Just tired. Always tired.
May. 13th, 2026 02:21 pmI did three things today (one of them a quite large and physically onerous errand). I should be proud of myself, but instead, I'm just tired.
My knee shows no sign of improving (the opposite, maybe), but my doctor is taking my concerns very seriously. She referred me to some imaging tests, so hopefully, pretty soon we'll be able to resolve whether this is inflammation caused by injury or impairment caused by (likely autoimmune) inflammation. It's just that in the meantime, everything takes twice as long and hurts three times as much.
I used to say I'm really practiced at being sick, but I think with this one, I've maybe hit my limit. Unless back then was worse than I'm remembering.
