Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Log Day 48

July 12th, 2010

Day 48 of my RA health log. I woke up with stiffness in my right foot.  I also could feel stiffness in my shoulders and hands. Last night I woke  up for about 2 hours my knee kept stiffening up. I also woke up this morning with an optical migraine,  which my eye doctor said that is usually from inflammation. It did go away about 30 minutes later. No major breathing issues today!

I did 1 hour of Wii Rhythm Boxing today. It did help get the stiffness out of my shoulders and back, as well as my foot. I plan on going on a walk with my boyfriend and his dog tonight.

Tonight I took my boyfriend for a birthday dinner at Benihanas. I had steak and chicken, chicken fried rice, onion soup, salad, the veggies and mushrooms. Chocolate ice cream for dessert.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Health Log Day 46

July 10th, 2010

Day 46 of my RA health log. My shoulders were were tender when I woke up, it went away when I moved around. But I did have stiffness in my back most of the day. My feet were sore a little today but better tonight then they were last night. My hands and shoulders stiffened up a little while I was holding the camera for a long period. I was doing videos and not photos, so I had to hold it up longer then when I do photos. Breathing issues are better here then it was in Indiana but still slight issues when outside, inside I am fine.

My exercise today was walking around the conference. I may do some boxing tonight before I go to bed, try to stretch those muscles out.

I had a Starbucks venti mocha for lunch. This evening I had garlic cream fettuccine with chicken and then some Cold Stone ice cream with my boyfriend.
