update on veins I forgot to mention below Mood
Thursday, May 28, 2009 | A Positive story
I had doppler scan there was nothing serious in left leg What happened was I bruised or injured a vein in top of skin and it had a knot was blue and sore swollen but after staying off my feet and wearing support hose and no drinking caffiene and putting warm wet compresses on spot its healing thank God its not in pain unless its touched hard looks yellow now knots gone down . I do believe fluid retention and perscriptions I was taking made it worse. Im on no meds but over counter now so its better . Maybe I should be the dr haha , we know our bodys  better than drs do. my pains are bearable off meds but I want energy to lose weight and help my legs and pains . I lost 11 lbs so far pushing myself to work hard but I still have messed up sleep frm meds i was on sleep half the day can only work afternoon then im exhausted and sore again . Forgot what feeling rested was . I do sleep deep when im asleep just dont ever feel rested though.dr screwed me up on meds but she had given me perscription for vitimins eventhough all my blood work was great a blessing there at 55 not haveing high cholestrol or blood presure or debetic are a blessing. so im counting the good things and trying to overcome the tiredness and pains
