Hello Bee and everyone: I will try to be as brief as possible here, but I just

do not know what is going on with me. I do not know if I am retracing or what.

All this has happened over a period of approx. two months. First, I had a very

difficult time with what appeared to be severe fibromyalgia and CFS (which I

have experienced for years); then my whole body seemed to swell up with

sharp,shooting pains in all extremities, not in the joints but the long bones;

next I began to have difficulty with breathing and spent alot of time waking &

sitting on the side of the bed trying to concentrate on just breathing. Since

Friday I have had a cold/flu that resembles every flu/cold I have ever had, in

fact I am considering going to an Emerg. dept here. But I hesitate to do so for

a variety of reasons which, no doubt, you all can relate to. The hospital staff

may see all this as a need for antibiotics, or admission to hosp., or whatever,

and that I do not want!!! I also don't want to put any one on the spot here but

what can I do, any ideas anyone? I am quite miserable and very weak, and

somewhat scared. In the last day or so the pain and swelling in my body has

gone down abit; the nausea has lessened but diarrhea flares up occassionally;

the temp, headache, severe sore throat, and earache /sinus issues have

diminished a little, but I remain very weak and easily fatigued. I have reduced

the amt. of coconut oil I take. I also know I am not eating correctly because I

am so weak and can get quite nauseous. I have used alot of adjectives, I know,

but want to express my concern and state right now. Is this one Major

retracing, several together, or should I go to a hospital, I no longer know what

to do. Sorry about the length of this but obviously I need help. Thanks to

all. Marjorie
