I'll pray too. Nothing is worth more pain, even T-Day. Buy an
already cooked turkey at the deli counter and be done with it. YOU are much more important than a meal!!! I'm in a bad flare myself but not like you. Can you call your doc & get a 'script over the phone?
Get to the ER if the above doesn't work.
Love & prayers

I agree with Alexandra, get a precooked turkey, precooked potatos, canned veggies, storebought buns, and some pretty napkins! I'm sorry you are going through so much fatigue and pain. Please remember it's just another day, and your girls will be happy that you are able to be with them.

please listen to everyone and buy a meal cooked some where or just go out for dinner.. last year I COOKED MY LAST BIG DINNER. it was perfect, home made breads and muffins, 2 kinds of stuffing, a ham and a turkey, because some folks don't like turkey 10 home made pies.. 4 hot veggies sweet pot. and mashed relish tray lets just say all the trimmings. when we sat down to eat, i was so exhausted from 2 days of cooking guess what I could not eat, i went to the sofa and just l crashed no one even noticed while they were all eating until the meal was over... so don't kill yourself.. keep it simple and save your health.. i will keep u in my prayers..

Everyone is so right! Get the precooked meal, buy the turkey TV dinners if you have to, after all, the day is supposed to be about giving thanks, and there isn't much to be thankful for in killing yourself to cook a meal! I'm sorry you are in such pain, please do call your dr or go to the er. I hope this ends quickly, and you feel much better. Blessings and hugs

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
