I am a Carrier and I am still here. I do what I have to do each time I get sick I go into a mode of emergency. I know what steps to take and sometimes I can head it off and sometimes it gets me so down I end up in the hospital. The future is bright with new medicine so you just be strong and have faith. If you need me I am here. I have been a carrier for four years now.

I back slid into a sick way of feeling and thinking. I will not be a victim. I will love myself from all depths.I will improve myself and stop thinking i have the power over others to change. I will let go and let god take over. this situation is bigger that me. I have no power over this pain and i need god as i understand him to take the reigns. I will not ask why my H does this but why do i allow myself to become the weekness in his sin. I am but just a woman that loves and god will love me,my children will love me,and I with strength will love myself. I will remember that easy story of the footprints in the sand and see that he is carrying me through this. I am in tears but i have to let go of this and let my GOD lead me to where i need to be. I cant allow the actions of others dictate my well-being! God grant me the serenity...

He gets a terrible cough; he coughs all day and all night, making it hard for him to sleep, and his nose runs.I've tried every allergy medicine, OTC and RX, and none of them affect his...

I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
