Thanks hun , means a lot, it really does

Thanks Nammu I am so grateful to have such support

Me too Laurie I hope your doing better

I hope so it’s just sucking me dry atm I know my T will be very helpful, he has been for almost 7 years

Thank you. (((Hugs)))

I'm so sorry about the suckage. I'm just glad you can come here and talk about it, and that you trust us enough to do so. Hope the depression goes away very soon! Thinking of you and sending you many ((((HUGS)))).

Christina

I’m thinking of you daily. I’m here if you need support.

Thanks so much I’m glad I have you guys !

Awww thanks hun , I just need to catch a break

Okay so more fun stuff

My left shoulder has been bothering me for a couple months , last night I pulled laundry out of the dryer , holy hell !!!! I couldn’t even breathe. Feels like something torn, let’s hope it’s not rotator cuff , ugh

Already had an appt with my GP to discuss my food intake since my labs are way off ( thanks for the visit anorexia )

So got X-rays and prednisone :0 steroids and bipolar don’t play well together but wanna see if that will fix me up. Hopefully I won’t wind up mixed , please nooooo nooooo nooo

I’m pathetic

More one thing I am depressed yet I have no filter when talking , ugh I can’t go mixed I just can’t

So sorry to hear this, Christina. It's awful when everything goes wrong at once. You're a lovely person. Please be gentle on yourself, no matter what happens. You didn't ask for this, and are doing your best to manage it.

Take it all one difficulty at a time, if you can.

Just deal with the thing right in front of you.

It's hard to think when we feel like this, so don't try. I find it helps to write on a calendar, in large letters and in a place where I'll see it clearly, the appointments I've made / calls I'm going to make / essential bills that need paying etc. Then I can relax a little. Not feel so bewildered by it all. Let some time pass.

No, you don't want to go mixed....ya really need to eat. Lack of nutrition can play havoc with us.

HUGS Christina!!

Hugs!!!

Hoping for no mixed and shoulder to feel better!

Ugh! Sometimes it’s just one thing after another
Sending you lots of hugs and I do hope things start to improve for you! (And no mixed moods!)

You are not pathetic! You’re in pain, both physical and mental. I will be sending good vibes and hugs your way that you don’t go mixed.

I'm sorry I haven't been around through all of your tough times, Christina. I have taken some long breaks. The last time I was on the boards for a good amount of time I looked for you and you were away then. Now I am catching up on the terrible time you are still having. I really care for you, and I hope the pain gets better soon. Weekly sessions will help so much!

Thanks hun

I’m glad to see you back

Thanks everyone so much !!!

All the support really helps me more than you know

Saw my Rheumatologist today , visit was over and he gave me a hug .... wtf ? Wasn’t a creepy vibe but I have no idea what the hell that was about

My shoulder is worse today , ugh !!!

*hugs* avoiding the shoulder area. heal well, you deserve it

X-rays show just normal “aging “ I hate that term!! But at least nothing broken. Likely need a mri , it’s a pain to take out my piercings for it. Not to mention the cost.

Today the pain is so bad I honestly can’t use my left arm.

Was given steroids to see if they help , hate them !! they dont mix well with my particular Bipolar soup

*sigh*

Was steroid shot an option?

Yes if oral steroids don’t help and most likely that won’t be offered until an mri is done because X-rays only show bone. I just hope I don’t have to see a Ortho , I don’t need another big bill.

Problem after problem after problem.

Gah me too. Healthcare cost is remarkable isn't it?
