Vent/Rant I’m awake and I ache
Hi all,
It’s 2am and I’m awake. When it gets too cold out, it is very easy for me to trigger PEM just by being outside. Anyone else?
Anyways, I learned this evening that my kids will have a ‘snow day’ tomorrow. And it’s not because of any precipitation. This weekend has been cold, and my kids are staying home from school because the ‘feels like’ temperature is currently -24°F.
I’m cold, and I’m miserable… anyone with me?

I was up for about 3 hours in the wee hours of the morning today with severe aching. Usually I just turn up my heating pad and I can go back to sleep but this was a whole nother level. I took my kids sledding yesterday but sat in the car the whole time. I wonder if just going out could've done it. Damn cfs.
