Re: To Kim from Lo

[Guest guest]

Hi Kim,

I'm really glad to hear you are feeling better and you aren't too

stressed at home. I am really lucky because I took could take off

from from working until July so I had and still have plenty of time

to just relax. I'm lucky I have this long break in my schedule

because I think I was about to really have a breakdown before my

surgeryr. If I were you I'd try to go back next Thursday instead of

Tuesday, but when you go back either day I would suggest telling

your coworkers that you hurt your back or something like that and

your chiropracter said take it easy so they will know you can't lift

heavy things for about a week. I wore a tight sports bra that fit

my implkanted breasts and my breasts pretty tightly until most my

swelling went down and now that they aren't swollen the bras been

not too tight for a couple days so I think I'm going to target after

this to get a new smaller one. Don't wear one that's too tight if

it hurts. When you say you look through magazines at pictures let me

just tell you yes. It's the second thing I look at after their face

with every celebrity, and I think a lot of women who never even have

had issues with their breasts still do that. But when I do that I'm

not judging just curious to see who has them, and when I know or

think someone does it makes me realize that some of them may not be

leading the glamerous life they are if they start developing

symptoms like us. I'm happy for girls with natrually beautiful

breasts. But no, I don't envy big boobs anymore, I wish mine were a

little bigger but then again I wish a lot of things. I can't

believe I made breasts such an issue in my life I actually got fake

ones! That's so strange to think about now how I cared enough to do

that. Take it easy, rent some movies, that's been going well for

me. I'll talk to you soon!

Hi Kim!

I'm glad you are still being careful. I am experiencing way less

twitches though when i get stressed or am really tired I may have a

few in my legs or butt, but way less. How is your joint and muscle

pain doing? I feel like it is less frequently occuring but when it's

bothering me it's still pretty bad pain, especially in my hands. It

almost feels like the symptoms *such as the muscle twitching and

shaking) are slowly reversing since those were the most recent and

hopefully it will regress so much I won't have the joint pain (esp in

my hands) which was my first symptom. I feel it will take a few more

months for us both to recover more fully but I have faith for both of

us, since so many women have gotten so much better with the same

fibromyalgia symptoms. I think your brain is the most sensitive body

part affected in this situation and will take probably the longest to

heal, but I think it will. I had a bad head injury as a girl and I

had headaches and weird feelings but those totally disappeared about a

year after the injury, until of course my implants, but luckily i

haven't had trouble with sleep. Take it easy and i'll takl to you

later!
