When that happened to me I rested, quit talking, stopped eating

Hope you get well soon.

Thanks! Ann & carolela, for the addvice. I dont have any of the face stuff. mine for the last 4 years has only effected my limbs. it was more like my heart was beating in my thoarth. it feels like something is stuck their. but I don't have trouble breathing. I was on the phone all morning long thats when it happen. I can't believe this disease is it not enough that I can't walk or lift no it's gonna effect my talking too! I ran out of Ins. the end of dec. the doc. tried to give me meds for at least 6 months but Ins. would only let me get the one month at a time. waiting for obama care to kick in. I figured I had this for so long without meds a couple more months wont hurt.
