- My day started around 3:30 and not because I was well rested and ready to go. The only time I don't feel pain is the few hours that Trazodone allows me to sleep. I've come to dread being awake.So the battle begins...start with coffee and...
- ...there's always Raspberry Swirl frozen yogurt. That's all my excitement on Friday night.What is everyone else doing this weekend?Frozen yogurt hugs,Cherry
- I can barely keep up with welcoming all the new folks we have today! I'm really struggling with pain right now, so if I've missed anyone, forgive me.I look forward to getting to know all of you. You have found a wonderful, new family!Hugs of...
- Well, I'd had enough of meds that don't help and having to deal with side effects. So...I got mad and ripped off my pain patch this afternoon. I'm still taking my breakthrough meds, but I wonder if I'll be feeling different from abruptly stopping...
- I got up at 1:45 this morning with such neck pain. I keep a fan on all night and I think it must having been blowing on me. It's been 45 minutes and hasn't begun to feel better.Yup...gonna be a longass day...Air hugs,Cherry
- What a start to my day...grrrr. I was up at 3:00, as usual, slowly taking on the familiar battle of getting pain simmered down, coffee quota filled and getting myself dragged into the shower.After a few hours and a bit of success, I decided I...
- Does anyone know what types of health problems can be caused by mold? I know about the obvious respiratory issues, but wondered if it could cause anything else?I know...I'm grasping at straws here.Cherry
- Good morning, I posted about my recent distress in a smaller, new group and didn't receive one response. I'm trying not to take it personally...lol! On monday, I got a steroid shot to treat tendonitis in my right shoulder. After a few hours,...
- I really did it to myself this afternoon. After 2 days of terrible pain following my steroid shot, I was a little more comfortable today. So...I did way too much limbing, reaching, sorting, washing and tagging.My back and neck went into spasm and...
- After 2 days of terrible pain following the steroid shot in my shoulder, I was a little better today. So instead of taking it easy and encouraging my body to continue to heal, I gave a haicut (don't tell my doc) then spent the afternoon preparing...
- .....everything gets thrown in that bucket until it becomes acute. My PCP has been doing this to me since I started seeing her 2 or 3 years ago. I've been telling her that my upper back (not spine) and shoulder have been killing me for the last...
- I have watched my Dad slowly lose his short-term memory over the past few years and my Mom is not that terribly far behind him! They're in their 80"s so it's no surprise. They're more active then I am and stay very busy. It's a little...
- I've been trying to endure pain that is getting worse every day. I have two new issues that are pretty much ruining every waking moment. Each should be treaed, but nohing has been done, yet.I talked to the nurse at the end of the day and all the...
- Good morning, I've been up since 1:30 am...grrrrr. That could be a new record for me to decide to start drinking coffee and give up on sleep. My neck has caused pain for years, but lately, has been out of control. I mentioned to my doc last week...
- I'm trying to struggle through another day of unmanaged pain. I called my doctor's office first thing this morning to leave a message for the nurse to call me. It's after 2:00 and I haven't heard from her, yet.Last week, I left a message with my...
