My foot pain

[cjsmith]

Just for a change, I will let my low blood sugar write an entry. Here it is.

--------------------

I think it would be a good idea for everyone who knows how to solve my feet to have a chance to try. The line forms to the left. I am guessing that the line is already long enough that each person gets about, oh, 48 hours. During which, of course, I am still working full time, I am still working late, I am still flying, I am still feeding my cats and doing my laundry -- in short, I am not suspending the living of my life. Each person who knows what's best for me gets what's left of that 48 hours. Oh, and you get to fund your ideas. It's only fair. I funded mine.

Go for it.

Wow, exercise to *get rid of asthma*? That's a new one on me. (I've heard the "exercise to get rid of menstrual cramps", and fool that I was, I believed it for quite some time. Took ages to recognize that fitness made my monthly pain worse.)

I think they're trying to convince themselves that if they had a health problem they'd get over it quickly -- unlike, apparently, everyone else with that same problem. The Universe, they want to believe, is fair and kind, they are in control of everything that affects them, and anyone in pain is keeping herself there somehow.

Asshats. Because they're afraid. I think.

it seems to be the theory of exercise will make my lungs stronger. The fact that exercise usually sends me into an asthma attack seems to fly right over some people's heads.

I wonder what Roosevelt did. He apparently had some major asthma as a child, and he thought up some kind of exercise plan to take that into account and not trigger attacks. I don't think his asthma kept bothering him throughout his life, though, so either there IS some magical "make your lungs stronger" idea or else he just kinda outgrew it.
