As I wrote you in a private message here earlier, rose, I'm not doing great today. I said "Chronic Kidney Disease is stopping oxygen to get to my extremities and nerves there are dying. Mostly in my feet so far, but doctors say my hands are going to go, too." I know you know how that feels from your own experience with your physical health. Thanks for posting your note to self. I want to use it to get me through today, too.

Sorry Muji it is hard. I did respond that I wear gloves and socks to help. There is this cream I use for raynaud's. My doctor gave me but I don't use it a lot

Hi :)
I don’t know how I missed this one (these migraines really have me foggy sometimes)

Thank you for posting this
I wish I could write more today, thank you for being such a kind friend

Big hugs <3 <3 <3

Aww. Migraine are awful

Lilmissy how is your headache lately?

i have been struggling since we had covid a few weeks ago and I am extremely tired, my pain levels i thought could not get higher have been a lot higher with new pain, its all over pain like with fibro and bad like a flare but its on top of the fibro, the fibro is in teh nerves and this is the muscles. My Dr said that its still from the covid. I also struggle so hard to stay awake and struggle to sleep due to the pain, Last night was 330am that i finally dozed off. Also my blood pressure and blood sugars are a lot higher since covid and my Dr said it takes timte o come down after. I hate covid :(

How are you doing Rose?

Oh Angela that sad. I pray that you get better soon.

I am in pain and no not because of COVID. But remember I have scleroderma, sjorgen and RA and raynaud's since last year with other illness. But I am managing. Today I spoke to my nurse coach which was good. And I have been resting and watching TV.

I don't know you but I offer a virtual hug as, apparently we are still hanging on after a s***storm of a year. Happy New Year!

Rose, Thank you, it has been very rough, and i am getting terrified of my eye surgery Feb 10th. i feel like backing out. I get sick just thinking about it, but everyone tells me i have to do it and take the risk of it helping me because chances are it will help my vision a lot and i am out of options without it. But i am so scared i feel like just calling and cancelling. What if i get my hopes up for nothign and it does NOT improve my vision and i stil can not drive or read a book or normal print or font? What if i am still legally blind? (my glasses help me to see enough to get by for 150 percent on laptop and seeing tv somewhat etc I am just terrified.

Hi Rose,
The migraines have been super bad, I’m a little more functional today so far (knock on wood)

Hope you are doing okay & everyone else too

Big hugs <3 <3 <3

Thanks countingmyblessing. I like your name

Angela I understand how you feeling as I am facing my own health challenges. I will be praying for you. Whatever you decide I am hear for you. Sometimes I tell myself if I don't try I will not know and if I try and it works then I am glad I did try. If it doesn't work then I am where I was but glad that I tried. Not telling you to or not to but I am here along side with you

Awesome lilmissy small changes are awesome to me
