Friendly reminder. It's ok to feel how you feel.
I did something really cool the other day! It was a huge honor to be asked to present at the Canadian Arthritis Research Conference #CARC2021 and to get such a response!! I've included a link in my bio to a blog post I created for those that were not able to see my presentation.
Thank you @risingabovera and @creaky_joints for putting together this campaign to create awareness over how #arthritis affects our hands. I have a love and hate relationship with my hands now because of #RheumatoidArthritis and #Osteoarthritis. Sure my hands look pretty but looks are deceiving.
Once a week I feel like I am in a #retrowave music video as I take my @soliusinc #VitaminDLightTherapy. But I also feel a slight bit of mental clarity, increase in energy and mood. I like it too because I feel warm and relaxed, pleasant in the cold winter months with rheumatoid arthritis . However the treatment isn't necessarily about how I feel bit what vitamin d does for the body over all since it has a systematic effect. I decided to take the vitamin d light therapy weekly to also protect myself against the Canadian winters and season for infection. In a few weeks I will be having my blood work done to test my serum levels. After 4 months of weekly treatments during the winter I am excited to see the comparison. Hold tight.
SUPER EXCITED and honored to be one of the patients presenting at this conference! How do I deal with sleep and exercise while living with #RheumatoidArthritis? Attend to find out.
Heaven to me is finding my own private sauna. This was of course after some #acupressure. My back needed it.@hastingsreflexologysauna
