Jan, I am sorry you are having such a challenging time!

If you are anemic enough to need infusions, you must be very anemic.

My aunt has been feeling horrible. Turns out she is anemic. She is feeling much better after the infusions. She is not so worn out, so exhausted all of the time. I know you have lots more going on, but wanted to share that the infusions may help you somewhat.

I have both you and Belle on my calendar for the 5th.

Happy Easter to you, too!

Please keep us posted when you are able.

Jan, I'll be a pocket rider on the 5th if you want. Please rethink staying at the vet's office while Miss Belle has her dental work done. I'm worried about the physical effects of sitting around the office will have on you. You won't be able to be with her while they do the work, then she's going to need time to wake up from the anesthesia. I understand not wanting to leave your baby, but please take care of yourself too, okay?

Gus, love the bird pics. What the heck are the ones coming out of the shells?

This last week was miserable. We had a cold front move through. The changes in pressure make me hurt like crazy. I don't know what happened yesterday. Usually after the front passes I'm okay for a few days. Yesterday driving to work I could feel a monster flare starting to build. I planned on traveling to see clients. I ended up going to the office and hiding out. I knew the way I felt I was not safe to be behind the wheel.

Liz, those are the Great Blue Herons, who just arrived de Mejico....

Gus' great blue heron pic inspired me to post pics of Sandhill crane babies. I love Sandhills.

Gus1234U · Mar 25, 2018 at 01:04 PM

oh Liz~! the Sandhills migrated thru the Alamosa Valley, just to the east of me about 2 weeks ago~! my cousin got to go see them, and her friend took pics~
i'm so glad the cranes and herons are back, they were almost extinct, you know~

lizardlady · Mar 26, 2018 at 05:44 AM

I wasn't aware they migrated. They are here year round.

Gus1234U · Mar 26, 2018 at 10:23 AM

we are also the summer nesting grounds for a large number of Canadian Geese. i used to imagine them on the dinner table, until i saw a young pair bonding, coo'ing and necking, on the little lake, and i realized they are people, too~

Gus1234U · Mar 27, 2018 at 01:42 PM

who knew ??? O.O the Blue Owl of the Phillipines~

lizardlady · Mar 27, 2018 at 07:07 PM

A blue owl!?!?!?! Way kewl!!!!

lizardlady · Mar 27, 2018 at 07:10 PM

I hurt so much I had trouble sleeping last night. So of course I was even more exhausted at work today. Have I mentioned I HATE having fibro?

Gus1234U · Mar 28, 2018 at 09:45 AM

i can tell it's spring, it snowed on us, and my window prism just threw its first rainbow~

Saw my neurologist on Tuesday, for a concussion (long story) but also went over how the migraines are doing. The sumatriptan works but I'm still having the same amount, so she wanted to start me on a preventative medicine. Her first choice was actually one I already take for the fibro, which hasn't been controlled for a while now, so she decided to double the dose and just let my pain doc know about the change. Not sure if I'm noticing a change yet, it's only been 2 days, but a little hopeful. Mood has been crap because of the amount of pain. Went IP twice since late February and most likely will have to again because the meds aren't quite working as well as they should. Schizo stuff kicking up, and it's not pleasant. Can kind of still tell the difference between reality and hallucination so far...

Gus1234U · Mar 30, 2018 at 01:25 PM

wishing you each and all a very comfortable Easter~

Kiya · Mar 31, 2018 at 02:03 AM

Popping in to say thinking of you all.
Just coming out of a 2 week flare and before that a 4 week major depressive episode. Working on regaining my regular schedule.
Oh, and I got sent to a pain psychologist. Huzzah.
Hugs!!

Anyone ever tried hyaluronic acid supplements for fibro? I just heard about this and am wondering if it is affective.

Saw this t-shirt and want one!
