Guest guest Posted March 4, 2001 Report Share Posted March 4, 2001 Saskia, You don't ever have to be afraid to post what you are feeling...chances are someone else is feeling the same way. I know that often the discussions are about ttc or pg, but if there is anything you want to talk about, please post. I promise we'll respond. We are all here to offer support to one another...not just in becoming pg again, but also in trying to heal from the losses we've experienced. -AmyR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2001 Report Share Posted March 5, 2001 Saskia, It is good to hear from you, and I totally understand why you haven't posted more often. I often feel alot like you do. since our ep in Dec. 2000. Me and Heath have decided that we want to get married, and so therefore we are not ttc and he dosen't have a job right now either, so who knows when we can try again. I have frustrating days to, but I understand your feelings, just remember when your feelings get to be too much, you can always type to us. ----Keri > > Hi all, > > I am sorry that I haven't replied more often to all your posts but I > am not feeling that well at the moment. > The topics are so often on ttc and pregnancy and as I cant get > pregnant the normal way anymore and IVF is too expensive at the > moment (and my husband doesn't want to do it right now) I feel like I > have difficulties responding to those posts. > > Hey girls, don't understand me wrong ...

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2002 Report Share Posted June 27, 2002 Hi ... If I were you, I call the doctor. Sounds as though there is something going on that's not right. I never had a problem with talking or forming words (much to the chagrin of certain family members and friends -) ) but I do get that extreme weakness where my arms and legs feel like jello. Call your doctor and let us know what he or she says. Annette hi all I know I haven't posted for awhile, but I have still been reading. It sometimes is hard to post when you don't know where you exactly fit because the doctors can't tell you what you actually have. I do have a question. Has anyone had a time when they got really weak, not hurting just weak when its even hard to form words? This morning I seem a little better, but I am worried that as soon as I try to do things I may get like yesterday. I don't think its a stroke because its all over weakness not one sided. I told my hubby is I don't feel stronge I will call the rheumy. But I don't see him untill august. It almost feel like I am on medicine to make you not feel pain, but I am not taking any know. I am off prednisone because that did make me weaker, I am one of those that can't take it. The only thing I am on know that can make me tired is neuontin, but I am on a very small amount compared to others that have neuropathy. I have been on this for awhile so I don't think it from that, but who knows. I was just wondering if any one else had that happen where talking is hard to form words, and you body feels like jello. Thanks everyone and i hope your day is good. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2002 Report Share Posted June 27, 2002 , I have felt like that before. It is tiring just talking sometimes. Although, I always seemed to feel better with my medication and lots of rest. Have you tested your CPK lately? Don't wait til August to go to the doctor. Call him now and go see him. You should consider going back on the prednisone. I quit taking mine at one time and now my PM is very hard to treat. I have never had a remission and I regret that I ever quit taking it. I am back on it now and I will stay on it forever if I have to. Call your doctor though and get in asap to see him. Zanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great luck to you with the upcoming surgery and dont worry so much about working on eating right now. Take care of yourself and let us know how youre coming along. Good job ''almost'' getting into those jeans and I think August is a perfectly reasonable goal for getting into them completely!! Keep in touch!!

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 > ne, Oh hon, I'm so sorry. I just had a whopper of an argument with hubby on Memorial day. Just try and wait until you are not soo mad and then try to have a calm talk about it all. I'm made to wait when we fight because Mike has crohn's and when he is mad his belly hurts and he can't deal with it until he feels better. Very frustrating! Hang in there. I can also relate to the shoulder thing. I had surgery on my right one 3 yrs ago in April. I worked as a checker right up until the week before. It was agony! For me the pain before the surgery was way worse then any of the recovery pain. I hope it goes well for you. I'm sorry to hear about the deaths in the family. I don't know what to say about that. Just know we are here for you. I hope things settle down and get better for you soon.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2003 Report Share Posted June 9, 2003 > Hi Everyone, > > I am kind of down today, as you can see, I haven't been posting my weight. That is because it is no longer under 230! I just got weighed today and I gained 2 lbs from last week, I am so disappointed in myself. I am wondering what I am going to do after the surgery too. If I am moving, not a whole lot now what will happen after the surgery. Then to top it off I have so much to do!! I need to get my car together before I go in when is there time!! I guess right now I am just upset about the weight but it seems everything is going wrong! > > Thanks I needed to vent and now I need a plan. > ne ne, You poor thing! When it rains it pours, huh? We are here to vent when you need it. I don't recall what surgery you are having, but perhaps you could discuss strategy with the doc as to what kind of activity you can do, and how to at least maintain your weight during your recovery period? I'm here to listen if you need to talk! Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
