PMS in a Handbasket--Don't be afraid, just bring us food... Part 22

[debbiedoo]

I am having a horrible day. I just want to cry and crawl under my covers for the rest of the day.

 

[Tiffer]

Is it carryover from last night? You can come crawl under my covers.

I have fibromyalgia with a question of MS. I waaaaaay overdid at the meet and was on my feet much too long and often and didn't get enough sleep so it threw my body into a killer flare. I see the Dr. tomorrow because I finally said enough and now as much as I don't want to I am going to load up on thousands of pills and try to manage this the way I should. I have just been resisting because this is not the path I want to go down in life, depending on handfuls of meds to make it through a day. I thought I could just deal with it and the pain but its too hard and its getting worse.

I am glad you are going to see DR tomorrow, I hope things will get better for you

4's ahve you ever taken baclofen? It worked wonders for me when was having a hard time with pain. Ive been doing better but tried raking some leaves the other day, and then carrying in a large load of firewood last night in a laundry basket has my body screaming. I have those hot burning knots all over my torso right now. I got my hands injected last week and they are a lot better. Going to podiatrist today at 10:45 so my feet can get better. Then I am coming home to call the rheumatologist at UAB to get an appt. with him so I can deal with the rest of my body. Im only 34 and feel like im 65.

teo, I was so bummed when I found out that you had really considered surprising us at the meet and then couldn't. I hope that things are better for you very soon.

If you ever want to talk I'm around. You know my number.

Feel better 4's. I tried to take it easy on the trip, but still came home with an aching back.


I'm really struggling right now over a few things. I'm tired of complaining and think that I just need to hide in my shell until I'm better and have some things sorted out. I love you all.

Hi Snowy!



I agree, one is enough. I think I might find him some books about Disney. He regularly checks out everything they have in the library, and I found tons of stuff on Amazon. I'm lucky that he likes to read, because books are a gift I never mind buying. He has a big bookshelf crammed with books, and I know he'll keep most of them for a long time (unlike the buckets of "fad" toys that he was over within a month or two).

ETA: He's also started getting into classic lit books, so that's always an option.

That's what I was going to suggest, some classic stories. Also does he like horror books? It was right around his age that I first read Stephen King.

Did I mention it is COLD here???

Welcome back to the Great Cold North! I had to go to a program this morning, I was sleepy and FREEZING! Not a good combo.

I'm getting nauseous from the paint fumes........

Open a window!

Hi Ya Tig and Merle

Tig...don't hide from us...you are not complaining..you are sharing with people who love you and want to help.

 

[sumrmist]

yeah Tig get back out here.....did you not read my 5k post about how we need each other? Its on page 7501 go read a refresher course !!

 

[1Prince2Princesses]

Awww, Tiff. He's probably spent the entire morning wondering if he should've married you instead (and thinking about the tight sweater).


4's, if taking meds is going to help you live your life pain free (or at least with less pain), then take them.

I already informed DH that I am going somewhere the weekend of my birthday....now to choose a place

 

[Tiffer]

If you ever want to talk I'm around. You know my number.

Thanks. I am just an idiot, not much to talk about. Just a bunch of I told you so's.

 

[1Prince2Princesses]

Tig, none of that. We're your friends and we love you, so lean on us for a bit.

Tiff, did you see the post I made yesterday about the dream I had about you? If not, it's good for a laugh. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1054008&page=7506 112585, about halfway down.

 

[sumrmist]

no one ever dreams about me....

I'm dreaming about you right now.

OK, I guess I should head out to work. One saving grace is my boss has fibromyalgia real bad so she knows how it is. When I get in I'll just let her know I am not doing well today and she will not make me do so much. That will help some.
I also made Ty a Drs. appointment because he's sleeping all the time and I don't mean that typical teenager sleepyness. I'm concerned about mono or some other effect from the shingles. They want to see him at 3:15 this afternoon.

Tig- I get out of work shortly after 2 if you want to call, ok.

See you kiddos later!

I did and I got a kick out of it.

That you won't get from me. And sometimes having someone to cry to helps.

Thanks guys. I had something kind of hurtful happen with someone I thought was a friend, which kind of threw me for a loop. And I was already pretty down. I'm going into the "why try if nothing is ever good enough" phase. Not a good place to be, especially when I really need to get my head out of the sand and deal with things here at home. Enough rambling...I'm going to take a nap.

I have my phone if anyone needs me. Tiffer, please don't hesitate to call if you want or need to.

 

[sumrmist]

No I told you so's from me either tiffer. I have a story I should share with you sometime. I live with regret on my own. I sure dont need people dishing an I told you so at me so I would never do that to anyone.

 

[sumrmist]

off to the shower...have to be at foot dr at 10:45.
