This might seem like kind of a weird one. For a few months now, I’ve had the worst flare in both of my underarms. It hurts really badly. There are multiple bumps and open sores in my underarms (both the arm pit area and my actually arm). The pain is so bad, that I can’t lift up my arms sometimes. I have gauze and tape all up in there because there is so much drainage. I can’t reach very far. Even small things like reaching for the kitchen light switch (lol ours has such a stupid placement), reaching up for a glass or bowl in a high cabinet, washing my hair, putting my hair up in a ponytail, making my bed, getting my laundry out of the machine, reaching to scratch my shoulder or back, hugging people… gosh, I don’t even know… just little everyday things. I can’t sometimes.
I love this picture. First of all, sunsets on the beach make me happy! That’s not the point, though. Seeing myself when I could just freely raise my arms up like that really motivates me to stick to this diet with hopes to get better! I can’t wait to be able to do that again!
