    Hi Jacki,
    Yes I do have two sons and you are right.One is in
    Denver and the other one is here.I won't see the
    one in Denver for Christmas.They just bought a house
    this summer and can't afford to come home.
    The lady that had the same surgery as Marv had hers done
    the first around the 5th of Nov.She is still uncomfortable but is gradually getting better.She has to
    have the other shoulder done too.
    The valium really helped me this time.I am going to
    talk to my DR about getting a script for a low dosage
    that I can take 3 times a day.Hopefully she will agree.
    So you are already decorating for Christmas.Send some
    of that Christmas spirit my way.I am sorry you are having spasms in the bladder.What do you take for
    spasms?I know you are probably a little stressed with
    Marv not feeling well.I have been doing fairly well with
    my bladder.My little devil is still with the levator.
    I am hoping it goes away someday like yours did.
    Hang in there with Marv.I feel for him.It can only
    get better.
    Hugs,
    Lynn

    Hi Jacki,
    We are lucky today.We have sunshine with temps in
    high 40's.Not bad.It is always so nice to see the
    sun.My oldest son called yesterday and told me his
    girlfriend has to work on Thanksgiving,so the two of
    us are getting together,maybe catch a movie.We can
    just sit and chat for hours.I really love that about him.So I will have a nice Thanksgiving with him.
    I hope Marv is feeling better by Thanksgiving.One of
    my husbands co-workers wife just had the same thing done
    and she is having a terrible time with the pain.I hope that is not the case for Marv.
    8 sounds like the perfect number for a nice Thanksgiving
    celebration.I am wishing you a low pain level day on
    T-day so you can enjoy!!!
    Hugs,
    Lynn

    Hello Jacki,
    I am sorry to read that you are uncomfortable today.
    I know what that stress can do to us.
    Now that Marv's surgery is over,I hope things calm
    down for you.I was a mess the week before I took my
    trip.I even called my gyn/uro and asked for something
    to calm my nerves.Bless her,she gave me some valium and
    that did the trick,I was able to maintain and be of some
    help for my step-daughter.
    I am glad to read that the surgery is over for your husband and I wish him a speedy recovery.
    It will be a very quiet Thanksgiving for us this year.
    My husband works in a Nuclear Power Plant and they are
    in what you call an"outage".I won't go into boring details but they have been working 24/7 since the first
    of Nov.and will continue until the 10th of Dec.My husband works from 5pm till 6am.So all he does is work,
    eat and sleep.I am okay with it.I am not a great lover
    of cooking a big Turkey dinner.Have done it for over
    30years and am a bit tired of it.How about you?What will
    you do Thanksgiving day?I bet you get together with
    family which is what it is all about.
    Wishing you better days.
    Lynn

    Hi Jacki,
    Just a quick note to say hello.I am back from my
    visit in Virginia Beach.It was quite a week with
    hurricane -like weather.We lost power for 16hrs.
    I am very glad to be home.
    How are you doing these days?
    Has your husband had his surgery yet?If he has I am
    sure you are very busy taking care of him.
    Let me know how you and Marv are when you get a chance.
    Hugs

    Yes I am back on.It is just too addictive.
    I am flying to Virginia Beach and staying for a week to
    help my step-daughter with her two little ones while
    daddy goes on a military assignment.I am a little
    nervous because I don't feel the greatest but maybe
    the kids will distract me from thinking about my
    woes!!!

    just get through it.I am praying for a better day for
    you tomorrow.Please vent anytime you want!!!

    Hi Jacki,
    I haven't had my hormones tested yet.My PT therapist
    was suppose to check with my uro/gyn about that,but
    nothing has been done so far.A little frustrating.
    I wish the best for Marv with his surgery.I think it
    has become quite a common surgery now.He is a young
    man so I am sure he will sail right through it.
    I am struggling with the levator spasms.They seem to
    be getting worse.I was really depressed this week
    because nothing seems to be working for me.I have a
    feeling many IC'er experience this.I am still so new
    to it all.I quess I was expecting too much too soon.
    Do you think Jacki over the years that your IC has
    leveled off,or does it just roller coaster for you?
    I really need to deal with reality so I can get rid
    on my false hopes.
    I am hoping for a comfortable Sunday for you!!!
    Hugs,
    Lynn

    I will pray that the right hormones will get you relief
    from IC.I am very interested in what the results will
    be when my hormone levels are checked.I am not counting
    on any miracles,but maybe some help to manage the
    discomfort.
    My teeth hurt a lot too Jacki.Usually it is my front
    top and bottom four teeth.I think it's sinus pressure
    for me.Sorry you have to deal with that.I just know
    one day they are going to be able to figure out how to
    treat all the ailments you have.Then Marv won't be able
    to keep up with You!!!
    We are getting tons of rain.Thank God it isn't cold enough to snow.
    Have a nice end of OCT weekend.
    Wishing the best for Marv!
    Lynn
