Why am I not happier? Mood
Saturday, October 24, 2009 | A Frustrating story
My asthma is acting up again due to the untreated sinus infection which has been untreated due to stomach issues. I have started live acidophilus via yogurt which has additional acidophilus added to it. I have also started prilosec 2 instead of 1 per Dr. Yest started antibiotics.  I am so tired . Yest I took 2 naps. I also have no appetite due to infection. Of course now that I have slowed down pain is better but the more I move the more it flares . I am beginning to lose hope. I am just tired of always dealing with issues, problems w/ disability( now resolved hopefully) proceeding with arbitration againist hosp even though I don't want to(more work) I have been advised that I need to  so other pts are not treated like I was & also cause I had a fall which caused considerable pain. I get so easily frustrated. I am doing so little compared to what I used to do before injury yet much more than last week. I just found out I am off of work until mid Dec which is good cause i really need it. It seems that PT is really wearing me out & the excercises are so much harder than they used to be & I feel then so much more. I had to force myself to take it easy today. I need a day off mentally & physcally. I have been staying up way too late to get some down time which is just backfiring on me. My house is a mess & I am tired of it but i know I need to let it go. It just seems like everything is always & has been so hard for the past 2 years. I just want the stress to stop & to have 1 day or even a few hours were I could feel good.

    Laura - I'm totally with you hon - I never get my house clean now and as for anything else I feel like I'm going in circles. I am home in bed with a bug today. I made it up to the store for some basic stuff and came home and went back to bed. I start PT (water therapy) next week - looking forward to it but don't want to expell energy to go - does that make sense???? I'm hoping to get a new wheel chair within a year -I hope! :) I hope you feel better hon - Hang in there and email anytime! CathyM and Otis (Otis sends his gentle hugs and licks) :)
