Hey you two---

Don't fool around with temps and vomiting. Make sure you're not

having a flare up. I am worried about you esp with young children to

take care of.

Thanks Gloria!

I don't think I am doing quite as badly as ! Poor thing! At least I am

keeping everything down!

I went for Blood cultures on last Tuesday and haven't heard back, so I am

guessing that they came back okay. I go in for a chest x-ray this week too.

I am feeling sorry for myself today, so having you all here to care, and

listen, makes me feel good

I'm feeling icky and my husband has the " shake it off " attitude, and my Mom

lately has just been trying to " one-up " me when I talk about feeling bad. I

got REALLY mad at the world this morning, 'cuz I wasn't feeling like I had

any support. (The last time this happened I ended up in the Hospital,

but..... what else can I do?)

If I am still feeling bad Monday, I will call the Neph and see if I can get

in to see my local Dr.

Hi ,

I know what you mean about feeling alone with your illness. I have

been there myself and am still going through it. Husbands don't seem

to know what we need under normal circumstances, never mind a chronic

illness, but in this case I think they are just trying to protect

themselves from the reality of it! When this happens, I just say " I

need a hug " and when I get it, it really helps Most of the time

though, we just need to grin and bear it! Everyone, including us,

wants this disease to go away. That's what this group is all about -

providing those (((((hugs))))). Hang in there! Gloria
