Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 I do feel very blessed for the most part, but right now I am on a bit of a pitty pot and I am going to set myself a time limit and let it go. Its not so much the pain as it is being tired and feeling like I am going nuts. I just got home from the doc and he wants me back again next mon night. He changed my blood pressure meds. and upped my predisone to 60mg now. I feel like my head will never catch up with my ass. I walk around in a daze and thats driving me nuts. But I know I will get through this I have before. Anyway I am headed to bed and I will talk to ya more later. Love Lorra"Mojo (Joanna)" wrote: Lorra, then you are lucky. It is so important to have a good support system. I am lucky too. Between neighbors, friends and family I get lots of support. But not many people are as lucky as we are. Hope you start getting relief from the pain pretty soon. Mojo Input > Hi everyone!!! It's Lorra again.
