Lizzie Lou, Fladdict, Rooftrash, addictedtolortab, Mis Take, Chrosty, Chuck, Lady S. and everyone...

I just wanted you to know that I have the flu and I have been up and down all night.  I went in and took my exams yesterday but because my stomach had been bothering me for two days, the dr. worked me in.  He just said I had the flu.  I feel really rotten so I am probably not going to be at the computer much for a few days.  I hope I can just stay in bed and get better before Seaworld this weekend.  Actually we're supposed to leave on Friday, so I don't have much time to rest up and also get done what I need to get done.  
Chrosty, sweetie, I haven't abandoned you - I'm just very sick.
If ya'll need me for anything, send me an email and I'll get back to you.
Love,
Yoda

Good morning!  Glad to hear you're feeling at least a "tad" better.  Take it slow -- you want to be well for this weekend.  I bet you're really looking forward to it :-)

Well, a lot has happened to me in the past 3 weeks -- hysterectomy, recovery, unintentional life-threatening w/d's from lorazepam, back on lorazepam (lower dose), off lortabs for about 12 days, surgically-induced menopause big time, crying jags like no tomorrow, doctor put me on very low-dose estrogen, just started that one week ago, doctor appt. (neurologist) yesterday, got prescription again for lortabs, wasn't physically w'drawing at all but I think psychological cravings got the best of me, took 2 yesterday, felt yucky and achy and woke up with headache today, decided again not to take them as my regular medication when a headache hits, try Aleve and let it go at that, don't rely on lortabs anymore for the "drowsiness" effect to help me relax and sleep (which doesn't happen anymore anyway, my body obviously got too used to them for that side-effect).....that's been my roller coaster.  Hysterectomy wasn't too bad, recovery was good, abrupt surgically-induced menopause was kinda miserable, but the absolute, hands-down worst was the sudden unintentional lorazepam w/d.  I thought I was dying.  Anyway, that's been my roller coaster for the past 21 days.  Oh, and did I mention that my mother-in-law is in for 4 weeks from Florida?  

Hope all is very well with you and you're on the mend and feeling better each day.  

Blessings to you and to all here reading this,
Kim

Hey look under Whenwillitend's post, "Day 6 - Dysphoria" ~  I meant to include you too.  You could probably use some cheering up too.

Mom Lizzie, I made a post about my friend bringing her laptop over so I wouldn't be cut off from the "world" and it's disappeared.  Why would that happen?

I am so sorry to hear you're not feeling up to par :-(  Please rest up and take good care of yourself.  You deserve a great Mother's Day weekend!  I hear ya on the posting thing.  I've posted a few times within the last day or two, and none of them have appeared.  Very weird.  Don't get it.  Anyway, I hope you see this one.  Please feel better.....   Kimmie

Thanks for checking in on me.  I think I feel a "tad" better.  I am really looking forward to my mom's day weekend at Seaworld with my kids, so I hope I get to feeling better really soon!  Or they might have to push me around in a wheelchair, haha, and I don't think they'd go for that.
Yep, I don't know how a post can just be deleted.  I don't even know who could do that.  And it wasn't even bad or anything.  Sometimes weird things happen on this forum.  
I hope you are doing well and hanging in there.
Don't give up the fight,
