Journal

   it really doesn't seem like it has been as long as it has since I wrote in my journal.

  All the pain and spasms I was having had me so depressed. I had some in home nurses and a Pt that came to the house. They were actually to much of an inconvenience. They never came when they said . It seemed like I was always waiting fo someone. I read an article a friend sent me and it said people with spasms and fibro and Lupus can have low electrolites. I am taking 500 mg'sof magnesium and 99 mg's of Potassium. I have been on them for a mo. I still have pain but not near what it was. I am getting around much better and the two times I had some spasms they were slight and only lasted a short time. Very unusual because they were lasting for days.I don't need the help after all!! I have even been doing a few mild exercizes I could not do for a very long time.  am walkng more and hoping I will go for walks like I use to. i use to get the spasms in my heart sometimes that would really hurt pretty bad. My friend told me she had those but the DR's didn't take her seriously until she actually did have a heart attack. She is fine now too. I just had to share this because it even helped when I had a flare which only lasted a day when usually they were bad most days. So I hope you will give them a try!!! You have nothing to lose but some of that pain, actually allot of my pain!!!Ok I am finally done. If you try the Magnesium and potassium please let me know because I culd tell a difference in less than two weeks maybe one even. I was so amazed. I am sitting here with my knees dolded and no pain.  could never do that b-4!! Hugs!!  Gee whiz I lost part of my message at the top!! Don't know how I did that!!!June.

 Meeting so many new people has been very nice!!  Actually pretty soon I need to start getting out around people again. It is just easier to stay home with the old illnesses and pain. plus can't afford to do much !! Oh well, accept the things I cannot change but change what I can, right LORD!? Does anyone have more cute jokes to share? I need a few laughs and my friends in other groups enjoy them also!! To all my friends thank you for helping me thru some really rough times after my husband passed away!! Most days I am ok,but the last few days I miss him too much and am so tired of life again. Am I going backwards instead of ahead??! hugs!! June(cb)
