Oh love your heart, SeptemberRain. I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope you get better very soon. You don't need a hat. Surely people will understand.

It's causing me to have asthma attacks which I haven't since I was a kid. It's weird. Man I really want today to be a good day though so I'm not giving up! What are your thanksgiving plans? Sent from my iPad Mini 3 using Tapatalk.

I don't celebrate Thanksgiving as I live in Ireland, but I am glad to see that you are still chirpy and that you are not giving up

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone
 I have much to be grateful for .. My first IV infusion of Lidocaine on the 10th gave me roughly 9 days of decreased pain from a 7 to a 5.. On Tuesday I had my second Infusion.. My pain went down to a 3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is best I have felt since Fibro exploded my life. The Doctor that runs my pain clinic is the only Doctor in the state of Tennessee that is offering this treatment. They also do Ketamine infusions, which can offer some people even longer lasting relief. They start first with Lidocaine as the infusion is quick ,1 hour. Ketamine is 4 + hours and there can be some odd side effects during infusion. The " Lidocaine infusion's just might give me back more of my life with less pain... So far I am getting great results. Gentle hugs to everyone

You are definitely not a chicken. I can have the worst anxiety and feel completely horrible around people I'm uncomfortable with. My mentality can increase the symptoms of pain and discomfort. I'm betting it's like that for you too. On another note, I had a good thanksgiving. Had to go home early though because the rash on my head was burning and the meds I take would of put me to sleep so I held out as long as I could. I'm feeling okay today but my heart rate won't go down for some reason. Sent from my iPhone 6s using Tapatalk.

((((( SeptembersRain )))))
I hope you feel better very soon and that your heart rate goes down to normal very quickly. Thank you for validating me that I am not a chicken. I have Panic Disorder and Agoraphobia. It's so hard to go someplace new, plus it was just plain rude to crash those people's dinner without an invitation. I wish my friend understood better.... She helps me a lot though though and she is the dearest person except when it comes to panic... Meanwhile I'll keep  .

I could use some advice folks.
I'm still battling bronchitis and asthma. I finished 10 days worth of antibiotics and a steroid pack. I'm not coughing as much, but am still coughing. I know from experience the cough is likely to last 6-8 weeks. Need I mention that being sick has triggered a flare? I'm trying to decide if I should return to work tomorrow. I don't think I'm contagious anymore, but am afraid of causing myself to relapse. Anyone have any suggestions? I have several concerns - I'm prone to pushing myself too hard, too soon. I do that, then make myself even sicker. - We have quotas at work. I'm not going to meet this months numbers even if I go back to work tomorrow. Since I met my quota plus extras the last few months I should be okay overall. BUT I've been warned that if I don't make my numbers for the year my position could be in danger. Ideas anyone? |

Can you afford to stay out a few more days? I would recommend it simply because you aren't actually well yet. You might not be contagious anymore but if you're consistently coughing, you won't be as productive. Others will notice the coughing and might be worried for you and themselves. =( I also think you might end up making yourself more ill too. Overall though, I do think that you know yourself better than all of us. So do what you feel is right. I hope you get to feeling better sooner rather than later.

If you can stay out a day or two more, stay home and rest. You might have a relapse if you go back too soon.

Thanks everyone. I'm torn about staying home tomorrow. I really think I need another day of rest, but.... I am supposed to meet with my supervisor in the morning, then have an intake in the afternoon. Intake counts toward that all important quota.
Gunna see how I feel in the morning. Supervisor is a germaphobia. I might cal and see if she still wants to meet with me given the cough. Maybe I can work a half day so I can get the intake. |

Hi all I went in today. I'm worn out tonight and still the same physically.
This is funny, frustrating, but funny. The boss heard me hacking and told me not to "push myself." Asked her to clarify. She said to be sure and keep my numbers up, but not work too hard. Work from home if I need to. Work at the office or work at home, what's the difference??? She also suggested I leave early. Then gave me an assignment that she later said had to be completed TODAY!!!! So much for going home early!

Liz, your boss needs to match her words to her actions, does she even hear what she is saying? it is funny, but it must be frustrating too!

Well my pain decrease to a 3 lasted 6 days .Woke up today to pure hell.!
Sad discouraged and plain pissy. The pain clinic won't increase my Lyrica , I currently take 300mg twice a day.. The reason they wont increase is because I have a history of self harm .. None for almost 4 years,, but nope they cant increase , so I have an appt to see my GP and see if he is willing too... I love that my Bipolar and my past self harm (cutting) screws me as far as help at the pain clinic. Due to my Bipolar and self harm they wont give me anything for pain. Stigma and discrimnation at it best .. *** wanders off ranting***
