What Do Your EF's Feel Like? Part 2

[woodsgnome]

a_bunny asked:  "Does any of this sound familiar?"

Unfortunately, all of it does. The encouraging part is recognizing the ef's when they happen and/or shortly thereafter. The discouraging side includes the repetitive nature of the reactions/symptoms, not to mention the unexpected triggers that might emerge on short notice. In my case, it makes me want to hide and never come out again  .

Recently I managed to recognise an EF before it really hit, so I was able to head it off. My T said that would come sometime. That's encouraging too.

I agree woodsgnome.
And the repetitive nature of it doesn't even make it easier ...it feels like the first time all over again. Then when I'm out of it (can take days to stabilise) i feel like it will never happen again .....until the next time that is ..
Yes blueberry being able to manage before full blow is very encouraging

I think I'm back in a different EF though. I don't even really want to take the steps to get out of it. Oh well. Wanting to will come again.

Blueberry i can understand that ...being our own nurse when we are the patient makes no sense at all...
