And today is Tammiloo's back surgery!
I wonder if her doctor is like mine. Whenever I've had surgery, he reminds me ahead of time that the fibro is likely to flare up from the trauma. I sure hope this isn't the case with our Ms. Loo!!! (((Tammi)))

(((Doody)))...thank you for that reminder..I will send an extra prayer..sometimes I forget how stress affects that.
...and WOW, how sad but nice to read that someone can understand that skin thing. It is so annoying. Sometimes its my whole body. It's hard to lay in the bed. It just makes me want to jump out of my skin. I try to use distraction. When you try to tell someone else what it is like, well, it is just very hard to do that. Hope you are faring well today...

And....?????? How did your appointment go Ms. Mistiis????
Do you take anything for sleep? I've tried a lot of them (including Ambien) and have for awhile now been taking a small dose of Trazadone. Thankfully it helps me get to sleep and pretty much stay asleep. (Cept for those annoying potty trips in the middle of the night.)

Oh doody...what would I do without you! I am sending you extra hugs and prayers today for that granddoody of yours. We want to hear as soon as you know. Any surgery is very worrisome, especially for a child.
My doc visit went well and I think he may be a keeper. He is understanding of fibro, the first doc I have had like that. I do have some Trazodone and I probably need to use it more often. I tend to think I can just 'suck it up' and deal with it all without meds. Which, of course, is not possible, not now, anyway. I have had a big increase in my level of pain and I don't like to think about the possibilites, there are just too many. Gosh, I am so glad to have some fibro friends. I don't have anybody in my family who understands it....take care and be sure to let us know about grand-doody in some thread or another. ...I will be checking in today for some word

I'm sorry I disappeared but I've had a bad week. Been sick all week.
And I am trying to get back on all medications, which is very hard. I take about 10 to 12 different kinds. So I'm using my head and taking the ones that are necessary. Threw up for a week so thats why no meds. Donna |

Oh No DMom! You poor thing! Is there a flu bug going around in your area?
((Mistiis)) thanks for asking. It's been quite a roller coaster with g-doody. Poor little guy. He just didn't understand fully why he was in so much pain...to the point at the end of the first day he was screaming and crying and yelled I'm gonna die mommy! She crumbled on the floor and started to sob so grandma took over. Luckily, we discovered that the big guns pain med that the doctor sent home REALLY helps, although he screams while being given it because it does just taste horribly nasty. He gets loop-de-loop on the hydrocodone/tylenol like most of us would. But, it's the only time he will eat or drink. At night the kids are supposed to wake him up to give him meds to stay ahead of the pain. Usually in the middle of the night they give him regular tylenol. Oh, I just talked to daughter and I guess last night was pretty bad and this morning not so good. Sigh. But, each day will get better. We're taking turns taking care of him and my next 'stint' is Tuesday all day. So ((Mistiis)) take something to help you sleep, please!!!

Its not the flu bug.
I believe my ulceratis colitis is acting up. Or whatever is causing the abdominal pain. But I can't seem to get a break had diahrea again last night. Now have to start again. Have to figure this out. Donna |

(((Dmom))) I'm so sorry. I've had ulcerative colitis for 34+ years and it tried to take my life several times.
Was doin good till this past year and it's been on 'flare' status that whole time. If I forget or don't take my Asacol, I know it. I'm so sorry, UC is just awful. What do you take for it?
