Sara...

I can COMPLETELY identify with everything you are feeling.

I am a 33yo mother of 3 kiddos 3, 5, and 6yo.

As mothers we have no choice but to push through. Especially when there a low support system.

June 26, 2012 is when I was at a red light and rear ended due to him not even seeing the intersection and hitting me at 50mph...
I was looking over right shoulder into back seat upon impact.

Diagnosed as whiplash...blah blah..

Close to 5 months later...I am not doing well at all.
I have lost 18 lbs due to absolutely NO interest in food.
My BA is in health and wellness and pre kids was a fitness instructor/trainer.
I know how important it is to eat and I LOVE food...
but the thought turns me off...
Late in evening I have moments where I can eat...and choose something high fat (like ben and jerry's, hehe) to maintain.

As I sit here typing this to you...
the nausea is building..the head pressure is setting in and my ears are plugged adn aching...
My headache is coming on.....on the really bad days..its all over head, all day..
Good days..just stays in right temple.

My 3 yo keeps asking for snacks....and its is really setting me off...causing me ridiculous anxiety! All symptoms are hitting me hard right now.

I wake up pretty decent in the morning...and have small windows of "feeling good"....
As day progress and with certain stimulaiton or stress...I get hit hard with all the icky stuff.

Ugh...I am super nauseated just thinking about it.

I am so thankful to have found this group...and also the amazing PCS group on facebook.
Are you a part of the group? Are you on FB? I can send you an invite if your not apart of it yet. (or anyone else interested).

Feel free to email me.
Its nice to be able to connect with others...to feel less alone and less crazy.

big hugs to you!
