Oh CJ, it makes perfect sense for you to look into things that help you in the here and now, instead of pushing and hurting. When the asthma, migraines, etc were keeping me down, I felt awful and that I should be able to push through the pain and other limits. No. No no no no no.
There's a big difference between working within limits and giving up. Personally, the hard part was accepting the limits. I should exercise more, but most exercise aggrivates my asthma, even walking. When I get a migraine, I have to take the meds and lie down, because pushing through the pain will just make it last that much longer.
One thing I've admired about how you're dealing with this is how you look for more solutions instead of giving up.
