It has been tough... Mood
Friday, May 2, 2008 | A General Update story
I have had a tough few weeks. Basically sleeping is all I have done. I have NO energy again and anything I do is too much. Even taking a shower makes me tired again. I feel now that my massages are not even working...yes they are helping the sore and stiffness but they are not helping the overall body fatigue. The brain fog is back and the room is spinning again. Even the husband says I look pailer than usual. (I am already pasty white so image me even whiter) I do not want to leave the house even when I have to and I know that is not good. I wish this would stop!

    So sorry that you are having a rough time. What are the docs telling you? Fatigue by itself is bad enough but with the pain and the vertigo, I can't imagine what you are going thru. I hope something happens to give you relief soon. Sending hugs and prayers your way, Anni

    BIG HUG>>> its so hard to go thru what you are going thru. Its scary, and the part that I really hate is when the room starts to spin. People who never had the weakness and feeling tried dont understand how after alot of sleep someone could still have those feelings. I understand what you are going thru and hope you can hang in there and you feel better soon. keep in touch!!! ((((HUG))))

    O sweetie I have been so worried about you!!!! When I didn't hear from you for so long I began to panic! What do the doctors say about what has been going on with you?? I know the pain , I know not getting enough sleep, or feeling as if i can never get enough sleep or wanting to do nothing but sleep. But he pain I am in all the time just won't let me get the sleep my body is needing. That is one of my biggest triggers of my migraines. Oh I pray you get feeling better soon. I hate seeing on of my good friends feeling so bad. Traci

    is it possible you accidentally fell into a puddle of white-out? That may explain your color.
