Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Laurie, We all have those days.. more often than we want to, that's for sure. Keep the faith, tomorrow will be better. Just try and get some rest. If your meds are causing you more side effects than you are willing to stand, talk to your Dr. when you can and see what changes you can make. Hugs, Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Thanks Barbra, I have been out doing stuff most of the day. Think I'm going to crash for awhile. I know it will get better. Laurie Just needed to vent I really have no support to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Laurie, know about these days, and they really stink, really really stink and problem is seems just have to ride them out as when meds won't help then either have to sleep, try and watch t.v. or whatever to get mind off pain as best as can. But none the less the day or days will be rotten and you will not like it one bit and not one thing you can do but hang in there and know we are all praying for you and thinking of you and if you would want to phone me would be glad to give you my number or I could call you. If that would help just let me know, okay. Sometimes the distraction of talking to another person who understands helps. Try and eat a little bit of something that would taste good to you and rest my friend. Wish could really and truly be of help and make things better but my ability is only a computer and/or phone call. But my thoughts and prayers are with you also. Hugs s Momma JoAnn need encourage ment > > To my friends, > It's a hard day. Hurt all over. Haven't been sleeping worth a darn. Weather wise I feel I should be happy. It's like a nice fall day with sun shinning and it feels warm. But I really can'tt enjoy it. I put on new patches today. Why don't they cover every day aches and pains? My block that I had on Monday doesn't seem to be helping and dr stated last week that after shot I could only take 1 break through med a day. I try and make them last the whole month and they fall short about 2 weeks. I'm just tired of the hole rig a ra mole. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little better. I keep thinking if I can get to sleep before 3 am. My days will be better. I call psych dr. about side effects from one med that makes my legs just crawl at night. His substitue won't do any thing. So I figure tonight I won't take it. Sounds like depression I think. haven't been on computer for a few days so now I'mm way behind on mail. I hate that about myself. It's a drag to catch up on the news and how everyone is doing. I truly care about you guys. Enough whinning. > Thanks for listening. Will post more positive, I promise. > Laurie > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 > Laurie I've had many days like yours recently..but honestly the days can and do get better. Many days without sleep can make a person stir crazy during the day and makes you dread nighttime for fear of tossing and turning yet again. Everyone here understands that. However, tomorrow will dawn as a brighter day with at least one thing happening that will bring at least a smile if not laughter! Look for it and treasure it! Take care my friend Gentle Hugs Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 OMG.....it's been one of those days in this house too! The pain has been unimaginable without my Skelaxin this week, so I finally called my pain doctor at 3:30pm, and had them just go ahead and call in a new prescription for me instead of waiting to see if I just had another refill, because I don't think I did anyways..... Well, Gene refused to let me drive the hour it takes to get to the pharmacy, so he drove me, knowing that my mind would go completely blank while driving and I'd forget where I had been while driving (as in forget how I got to a certain spot while driving...) when I'm in that much pain......and I got my Skelaxin finally! What sucks is, the date on my Methadone and Actiq Suckers is the 21st.....and they can't refill them 2 days early, and couldn't go ahead and take the prescriptions and fill them and have them ready to be picked up on Saturday when I go back down to get them! So, now I have to wait until Gene has the time this weekend to drive me clear back down to the City, an hour drive one way, just to go and sit and wait for 45 minutes for the pharmacy to fill 2 prescriptions, and then drive the hour back home......all because they didn't want to fill them 2 days early. GGGGGRRRRRRRRR! Tonia ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
