While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain health conditions or just dangerous in general. 2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation better. Have a nice day everyone.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 Hi Cam, I'm 41 and have been married for 21 years. I have a 16 year old son and a 13 year old daughter. We have two kitty cat fur babies. In addition to the fibro, I have other health/pain problems. I haven't been able to work since March 2002. I had a neck surgery in 2002 and a back surgery in 2003. I may possibly be having more surgery soon. That is pretty much it about me...pain, pain, and more pain. gentle hugs, Sundra > > My name is Sundra and I live in Louisiana.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 Dear Sundra, Yikes.....that makes me hurt to read your letter. I have a bad back too, but so far have said no to surgery. I really hope yours helped you. I am absolutely mad about cats!!! I take in strays or anybody that the cat underground has sent to me. I know the cats just laugh and laugh and say " go to that woman on the corner. She is a BIG sucker! " The most cats I have had is 9 nd that was too much. I now have Sheema and Nala, all black and sisters. The Humane Society who unfortunately knows my name called and asked if I would rehabilitate them because they had been horribly abused. They wouldn't tell me what was done or who did it, but they did say they went to the house and removed them by force. Well, we took them and it took almost a year. But now they sleep with us and sit on our laps and one of them sleeps on my neck. So they are totally fine. I also have Pandemonium....alias Panda....a black kitty with a white bib and nose. He is my favorite and just a wonderful pet....loving and fun. Then I have a new one named Nugget....he is a tabby and so naughty he is uncontrollable. I just love it!!!!! I'm 69 but have the mindset of a 15 year old. LOL I am a musician and have taught piano for almost 40 years. I also play in church with my duo piano partner which is one of my favorite things to do. I'm in a reading club that I started 5 years ago and it is going great guns!!!! I have 6 students which is all my body can handle....two of them are my daughter and my granddaughter Haley. Fun!!!!! Monday I start physical therapy for an ankle transplant that didn't work. I also have a knee transplant....arthritis. I have fibro and chronic fatigue and clinical depression and heart disease and a partridge in a pear tree. LOL Thanks for writing about you. Do you like to read?? If so, let's trade book titles.
