About Me
I am the proud mommy of a 4 year old daughter & almost 2 year old son. I have a wonderful husband and we have been together for over 5 years (married for over 3 years). I have 3 tattoos & 7 piercings :-) I love to change my hair color and love the "hippy" look. My favorite time of year is Fall when all of the holiday excitment starts... I love the cool weather, smells of pumpkin pies & the food! I was a Doula (birthing assistant) for awhile but am taking a break because of my health. I won a scholarship into the Doula certification program which I am pretty proud of :-) I also completed a Natural health course at a local college with a 90% on my final last year. I also LOVE traveling and have been to Canada, The Cayman islands, Bahamas, San Juan, PR & Cancun, Mexico. I have also been all over the USA and my favorite is Nevada & the Florida Keys. I hope to soon go to France, Thailand & Egypt!

I'm so sorry to hear that you're in so much pain today. I hope that you were able to get some rest at least. I have been having terrible problems with my legs too and some times cannot even carry myself to the bathroom without the help of my hubby. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why they flare up so bad but what I do is also the pain killers and muscle relaxers (my dr refuses to give me prednisone b/c they have not been able to give me a diagnosis yet) and then I soak in a hot bath with about 2 cups of epsom salts. After that I crawl into bed with a heating pad under my hips (I have a ton of joint pain on top of the muscle pain) and with all of this combined it at least takes the edge off. I'm not sure if you've tried the epsom salts before or not but it might be worth a shot. Anyhow, I really hope you feel better tomorrow. You are in my thoughts. Hugs -Kristin

M06, hope you feel better. What can I say, been there, done that. It's great to know that you have such a supportive husband, because I also have one too, and I just find myself that I appreciate him so much more at times when he is being so helpful. Take care!

Good Luck
Hope you feel well!
