MARTY- Hey ya all it is sure quiet of late

[Guest guest]

Hi Marty,

I hope you feel better soon..that feeling will go away once the new meds get

into your system I am sure.

I had that dizzy weird feeling when I started my high blood pressure pills years

ago...but that went away.

I thought I was doing pretty good lately..slow, but surely, and then today I was

in my back yard, looking at 

my flowers in the gardens..then I pulled a weed, and fell right there backwards

all the way down!! I couldn't move! I didn't hurt myself, but 

I thought..how the heck am I going to get up!!   I can't get up from a normal

chair, couch or anything unless

I have to have  a few cushions under me because my legs dont have the strength

to lift up!...I was never so scared 

in my life because my husband was at work and here I am laying on the ground!!

He wasnt due home for a few hours...Then, out of the clear blue sky, my brother

walked into the yard a few minutes later!!.. I couldn't believe it!

He came running to me and told me not to move..I said I think I am all right..I

wasn't really hurt, just scared...I crawled to the garden bench that was about

10 feet away...my brother asked me why I was doing that instead of having him

help me..I said, I have to figure out

what to do as if he wasn't there..besides, I didn't have the strength to push up

from a chair, let alone the ground..and being 

dead weight you know how hard that would be for him too!! Well, I got to the

bench and slowly lifted myself up into that..

it is sort of low so it was hard but not too bad.and then I had him pull me

up..that was scary too because I felt real weak

He walked me into the house and now i am afraid to even go outside by

myself...this SUCKS!!

Well, that was my day..one step forward, 2 backwards..very depressing too!

p.s. if your new meds are making you feel like you did going to high

school..just be glad you don't have homework!! lol

I am doing okay but man o man are my new meds getting to me I feel like i did

going to high school in the 70's . I feel loaded and floaty all the time
