         Lupus and BP Disorder...how could I be so lucky. I've come to realize that one triggers the other and it is a vicious cycle. This past week I expierenced the worst migraine headache pain. It wasn't the throbbing behind the eyes and temple pain, it was like lightening going off in my head. It felt like the nerve receptors were sending out pain signals, one pla...

  • RA Pain sucks...

    Wednesday, September 17, 2008 | A Venting story

    I look forward to my daughters days off from work and then...I spend the entire day sleeping. She knows I am awake most of the night with my arthritis joint pain, so she takes Tristen out of the house so it is quiet and I spend the ENTIRE day asleep.  Why don't I become so exhausted during the day that I can sleep at night? I think my BP has something to do with that. It seems I suffered...

  • Wow...I had no idea how many people need help...

    Monday, September 29, 2008 | A Venting story

    For years we have talked about how our Country is failing Americans through the lack of some kind of National Health Plan. Physical medical health care is critical and yet so many are unable to get the care they need due to lack of insurance. HOWEVER, I am appalled at the state of our Nation's response to mental illness and necessary care. I cannot believe what limited benefit care, many...

  • Do you believe in Karma?

    Thursday, November 6, 2008 | A Venting story

    My daughter's husband is a true a**hole. He has not complied with the court signed settlement of assets, does not exercise his visitation rights with his son (he's seen him 4 times since March) didn't even show up for the final hearing, AND lied and said he was a student to get the minimum child support obligation of $63.00 a month. The state has had to garnish his monthly Army Reserv...

  • Damn Cold and Acid Reflux!

    Saturday, November 15, 2008 | A Venting story

    Everybody in the house has a cold, so it was only a matter of time before it got to me.  But now it is really kicking my butt. I'm using my nebulizer and doing regular breathing treatments, but having trouble breathing. I've been running a fever off and on, but that is common with my Lupus. I've been out of Nexium for several days. I have such horrible acid reflux that the c...

  • Too much time to analyze the dark hole...

    Friday, January 16, 2009 | A Venting story

    while I was sick with my cold, is what I think. I've always felt as though the Bp disorder is a dark hole I carry within mself. It never goes away, but it's a bit ike a manhole, as long as it has a sturdy cover over it (meds, rest, diet etc.), I generally don't fall in. What I've known the past three years, is that my health had become so volitale with my Lupus, it''s been...

  • Wishing I could runaway...

    Tuesday, February 10, 2009 | A Venting story

    I'm working hard on feeling better.  Spent the last two hours escaping by looking up the cost of trips on the net. I imagined myself going to Las Vegas in May to see Jimmy Buffet. I really want to see him and want to go somewhere even more. Go to Florida and go to the beach. Then I come to my senses and KNOW there is no extra cash for travel until I manage to get us in a house.
    I can'...
