I haven't been able to keep up with all the journals and messages but I am trying hard. I have probably the worst flare up in my life these last 2-3 weeks with no relief. Now when I get up in the morning my arms and hands just spasm and jerk. I don't know what it is but it is like that for a full hour every morning. If I am holding a cigarette I will drop it, if I am holding a cup of coffee it trembles and spills coffee all over. I have to use my cane now all the time because I am afraid of falling.

Ok enough whining. How are all my special friends . If it wasn't for you I don't know what I would do.

This whole pain thing is a day to day process and every day I am wating for a new symptom, to appear. It is interesting living life on the edgesmiley-wink.gif

I have been staying in bed almost 2 weeks now just so I have some relief.

Sorry if I don't get to all of you but I am trying.

Luv ya Laurie

Holy crap, Laurie! Whining? My God, I\'m so so sorry for what you are going through. Get to a doctor FAST, please!!! Your symptoms scare the crap out of me!

Have you called the doc? Have you tried a muscle relaxer? Have you ever had spasticity before? Are you withdrawing from anything? (spasticity is another happy symptom of methadone withdrawals!)

PLEASE get to a doc... It sounds like it could easily be pressure on your spinal cord. Please? What if waiting causes damage? I\'m going to be worrying about you, along with heaving all the prayers and good energy I can your way.

Again, I\'m so sorry for your suffering. I wish there were a way I could help; this situation of yours scares me. Please know you are in my thoughts every day. Hoping and prayer you get relief soon. Love.

I am so sorry you hurt so badly. If you want to whine, you go right ahead and do it. If you can go see the doctor. You shouldnt have to suffer at all. I know they can\'t always fix us, but they can make us comfortable. Love ya.......Julie
