Okay so I have been all big and bad since i got my DX. I thought I could conquer all. I have been med free aside from the vitamins and minerals and occasional Naproxen for migraines. But recently I have started a whole new set of symptoms and i am getting scared. First i started off with ear aches and then Migraines more often than usual. Two weeks ago I got the Migraine with aura. I panicked when I went blind.
After taking the naproxen for a week for the migraine which would not go away I ended up with constipation. Dr. Took me off my naproxen and gave me something to help clear up the C word.
Now I have constant brain fog and I am experiencing pain in my hands arms and legs like you wont beleive. Dr. wont give me my meds back. Called Rummie Dr. today and they said i have to go through testing again. So now what to do what to do. Haven't seen rummie in 6 years because I have been taken care of by PCP.
Feel like I am falling into a pit. I called into work again today. Afraid bosses are going to get mad. But of course they can't fire me because I am the only one that knows how to do payroll and take care of all the paperwork. But how ccan I function if I am in such a fog. They are from india and do not understand this illness. even thought another employee has it also.
So now I am here venting again and hoping to come out of the fog enough to get up and do something productive today. Problem is I find myself over doing it when I have a little gumption. Then that makes things worse for the next day.
just wanna be where i was 8 years ago and able to work more than 20 hours a week.
VEnting sorry it is so long. Scared I will have to go on mes that make it impossible for me to function. I am the only one my girls have.

I work too and I understand why you had to call in sick. When that happened to me, I took a week off and could have used a lot more.
I hope you can get through the new testing OK and hang in there in the mean time.
Feel better!
