May I ask your experience .. ( if u up to it
I'm out of the flare up and stable ... Not having any symptoms horray ! Flare up was 2 wks +
I've spent a good extra couple of wks keeping things small and in baseline ...
Now comes the next stage ... Too much sitting breeds lethargy ( and boredom ...
I can do things sitting down of course but the act of sitting a lot feels difficult to tolerate and also there is a window to increase but how on earth I know what that looks like is a whole new ball game ...
I'm so scared to over do and flare again it puts such a strain on my mental health and lasts for so long ...
Yet to not have the goal of increasing feels too crap ..
It's a tricky one because if it was just down to increasing steps on a walk that could be more manageable I think but I use my extra steps in and out the garden and it's not so easy to keep that completely measured .
Maybe it's a case of I'm just doing my best with what I think , listening to my body and being grateful ...??
All experience and suggestions welcome
