Guest guest Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 Hi , I hear you!! I will pray that your husband stays safe. As far as the job goes I know how that is. On the one hand we need to be financially responsible but when is enough, enough? Your the only one who can answer that. Wish I could take that burden away for you, but I'm in the same boat so to speak. My flares are way down, but I'm not working. We moved across the country recently and now that everything has settled down it's time for me to look for work. I know that when I go back to work the flares will increase. ARUGH! Oh well, all in a day right? Kathleen in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 Wow, what a load to carry . This disease is tough enough, and the bills are so stressful... but to work like you do and to find out about your husband being deployed... God be with you hun and may you find some peace in knowing you are not alone and never will be in the great group Rest when you can and take nice warm baths.... get the sleep you need and dont forget to eat to get the energy back.... hugs you all the time and know we are here for you hun Huggles you lots Sophia -- husband going to iraq I am so very over whelmed right now. I have started a new job about 5 months ago.. one that my doc keeps saying "isnt condusive to my medical condition" "the best thing that could happen to you at this job is that you get fired" I know hes right...third shift in a factory standing for 8-12 hours isnt good..but losing 16.00 an hour job..isnt condusive to my finacial condition either. The job has really been causing me alot of flare ups, which is bad enough on it own, but now on top of this i am dealing wiht the fact that my husband IS going to iraq in january and wil be there for 8 months..so now i have all this added stress on top of the new job and my fibro is getting even worse. The thing was when i took this job my husband and i both agreed that i would only work there just until we have the rest of the bills paid off we figured that would be a little over a year. Wehere right on target for that goal when BOOM the flare ups stared.Im trying very hard not to let hubby know how bad the fibro is getting with this job...he already has so much on his mind..and i dont want him worring about me while hes gone..i want him concentrating on keeping himself out of harms way.. i know the best thing to do is just qiut..but im just so tired of having to quit evrything for my fibro..for once id just like break..LOL i guess im really not looking for advice i already have that from my doc and myself..i guess im just wanting to vent type talk to myself and who evr else may read this..if you read this bless you for the shoulder ..i hope i can return the favor. love and god bless to all..sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been there one too many time's..(no I am not complaining) You are doing the best you can.. and ONLY you can decide weather or not you need to quit this job...

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 , Oh wow, sweetie! I'm so sorry that you have all of this going on in your life right now....especially just finding out that your hubby is going to Iraq. That has to be so hard for your family. I wish I could give you a big hug! I totally understand your situation with the job thing. I'm in just about an identical situation myself, except that I've been at my job for 7 1/2 years. I work at a factory too, and am on my feet all day. I work at a bearing factory, lifting heavy bearing assemblies all day long. Like you, it's hell on my body, but with 2 kids and an unstable economy, I can't afford to give up an $18 an hour job with good benefits! I also know what you mean about hating to quit everything because of having Fibro. I've been in a frustrated funk the last week or so, because of all of the ways my life has changed, and all of the concessions I've had to make because I was diagnosed with Fibro. I can't think of one positive thing that's come of it. Okay, maybe one thing. I do take better care of my body. Other than that, it's the bane of my existence. If you need to talk, vent, anything, please feel free to contact me off the group. I'm here for you if you need anything at all! Many hugs, Jen Site Mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
