The awful UTI type pain has gone off....although I still have the left side ache...have just applied some more YES ....laid on the bed seemed a little easier and I think I managed to go a little further but it was uncomfortable...almost like something stopping it going further so I didn't push it. Then I put my legs in the air pointing towards the ceiling so it might dribble up further....what a sight ... at least it made me laugh which I haven't done much recently.
Kathleen, thank you for your advice, it's a carry on to be sure...but I know that I have to get used to it and is something I will just have to do.
The shaking is horrible....it's not the kind of shake you get if you're upset or stressed.....this shake is different... hard to describe...but I will try.
It comes from deep inside and it feels like a throb, a pulse....sometimes my hands shake, other times it's just inside that shakes and no one ( unless I told them) would be aware there was anything wrong with me.
Sometimes it comes on with the UTI type pains and when this happens everything feels worse....then again sometimes it will come on out of the blue with no pains. The shakes can last 20 minutes to 2 hours....I always know when they are coming on and going off....it's like a slow build up and a slow release...they build up in waves and ease off in waves.
After an episode of shakes, if I breathe deeply I shudder...do you know that feeling when you've been crying hard and you try to take a deep breath in? like you have been sobbing? But you sort of shudder. That's how it leaves me feeling.....emotional and drained.
What is it?
I've no idea.
It's a scary feeling and very unpleasant but not painful....at the moment I'll take that rather than all the pain I've been having.
I do know for certain that it's not stress or anxiety although I have had both those things....this shaking is something else.
Last week I had a thyroid test which has come back normal.
Is this similar to your shake?
