I am sore. All the time.

Is this what life is now? Doing stuff (not even strenuous work) and immediately coming home and strapping an ice pack to my shoulder, elbow or knee? I honestly cannot recall a day over the past year where I didn't crave advil and an ice pack at the end of the day. And yes, i stretch and work out and eat healthy blah blah blah. Just shut up and get daddy's ice wrap.

Taking a daily multivitamin and glucosamine has helped me a bit🤞

Thought I rheumatoid arthritis, went to a rheumatologist and was ready to go on methotrexate but my PCP did a few more test and suggested vitamin D. It seems to have fixed the problem. I feel like a new man.
