Guest guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 ann... I do eat prunes. I was off them for a "try" to correct the daily impactions...called Miralax...I won't go into the details but my body has no "control" so I'm off that stuff and back on prunes. I actually like them! Increasing the water too. Arthritis/Fibromyalgia cause problems and chronic pain = chronic allergies and chronic itching , throw in deep depression dealing with all this and muscle pain so bad I can't get out of bed.....since I "can't" move quickly enough to get to the bathroom.............well you get the comedy routine! Oh hell, that's enough. Believe it or not I could go on. GEE WHIZ, I forget the PF. lol....... Hey, btw, welcome! MamaSher; 70, IPF 3-06, OR. NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there! Re: from Brett Hi Sher,I have same reaction to statins. Can take NONE of them! Anyhow, have IPF so what do I care about a li'l ole heart attack!!!As for impactions, buy PRUNES!!! If you have to cut them up and take with water then get busy & eat the darn things.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Glad you are back, Mama Sher!! I was worried about ya!! I guess I can join in, too, with the sick crew this week. Have come down with a cold from the grandkids. Kept them last weekend and they were all sick. I knew I was gonna catch it. Have done nuttin but cough, cough, cough and sneeze, sneeze, sneeze for 3 days. UGGGHHHH!!! I hope getting off the statins will help you feel better. Unfortunately, that is a side effect and some people can't tolerate them. I am glad you are back and hope you feel better soon. I have doc appointment tomorrow afternoon.
