Never Cake, never!!!!!!!! You are the central hub your family surrounds. You keep everyone going. Don't let those thoughts cross your mind, dear heart.

[lizardlady]

Cake, I agree with Jan. Your family depends on you. They'd fall apart if you weren't around. A bunch of the rest of us would feel pretty crappy too!

[lizardlady]

Cold front finally moved through so I'm better. That means pain is at it's usual "background" 3 or 4 instead of the 8-9 it was Sunday.

[January]

I go back to the dentist today to have two more teeth removed. After that, there will only be four more left. I'm almost there if I can just hang in there. Say a little prayer for me today, please.

Cake, I think many of us think that at times. But it's not true. Its depression lying to you. Don't let it have power, don't let it talk that way to you! Hugs!!!

So as I don't forget anyone, My brain feels like an bowl of scrambled eggs in the making Gentle hugs to all

Sorry I haven't been around much I am still pretty non verbal

I'm struggle with not falling back into some unhealthy bad habits that I have struggle with in the past. I haven't given is as I have over 3 years of no self harm (cutting) and almost a year of not being actively anorexic... Daily struggle with both , but thus far I am just sitting on that proverbial ledge.

Seems just about everyone is in a struggle with Fibro . With situations in life, being overwhelmed by pretty much everything, myself included.

I don't know how to untangle things in my own small bit of the world so no grand words of advice other than to be kind to yourselves, always.

Every single person here is needed , loved , has things to offer no one else has.

[January]

It's so good to hear from you, Christina. I have missed you.

I'm doing well. The dentist thinks he can remove all the remaining teeth at the next appointment. Oh, I hope he's right!

I am surviving on mushy things and I got a little, tiny food processor to help with meat and vegetables. I just got it, so I'll have to play with things for a while to see the best way to use it. In the meantime, hurrah for mush and mashed potatoes!

[cakeladie]

I hear you Jan I had surgery on my jaw when I was 17. I had to eat mushy stuff or liquids for 6 months it was hell and I was going I to my senior year of high school.

It's good to hear from you Christina I have missed you. I have been keeping to myself a lot. Not feeling well and just so darn tired of being sick. And these migraines need to stop my rhemy to me to place the pain patches on certain areas and that should help.

I do have some good news. My son has autism and mild retardation and has been really struggling. He sees a psychiatrist every 4-6 weeks and I finely found a psychologist that takes our insurance. He is talking to us more and to himself which is normal for him. After my dad died he kinda went non verbal. He still has issues and I don't like his psychiatrist but he does take our insurance so it is what it is.

Flaring this week. Most likely due to recent stress. So glad tomorrow is Friday!

[cakeladie]

I hope you start feeling a little better by Saturday. You have been looking so hard for a horse and we have all been excited to be on the search with you.

Try and rest until the horse gets there

Sending you lots of hugs from very windy California

[January]

My gums are throbbing. It's back to scrambled eggs and mush, although not at the same time. Maybe I tried to do too much too soon....

My knees are very swollen and hurt. Hopefully the medicine I had to take for my mouth will help my knees.

I'm sorry for complaining.

[cakeladie]

Hi guys I am pretty down right now I have had 8 seizures since last night. I am waiting for hubby to get home so I can take a shower it's not safe for me to take one when he is not home

[cakeladie]

Sorry but I also meant to say I hope everyone is doing ok. Maybe a roll call?

[lizardlady]

Hope you got to take your shower Cake.

Checking in.

[cakeladie]

I got to take a shower but we had a lot of problems with my daughter and her boyfriend

[January]

((((( Cake ))))) I'm so sorry you've had the seizures. Do you need to call your Dr.? Please be sure and let us know what is happening.

I'm here. I went with a friend running errands on Sat. and walked a lot. My feet and ankles are so swollen I can't get any of my shoes on except my slip on house shoes.

[Kiya]

Roll call - present, but exhausted. Migraines continue. IBS and fibro flares continue. Saw dr - didn't expect much, but it still hurts to have her just shrug at me when my bones are on fire, my head pounding, and the bottom of my vision is changed to orange. (I thought it was important when headaches/migraines change?) My gray cat was orange.... ummm.. she called in a new migraine med - can't remember it.
Anyone heard of or try "Enteragam" prescriptive food for IBS-D? I want to look into it. Dr just shrugged. Started seeing a naturopath clinic (interns) and will start a new supplement Tues.
For fun, I start paint class tonight and drawing class tomorrow. (I have an education award I need to use up before it expires this summer).

(((((Cake)))) please take good care of yourself- so glad your son is doing better!
(((((Jan))))) Also take good care and still a pocket rider for your medical apnts!
(((((Liz)))))) horse?
(((( any one I missed ))))) do take care!

[lizardlady]

I finally brought my new horse home Saturday. Check out my "Great Horse Hunt" thread in pets for pics.

I am having killer flare. EVERYTHING hurts and I'm exhausted.

[Septembersrain]

So. I'm actually feeling a little optimistic. Amitriptyline, Bystolic and Lexapro seem to be a decent combo for my fibro and POTs.

Now here is to hoping it'll stay with me feeling good. How I'd love to not pass out anymore and drive my own car!

I'm jumping the gun here but finally some darn progress!

This is the third week of this bloody pneumonia, and, although I feel better than I did , I cannot walk five steps without feeling breathless. I am so pissed off at the moment. I wish I didnt have to breathe...
Sorry guys for being such a misery guts but I just had to tell somone.

[January]

((((( Pierro )))))

We all share and tell it like it is in this thread. We love you and want you to share with us. I hope you feel better, dear heart. Please keep on writing to us and letting us know how you're doing. I hope you feel better very soon.

[Septembersrain]

Pierro,

I'm so sorry to hear how you're feeling. I'm glad you shared with us, we all care about each other. I just wish that can get some relief. I'll keep you in my thoughts.
