Trying to Stay Warm with a Chronic Illiness

September 19th, 2008

Living with a chronic illness I have to be careful what I wear. I wear pants with socks all the time. I have to always wear some kind of sock, hose, or tights. If I don’t wear them I pay with a lot of pain. Once in a while I get a big idea that I don’t need socks or pants and I pay with pain. I really like wearing Tights in the winter time because they help me stay warm. If I’m warm I’m not in as much pain. Finding different styles and color makes wearing tights and socks fun. I’ve noticed lately they have tights without the feet. Hue has some pretty wild colored tights. One pair is dark blue with black swirls. It’s nice to look at, but not my style. I prefer the solid color tights. Everyday I wear socks because I spend a lot of time indoors. I like different colored sock because it adds personality. I’ve have some silly Christmas socks with reindeers on them for the holidays.

    I have fibromyalgia and definitely understand what you are saying about staying warm to prevent some pain. I’ve sat, a lot of this summer, here in the South with a wool shawl or blanket on me. A blanket even stays in the car to lay over my lap. I hate when I have to wear a dress and can’t wear my socks or tights. My husband is very hot natured so I stay cold most of the time.
