Shattered I'm so sorry the pain is so bad.
Have you called your Dr. and made an emergency appointment?

Child, your rhuemy can give you a cortizone shot in a "band"
for that. It will help. Call and see if you can get in and get some help.

Christina, I'm so sorry you have a lease. How long is it before you can go back home? Will it be an entire year? I'm so sorry,
Christina. I wish we could all of us here in the forum could come and sit with you.

Cake, how are you doing?

Kiya, what's happening?

Gus, I love those pictures. They make my heart warm.

I am taking the new medicine and it is helping, but I'm mostly sleeping or snoozing. My body has to adjust to it. The neighbors started fighting and screaming at the top of their lungs and cursing each other around 7:00 a.m. yesterday. That's something they do just about every Sunday morning and sometimes through the week. They do it with their door open and it spills out right in front of my door. I waited until the fighting was over and went out and talked to the male. He was shocked and embarrassed that they wake me up all the time and that I actually said something about it. It's only been going on for six years. He apologized and said they'd shut their door the next time they get into it. I think I will have to talk to them again about it, but I'm so proud of myself to have the courage to go out there and stand up for myself. It's so hard for me to do. It's easy to stand up for someone else, but hard to do it for me.

The longer I live here the more I hate it, but I have to live somewhere.

I love you all.
