You will notice you have PAWS because you will be feeling okay, and then suddenly, you feel w/d-type sick. For me, my hands and feel would feel cold; I’d get sweats and those prickly hot flashes; and I’d get diarrhea. Sometimes, I’d feel so exhausted that it seemed impossible to get through. We were out of town once and I got slammed with PAWS. Holy hell, it was tough. I was SO TIRED that I barely spoke to anyone the entire weekend…just forced one foot in front of the over. There is an absolute lack of motivation as times. Nothing seems worth the effort and you just want to sit and be one with the couch. Brain feels like an engine that just won’t turn over. That’s been PAWS for me. I’m pretty much out of the PAWS woods though…(knock on wood!)…and if I think back on how I felt a few months back, the different is huge.
