Most of us are probably already aware of what they talk about, but this was new to me.

Yeah- they’re having me do a sleep study Monday.

My kitty is on prednisone for asthma and mini seizures (when they pop up- like lately). Does not help mama’s health when baby’s health isn’t good

Thanks for this, Liz.
I feel like those bursts of energy during sleep are surges throughout my whole body... repeatedly... my whole body jumps... even while I have been asleep for awhile.

I saw a Fibromyalgia researcher over 30 years ago now. His focus was PT modalities (esp. heat and massage) and SLEEP!
I am so surprised a lot more is not known over 30 years later.

Dear Friends,

I am so far behind in reading posts that it's terrible. I'll do my best to catch up soon.

I am having a rough time. My arthrithis/Sjogrens/Fibro pain is totally out of control. I can barely walk and there are times I can't even bear to have socks touch my feet. My hands don't work right anymore.

I go to the rhuemy today. I'm going to beg for mercy.

My simvisc for my knee injections was to be delivered to my surgeon's office today, but they have stopped the delivery of all perishable medical supplies because of the big winter storm on the east coast. Hopefully it will arrive Mon. or Tues and we can try the shots. I can't take the pain anymore. I've never, ever said that in my life.

Anyway, Belle has to have dental surgery. I am more worried about her than me. The appt. is April 5th. They told me I could drop her off and I told them I wasn't leaving her. I would stay. How do they like them apples!

I love you all. I pray for you every night. I just can't bend my knees long enough to sit here at the desk for long.

I will try to write more often. I miss you terribly.

Love,

Jan and Miss Belle

Jan, It's great to hear from you! Sorry you and Belle are going through so much!

I hope your doctor can help you.
I also hope Belle's dental surgery goes well.

My Dear Friends,

This will be short. I have been in excruciating pain and can't get my knees to bend so I can sit here at the desk. I haven't been able to wear shoes or even have regular socks touch my feet.

The rhuemy said the arthritis and fibro has taken over my body.
I am to get SimVisc like shots in my knees soon. The meds were held up because of the last huge snow storm. I am to go to the Podiatrist for my feet. She says the Pod may put shots in the
tops of my feet. I simply can't imagine it. Well, I can, and I'm horrified.

She told me I must prepare my schedule when I go to the store, so that I can sit for a couple days afterwards. I can't do that! She also said I need to ride a cart in the store. I was horrified and I yelled at her and told her, "I can't do that!". She asked what I thought the carts were for and I told her little old men and little old ladies who need them. It was not pretty.

She took Xrays of my feet. The Gastro told me if I need iron supplements because I'm anemic, I have to have it in IV infusions. Well, that set off another fire storm. I told my rhuemy, whom I really like, that they're all going to mess around and let me die. I'm sure she thinks I'm a nut. Maybe I am.

Anyway, I have gathered a little package together to mail to the grandchildren for Easter. It has taken me a year to get it all together because it includes little books and a tiny stuffed animal for each. I'm excited about that. I plan to mail it today. Then I hope to be able to take Miss Belle for a walk. She has been so good.

She had a little bit of a poo problem and a little got on her fur in a very private place. Well, I didn't know just what to do and so I got a wipe and turned her upside down like a real baby and moved her tail and wiped her. She didn't fuss or try to run away. She just stayed still for me. She is a good girl and she's very clean!

Think of us and send Belle lots of prayers and love on the 5th.

I love you all. I hope all of you that celebrate it have a glorious Easter and that those of you that don't have a wonderful Sunday that day.

Love to all!!!!

Jan and Miss Belle
