And I can't take pain pills. that contain codeine. I am so tired of being. in pain I don't know. what to do I am also having. horrible. headaches. I try laying. down but that does not help. when I get up the room starts spinning My mom checked My blood sugar. this morning. and it was in the 50s. I am also having. sharp pains . in my right side all I want is for my pain to ease or go away I hate being. in pain all of the time.

Tabby, do your blood sugars usually run so crazy? If not, get to the ER. Blood sugar fluctuations can occur when infections get worse. Maybe you need to be on IV antibiotics.

I'm so sorry you're going through this- my prayers are with you. I hope you get some relief soon!

tabby, sorry you're having such a tough time. Maybe try some alleve, not that it will take the pain away, but might help you relax enough to sleep. you should ck witn your drs. about pain meds without tne codeine. It's awful to suffer like that.

I'm sending prayers that you get some relief soon and hopefully some much needed sleep.

Hugs,

    So mad at Xfinity!  They're trying to charge me $115 per month for the same service I had been paying $50 the last four years. I took the equipment to UPS for shipping and cancelled my subscription today!  Next door was a cookie shop called Crumbl. I had heard of it before but never went in until today. I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

    I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field. I was trying to get out of teaching and I feel so devastated. I felt this crushing feeling when I signed the paperwork and when I was in the meetings. I know that sounds so dramatic but it is how I felt. It...
