I'm here and sick and stressed and in pain I just need to catch a break but never seem to be able to, I just continually play catch up and I am so tired.

I can relate. I hate being on constant pain. It is the reason I started an effort to work with other people like me. Anyone on this spot I hope you will listen to my podcast to address all of these screwed up emotions. We all cope in our own way.

Hey Everyone,

I am glad that my friends are here and I can come here to touch base with everybody.

This is my third week back at work, but all in all, I feel good.

I stop by when I can. My heart goes out to those in need.

I'll be back soon.

Big hugs,
David.

Hi Everyone, the good news is I kept on swimming and made it through the day. I am not sure how at this point, but tickled to be in bed. Tomorrow I get to pick up my pain medication and I am really looking forward to the relief. Hope this finds you all doing something you enjoy. Hugs, Cathy

Hi everyone, its 1/2 past midnight here and I'm not ready for bed yet. Watched some TV but that gets boring so here I am. Had not a bad day now that I've got all my meds and been taking them for a couple days again. Tomorrow I start physio again to do core strengthening in preparation for returning to work. Hopefully it helps, not sure how it will help with sciatica nerve pain but we'll just wait and see, I spoke to the insurance guy and he says its basically up to my physiotherapist to give the go-ahead when I'm ready to start the gradual return. That was good to hear as I trust my therapist alot and he has always been very nice and helpful to me.

My heart goes out to all who are suffering and struggling - Cherry, Amy, Michelle, nrthngl4ever, jspencereds, Cathy and any I missed... big gentle healing hugs,
Lisa

New here, and in constant pain tonight. Even my hair hurts. Hopefully, tomorrow is better.

Thanks so much Lisa. I hope that your therapy goes well and you are able to go back to work soon. You are in my thoughts.
sixoftwenty I am sorry you are in so much pain and I hope tomorrow is a better day for the both of us although it sounds like you are in much more pain than I am. I truly hope you get some relief soon!

O wow and I totally missed that you are new to this support group sixoftwenty (I am slightly delusional from my low grade fever) anyways welcome to the group! The people here are really nice and supportive and helpful. This site has kept me sane through my treatments (huh a weird thing to say right after I say I am delusional and therefore not completely sane...) and there are just a lot of really nice people. So jump right into the conversations (like you have done here) and join the club, sad you have to come here but glad you came.

Good Morning,

I am so tired this morning, nothing new for me as it seems I am always tired especially if I do some cleaning at night. It has become common for me to do things later on in the evening for some reason I feel better in the evening rather during the day.

Hope all is well today

....................nevermind.

Hi everyone and welcome sixoftwenty!
I had a very restless night and am tired but my pain levels have been low for a while now so I feel good. Any improvement is so wonderful that a cold or a bad night can't bother me anymore.
I wish everyone something nice to happen today!

Hi, struggling with nerve pain flare.....hate how I don't even feel like talking. Meds aren't covering it! Time for a sleeping pill!

Hope you all have a better day!

New here, so hello, look forward to chatting ;)

sixoftwenty and myshoes - welcome!!!!!! and big hugs.

Glad you have joined us. Sorry to have met you this way but I hope this forum gives you the comfort that it has given me.

When your hair hurts you know out is a really crappy day. Training here and I am not sure of everyone else but that makes me hit like crazy. I wish all a pain free and happy day. Be blessed

Not new here, but mainly a lurker. Read all the posts, sympathize and realize I'm not alone feeling like this...helps keep me sane.

Once in a while might comment, but mostly quiet and shy, still need DS just as much as the chatters to help make it some days...
