About Me

Hi and thank you for coming across my blog! I have suffered from M.E (Myalgic encephalomyelitis) for 9 years, and I feel that it is one of the most misunderstood illnesses of our time, and that there is very little information and hope out there for people who have this ilness. My blog is about therapies I've tried, current information on M.E,my own discoveries, and ways to cope with the condition - I refuse to give up. Follow me on my journey to overcome this debilitating illness - I know that one day I will live a full and happy life, and so will you! No one should be judged for something they did not choose. I will also blog about my passions to keep you (and myself!) interested: my music (I am a professional singer),make-up and beauty tricks and tips (I also dable in make-up artistry), and my love for fashion and glamour. If you would like to follow my beauty blog you can check it out at: http://www.bluebutterflyglamour.blogspot.com I hope for this blog not to be all doom and gloom, but an uplifting experience for all! ~ Christina Follow me on twitter @Christina_MusiC

3am Wine Time

Hey guys! Well it's 3am and I'm awake. Not surprised considering the messed up sleep I've had over the past few days but I thought I'd take the opportunity to do something productive and update you all. Oh, I'm also sipping a glass of wine, had a bottle left over from my birthday and yes I know I'm not suppose to drink alcohol as an M.E sufferer (apparently it makes us even more spaced out - if that's even possible :P ) but I've allowed myself to come off my nutrition plan for my birthday weekend that just passed, so whats one more day hey?

So I had a great birthday weekend, went for dinner and cocktails with my friends and manged to go clubbing after but kept having to sit down to make sure I didn't over exhaust myself. Now usually the next day, and for the next few weeks I'd be feeling like death after such a night, but surprisingly I've not been too bad apart from the insomnia. Usually even the getting ready to go out part exhausts me, so I'm pretty chuffed that I'm not stuck in bed! I'm wondering if the insomnia is due to a pain killer called Tramadol though, as I tend to experience this when ever I use it. Anyhow, all in all it seems that things might be on the up.

I'm going to try and get further ahead with the Gupta DVD tomorrow and watch sessions 7 and find out if I have the 'Accelerator' DVD that a lot of people have mentioned to me. Yes, I'm so unorganised that I don't even know.

Just to update everyone I did quit my job last week which I wasn't happy about at all, but they were so great about it and I'm hoping it's going to help me recover. I've managed to take upon myself a few music jobs that I probably shouldn't have, but I just find it so SO hard to just not do anything. I'm always aware that time is ticking and I'm getting older with every month I let go by and it scares me that I've not yet achieved anything I actually wanted to. Anyone else feel that way?

Right so, I'm actually going to try and sleep now, and will update you with my thoughts on the rest of the Gupta DVD tomorrow once I've watched it. Also I have tried to comment back in reply to someone on a previous blog, but it won't let me and keeps telling me to sign in - hopefully I can get this sorted. Before I go here are some pictures from my bday, it was a fabulous night:
