Not too much of anything
Today work was frustrating (as usual) but they made some organizational changes in management and really ticked off some people. My personal opinion is there is going to be some major conflict of interest going on between a couple of departments...which may make my job more aggravating...heck, it WILL be making my job more aggravating. The Japanese really do business in a bizarre way and it seems to cause more up hill climbs than needed. Makes me wish I would have bought a mega-millions ticket tonight, lol. I am just grateful that I am still able to work right now because I truly feel that it won't be forever due to my health with this Fibro. I continue to pray that my body will overcome this and I will be able to work until I win those millions, lol.
My daughter Autumn came over for dinner tonight with just her oldest daughter (the 2-year old twins were with Dad). We had a nice time as always. We are so very close and she is truly my best friend. She only lives a hour from my house so we are together a lot!! I wish my other daughters lived closer but I am happy I at least have my Autumn. I believe Autumn may have Fibro also. She has many of the typical symptoms and a couple other that very well may be from fibro. I guess we will have to wait and see how things go with her health for a diagnosis for her. Her walk with Jesus is growing stronger and stronger everyday. I am so grateful that my daughters are saved and look forward to my teen-age sons (hopefully very soon), turning over their lives to Jesus.
I never started the Savella medicine that I talked about in my previous journal. I am so concerned about the side effects that I thought I would wait until my next doctor's appointment and talk to him a little bit more in detail about the medicine. He really didn't give me much info about it (or about my diagnosis either) and considering I have had bouts of tachycardia, I am not so sure Savella is right for me.
I have to make a comment about that how come when my fibro pain seems to be not so bad, I will have pain from something else??? Lately I have been having dental pain (my teeth, gums, right down to my jaw it feels like!!)! It seem so unfair :( Does anyone know what I am talking about? It's like you can't win for losing.
Well I best get my self to bed and I hope and pray that all my friends here at DS and doing well and your pain is far, far, away.
Hugs and Kisses,
Carol

Carol,
TMJ is one of the side effects of fibro. That may explain your pain when your fibro eases up. Once fibro gets in, daily pain is the normal not the exception.
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is better to know the truth. Having had daily pain since April of 1987 (24 years next month) qualifies me to make that statement.
Hugs....Mike
Carol: I\'m finding that the fibro changes from week to week. I am dealing with menopause also. Luckily I work in an office and if I\'m really having a bad day either mentally or physically, I can just take it slow. I used to be one of those women who would run around the office, hurry, hurry, hurry. Not anymore. I do my work, but I try to slow down. Some days I can\'t concentrate on one thing - it is like my brain is jumping all over the place.
You just keep praying, the Lord will help you get through the day!
