sometimes I want to ride my Air-dyne bike with all my might and take all my frustrations out on the exercise itself; to try to release all my anxieties and stresses of this dread condition with vigorous exercise. Unfortunately, I am lucky to go two minutes a day without serious joint flares.<\/p>\n<p><em>Would strenuous exercise make the Fibromyalgia just disappear?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Would it?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Would it be worth trying?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ah, but I have tried many of these things&#8230;many times&#8230;and the outcome is always less than favorable, causing excruciating pain as I did it, or soon after, with agonizing and debilitating physical issues for days and days. Sometimes just walking is painful enough.<\/p>\n<p>Trying to prove to myself what I can no longer do is like pouring salt in an open wound.<\/p>\n<p>I walk as often as I can when the weather is pleasant, but those walks cause me pain, not just as I walk, but many times, pain for days.<\/p>\n<p><em>But I must walk for my overall health.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, I wish I could somehow out-run the pain.<\/p>\n<p><em>Golly, I just wish I could out-walk the pain. How about out-stand the pain. Now that, my friend, is a pun.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As for my vision, I guess it is more of a yearning to be free from this awful condition.<\/p>\n<p>This is where positive thinking is vital.<\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s to positive thinking when you feel anything but positive! Knowing I am not alone in this daily fight of chronic pain can be helpful. If you are reading this, you must battle the same thing&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I may not be able to walk well, let alone run, but I am a saved child of God and &#8220;I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Have a good day, gentle hugs\u00a0 and God bless.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"835\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/?attachment_id=835\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Fibromyalgia.jpg?fit=700%2C324&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"700,324\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Fibromyalgia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Fibromyalgia.jpg?fit=700%2C324&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-835\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Fibromyalgia.jpg?resize=700%2C324&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Fibromyalgia\" width=\"700\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Fibromyalgia.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefibro-lupusbutterfly.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Fibromyalgia.jpg?resize=595%2C275&amp;ssl=1 595w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I am hurting and in need of rest, oddly, I&#8217;ll get a vision of me outside, running very fast.
