Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Hi all! Thank-You so much for the sweet words about my grandmother's passing.It was a bitter-sweet trip.My mother wasn't able to go because of her health which was sad but overall was a nice visit.What suprised me the most was how I did pain wise.I drove there, but my daughter drove the rest of the time so I could take a pain pill.I just came off of a realy big flare so I was a bit worried how I would do.With the pain pill I was comfortable most of the time whitch totaly amazed me because I didn't get much rest.The worst time was when I was at the funeral home for visiting.I was doing well when all of the sudden I got very sharp pains in my right shoulder that ran down my arm I couldn't figure it out untill my cousin said " boy it's gotten cold in here! " Then it hit me!!! The cold air was causing the pain.That realization realy hepled me because At my grandmother's there are only 2 small window air conditioners in her house which is quite a large 2 story home and I have central air at my home and my husband keeps it set pretty low.The heat was helping my pain.I sweat like a pig but didn't care because it felt so good on my joints.I think that's why I hurt so much when I am home.My husband is a sweetie though because when I told him he said for me to set it on anything I wanted to if it would help my pain.Awwwwww.(He gets a cookie!)So for those of you out there that are new to this like I am keep as warm as you can.Well take care all!-Tammy- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
