Hi all,
Im new here.
The fatigue is so depressing. Nothing like sleeping your life away. My doc finally put me on dexadrine and it's a blessing. At least I can stay awake and get a few things done. I was diagnosed originally with fibro but they were wrong.
Whats with the weight gain anyways??? I have gained 20 pounds. I used to have a hard time keeping weight on. But then Im not walking 5 miles a day like I used to.
I have a small garden which I love. Its a good thing its right outside the door though. I can just stumble right out to it

One thing I've learned is to value every accomplishment, no matter how small.

Hang in there,

Paula

Well, if those "sage comments" didn't cheer me up, nothing will!! It's really great to have a sense of humor through all of this crapola!!

Kitty, you mentioned gaining weight on the top half - me too, but it's across my back. Sure, can't even gain it in the right place!!! LOL

I do feel some better today, but the weather has changed again. A/C on last night, thunder storm today and now it's windy, chilly and feeling like November all over again. It does help the pain a little though.

Thank you all soooooo much for your encouragement!! Every so often, being alone gets to me but when I think about being married to my ex......YIKES....the loneliness is much better. And Sally, I'd rather be here alone actually rather than outside at picnics and a kid's birthday party even though I complain about that too. Those all day outdoor things began bothering me w--a--y back when my in-laws were still alive. Would get terribly achey and that was pre-MS and fibro. Now the "bladder issue" is a problem too when going anywhere.

OH NO bgd.........You must have snuck in there with my ex after me and before his new one!!! So sorry!!! We're much better friends than husband and wife -- for a day only, then I remember why we're divorced!!!!!!

Thanks again for being there everyone.......the "normals" could never understand!

Hugs.......

Hi Judy! I understand how you feel. The barometric changes are messing w/my Fibro something fierce, as I seem to ache so much lately. I have come to the realization that the OLD ME wasn't as bad as I thought it was.

The new, achey, breaky me sucketh right along w/the rest of you guy's suckeths!!!! I'm not even making sense to me.

Hope tomorrow is better day for you Judy!

Judy, great BIG HUGSSSSSSSSs
I have been struggling with tingling pain last few days, and blurred vision in one eye....and it is tough at work this way....
hugss to you and hope for some better days...hugsss and glad you vented here, I find when having tough days....just typing about it helps me..hugss,sarah

I didn't know anyone still had those webtvs. It was my first intro to the world of computers until lightning fried it and I decided to take the jump and buy a real computer. But I sure loved my webtv!
