Guest guest Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Marla, ...sounds like you are under too much stress. that's what i do when under stress or feeling overwhelmed. or just plain not feeling too well. Sounds like your body is going through alot of changes with hormones and med changes and family stuff. It just wears on you and after awhile it shows physically. If the progesterone cream gives you such a headache i'd stay away from it. Those creams made me feel like i was in 'heat'. Some women might need that but I don't. Since we are both Christians ...I'd also like to recommend some peaceful healing cd's and prayer to release some of these stresses and let the Lord handle the situations and the other people's mindsets. Return good for evil. Then...cry. You have my permission. It may just be perimenopause and a part of the cycle of life and perfectly normal....and nothing to be really 'fixed'. Like you said it may also be a combination of alot of things. As women i don't wonder why we don't go stark raving bonkers sometimes with all that's on our plates. Your husband is most likely coming from a place of fear and may just need to be reassured that everything will work out in the end cuz it always has before hasn't it? At least that's what I tell my husband. My husband is a born worrier and I usually need to calm him down. I would talk to the doc about those headaches though. Just a good idea to have those checked into hey? sunday hugs S. marla wrote: well after reading 's post, I decided to throw something out at you all, I say women in the subject line because I wonder if some of what I'm going through is hormone related or not. I have been an emotional wreck, ever since, I think some of you read about my healing from the Holy Spirit, and yes I do continue to feel better, especially the energy, I am sleeping a whole lot less. But I am crying like all the time, my emotions are all over the place, I cry over good news, over bad news over any news. And allot of headaches, like daily, some are real bad. OK this is what is going on, First the healing, just after Thanksgiving. OK so I went to the doctor and told him, and he said I could try to come off some of my meds. So I'm going down on the neurontin a 100mgs per dose, x a week, I'm down to 500mgs three times a day from 800mgs, the same, now there is no increase in neruo pain at all, in fact I truly continue to have decreased pain over all, the worse pain I had in my left thigh is like a twinge now and then. I went off the Effexor like a month before the healing without any problem. I also went from 15mgs on Sunday of Methotrexate to 10mgs on Sunday, but he said I had to do that for a month before I could go down again. I am still on all my other meds. Nortiptyline at night, Lorazapam at night, Plaquanil 600mgs daily. OK, no I'm also wondering, I am just about 48, could this also be related to hormones? I had a hysto and one ovary left, and the Gyn said that I would probably not have a noticeable change?? I looked at some vitamins a friend said she is taking that is helping, but it has all those natural herbs that I believe we are to stay away from? and I got some progesterone cream that my sister in laws said really helped them, when I tried that I woke up with the worse headache ever, I've tried it 3 times now, and same thing bad headache. and to add fuel to the fire, I'm struggling with my marriage, (who isn't anymore). My husband and I have different views on finances, If I have $5 dollars I'm rich, way I was brought up. If my husband doesn't have a million dollars in the bank he's poor (ok, not really a million), way he was brought up, and when all the blame for "too much money being spent" falls on one person, that person gets resentful! Ok, it's probably a mixture of all of it I know, but if anything jumps out at anyone, and you have any suggestions at all, I would so love to hear them. Thank you all for listening to me, your the best, and I love you all, God Bless, Marla -- The Lord bless you and keep you: The Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you: The Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Thanks , Actually my husband is the one that tells me to just "wait it out, and everything will be alright", he means the marriage, and I know he's right we have had our ups and downs over the years and it always works out, He is being more understanding these days, I just let my feelings totally out one day, and I think he was surprised to hear what I had to saw, but if that's what it takes, then maybe I should do that more often, I am not one to do that, I am better at holding things in, up until now, and fixing everyone else around me. Like my Mom has always told me, life is just hills and valleys, once you get to the top of the hill it's great, and you can slide on down, only to find another hill waiting to be climbed! I think of all she did when we we're growing up and I think of what a wimp I am. She had 7 kids to raise, worked full time as an LPN, mostly nights, because my dad moved us every couple years, and he drank too much, but I loved my Dad, he's been gone now for 18 years, so hard to believe, and Mom just moved in with one of my brothers, which is not what she wants, long story, but she is so used to doing what the men in her life tell her, it's just that now it's my brothers telling her instead of her husband. Over all, I shouldn't be complaining, so many of you are in such pain, and so many other things to deal with. Just know that I am praying for you all.
