Am I Wimping Out?

[Gummiebear 0]

I have Lupus and sometimes when it acts up I have arthitis in parts of my body or sometimes my entire body. Today its in my knees and I dont feel like I can walk hardly at all. Plus I have been sleeping almost all day long this last week because I get really tierd. So I havent been getting much exercize at all. I wonder if I should try to suck it up and gimp my way through my walks or if that it anti-productive really. I am sure alot of people have arthitis and try to exercize anyway. Am I being a wimp? lol

No, you're not being a wimp. Better to rest than to exacerbate your lupus or you will end up hurting for longer.

What does your doc think? Have you tried Water exercise? That might help. Hope you find a solution! :cry
