My visit went great as usual. He's been my Dr. for almost 18 years and he's been my friend for about 10. He gave me my injections in my chest. That's the first time I have needed them in a couple of years. I've been doing too much at the computer so I believe I got my Thoracic Outlet going again. He'll keep giving me shots until we get it calmed down. The pain was in my left shoulder, my neck, and down my left chest area all the way to my breast. He gave me 4 injections. No cortizone though. Then he gave me some in my left thigh area.

We talked after that because he councels me too. I am still having a hard time over Bill and too dealing with two teenage boys. They both have girlfriends now, which is ok. Travis has taught them all he can about what's right and wrong in a relationship but my oldest was having problems with some of his friends and what they do so he's had to quit hanging around so many of them anymore. I think though now he is getting back to his normal self. Also he is 14. My Dr. said he was going through his puberty and had to figure out what was going on there. Like everyone else said on here money has been an issue since losing Bill but hopefully that will improve soon.

As far as what's going on and what makes me think it's something else is because other people I have noticed don't have the problems with the warm weather that I have had. Mine has been going on for about 4 years now. You mentioned MS, I never thought about that. I was diagnosed with MS about 2 years ago. I don't know if that would be a symptom of that or not. With me too, if it's out there I'm going to get it. That's one reason I quit going to Drs. I'd go for one thing and then they'd tell me I had another. I go to the ones that help me with the worst of it and my PCP helps me with all of it so that's enough for me. We deal with whatever is acting up at the time.

I did forget to ask him about that new myalgia he diagnosed me with but I will do that when I see him again.

I hope this don't continue with you, if it does you won't have a good summer. As I told you, I can't stand the heat and if I go out for any length of time, I am popping my Methadone and coming back in.

I have never took the Actonel. I don't know if it could be doing that to you. There are some meds though that you can't get into the sun with.

Country Mom, It is like winning the lottery when one of our pains give up. lol. As far as SS, yes you should be on it. I hope you have put in for it. I fought mine for years and then our State Rep got it for me in a week. You should try for it.

As far as the weather, the snow missed us. I don't know if that's good or bad for me. It's been in the 60's here and that isn't good for me.
