THE BONE SCAN WAS NEGATIVE!

i want to laugh and cry all at the same time.
i have arthritis of all places in my butt the coccyx bone.
and my breast infection "lit up" but that's it.

i know i'm supposed to stay strong and positive but i was really scared.
the dr is having an occupational therapist do a home visit to see if we can come up with any better ways i can get comfortable.

all my labs were good. BP ok but a bit high.
i'm seeing a nutritionist MD on monday to get going on my weight again.
my dr highly recommends her. i'm hopeful but i'm lacking a lot of confidence in myself.

i found a lovely plaque in the hospital gift shop that i will share with you. i love it.

HOPE SEES THE INVISIBLE...AND...HOPE ACHIEVES THE IMPOSSIBLE.

it's a reminder for me to continue to stay hopeful.
my prayers have been answered. all is good and right with the world for now.

Yahoooooo. doing the happy dance here....what wonderful news
Judy...I bet you sleep well tonight.

that's great news judy .... sorry about the arthritis in the bootie ... that has to be hard to deal with ...

And all those in the room said "Amen."

Judy, this is good news. Sorry about Arthur in the tail. I hope they find ways so you can be comfortable. I am trying to get my mom to do OT but she thinks she doesn't need it. Anyway, I can breath now knowing your going to be OK.

Oh dear Judy~ I am so relieved that your scan was neg. I had a feeling it would be, but hearing that news, just gave me a huge smile. It has to be a huge load off your mind knowing that all is well. Now, just get Ms Boop all healed up and I'll be even happier.

I think seeing a nutritionist is a splendid idea and can't hurt. Maybe you can share some of their idea's w/us; I try to eat healthy, but have my weak moments, too! *can you say ''''pizza''????

Thank you for asking about DS; he goes back to the surgeon on Mon to go over test results and find out what the next step is. He is still having the L side pain. I've been worried about so much lately, that my plate has overflowed into a platter. Take care my dear friend ~~~

you take care too DM. and more prayers for you and your ds.
sandy, double thanks for your wishes.

i had my massage today and came home to nap.
i'm feeling pretty good.
i'm cutting back on my ultram so the soma must be working.

i'm filling out this massive questionaire from the wt dr. it's bringing up lots of bad memories of my childhood and all my eating issues. just hard to really shake all these experiences and hurts. probably ever won't either. but have to find a better way to deal.

may go out for errands tomorrow but basically in this wk/e. and glad of it.
enuf excitement for this wk.

warning...i'm ****** as heck and i just don't want to take it anymore
i ran 2 crummy errands after going to to bed this am.
i came home and did 2 loads of laundry. i'm exhausted. can hardly carry the basket back inside or walk..

i do and sit, do and sit. now i took a quick shower and have the wind knocked out of me.

then i had to make my bed and that really did it i sick of fighting to do normal things i'm out of breath.

GET OUT OF HERE MS. GO BOTHER SOMEONE ELSE. I DON'T DESERVE THIS. IT JUST ISN'T FAIR. WHY DO I HAVE TO HANDLE EVERYTHING MYSELF?

I'M POUNDING MY PILLOWS which is just making me more OOB.
I DON'T NEED OR WANT YOU. LEAVE ME ALONE. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.
I'M JUST SO ******, at what i don't know. can't be me. it's the MS.

i doesn't have me does it.
i'm mad as )*() and sad.

well, thanks kids. just had to get that out. and you can imagine all the expletives i used in my own house.!

ok, i'm calmed down. i had a little meltdown.
i took my pain pills and ate dinner and called cathy.
we talked it thru.

i'm a lot better now. back to baseline.

Judy, we're here and understand. Can I borrow a pillow?

everyone is entitled to a meltdowns every now and then especially when dealing with this horrible disease ... if we were closer i would come over and give you a hand ...
