feel bad all the time.
I am tired of feeling bad. I have bad headaches lately I have hard cramps in my chest some but mostly in my stomach and right below my navel. the cramps get quite intense. leaves me sore for a couple of days. gine for a few days and then the same thing. no one thinks anything is wrong. the doctor did blood test said everything was fine. I was having weak spells and cold sweats so back my hair got wet and dripped on to the floor. I quit taking my Lipitor. some of those problems have gone away. I feel I have more strength but don't push myself too far.,,what could be causing this any ideas? my doctor says I am ok my niece says oh there is nothing wrong with you. why do I get these spells and feel sick when I get them. I am on depression meds. and anxiety meds and thyroid pills. they seem to be doing fine. mandy876
Hello Mandy,

The baby girl was born on 7 August.

I have updated my photos in my profile, so you will be able to see the Minie Mouse cake that I did last night.
The children loved it.
I have been feeling very dizzy and weak in my legs today. I am still very congested in my head and am using a nasal spray and steam inhalations to get unblocked. It is slowly getting better, but I think it is a virus and that is why I feel so ill.
I have slept for a few hours in the evening and it is time to go back to bed again. I need to keep up my strength and get better as I will be summoned to look after the 4 young children when their mother goes into labour with her 5th child.
The baby was due on the 24th July, so it could be any day now.
Every time the phone goes, I feel on edge thinking I am being summoned to go and look after the children. I felt so on edge yesterday when making the cake. And with standing and decorating, my legs and back got really numb and in pain. Anyway the cake was completed and they all loved it.
It was a chocolate cake with my special home made chocolate butter cream.
Take care and enjoy whatever you decide to do, not matter how small or insignificant it seems.
Best wishes.

I can contact friends but I cant start a new question. I can answer questions. they talk to me through notes and messages. if you have had bad experiences with friends I understand. hope yu have the best in everything. mandy876
Sorry Mandy, but I do not like to have "Friends" on the MedHelp. I did it once and by mutual agreement got "unfriended".
It clutters up the whole screen with friends' friends' friends' messages and there is no way to delete them.
I have read your journals and have left some notes for you there with the problems that you had.
The reason we are not able to send you notes, is because you have been stopped by MedHelp. This forum must have missed them.
Although you can send me a private message, I am not able to send one back to you either because your privacy settings are set to not accept private messages, or that you are barred.
I am really weary today, I have been standing and decorating a birthday cake for my granddaughter who will be 7 on Sunday. It is a Minie Mouse cake. I have yet to decide what colour candles to put on and also pipe a message on the cake.
I do not know where you need to join. I am surprised as you were stopped by MedHelp, that you are able to post on this forum.
Anyway I wish you well.
Best wishes.

yes things are a lot better. I don't know what the problem is. I will send you a new friends request. but I have my journals open. I tried to send a note yesterday and it would post. witheredrose is having the same problem. I rewrote it and it went through. I will make sure you are on my friends list. do I need to join general health?
Hope you are keeping well and that things have now settled down.
I am not able to send private messages to you and any Notes I send are not going through either.
Friends on the system just clutter up the whole screen and cannot be deleted that is why I prefer sending private messages.
Wishing you all the best.

I had my breast surgery when I was around 46. then chemo. hate that stuff. my hubby died 2 years after that. I was so lost. my daddy had died of pancreatic cancer 2 years before me and he died. all I had left was my precious mom. she was coming down with alzeimers. she kept getting all her bills and everything all mixed up. I talked her into come to stay with me for a while. it was great. but her mind got worse. she did not know who anyone was and everyone avoided her. when she died 7 years ago. I had no reason to live no one who loved me unconditionally. I was dieing. my niece came by and said her boyfriend broke her arm and she had no where to go. I told her she could stay with me, and if she helped mewould leave her my home. I had no children. she saved my life. she drug me to the beauty shop made me get my hair fixed and then we went out to the cotton patch. the best restaurant I have been in chicken fried steaks. then she drug me to the doctor. she has to love me to go through all that. she is bi polar manic depressed . some times we are not good for each other but we understand what each other is going through. thank you mandt876
Hope you get on OK Mandy and get treatment for your ear infection and dizzy spell.
When you see your doctor ask him to refer you for counselling to help you through this rough time that you are going through.
I know the other forum has been closed now, but I do hope that you do take on board what I said in the message I sent to you in the forum that has now been closed.
I am going away for a week and will not have any access to a computer, so I will wish you a speedy recovery and trust you will not do anything silly.
Close your eyes and imagine that I am giving you a very big hug, because right now I know that is what you need more than anything else.
Take care, best wishes.
Your friend jemma xx

thanks I need a hug more than anything on earth. just to know someone cares/ andy876
Sorry to hear that you had another bad night.
I slept like a log. Have been to see my doctor today because I was stung by something a few days ago on my inner thigh and the pain is travelling up the leg. She prescribed an antibiotic for me. But I feel so tired now, that 2.30 pm, that I may go back to bed for some more sleep. The things is I have so much to do before going on holiday on Saturday.
I know you miss your parents and husband, and it is very hard for you. But unfortunately, they can not come back. But they are with you in spirit.
I feel that bereavement counselling would help you to deal with your sad loss.
Unfortunately, we all go through losses in our lives. whether it be losing a loved one through death, losing our health etc. We cannot turn back the clock and have to do the best we can.
Hope you have a better day to day.
Best wishes Mandy (just close your eyes and imagine that I giving you a big hug)

Hopefully you will get a better night's sleep tonight.
I know the feeling Mandy, if it ain't one thing goes wrong, then it's something else. And one virus after another.
I suffer from tinnitus and have buzzing in my ear all the time day and night.
Hope you find your vaporizer, if not you can do steam inhalations over a bowl of hot water with a towel over your head. Just take care not to get scalded.

I have a vaporizer some where if I can find it I will use it. seems like everything possible is happening ti me. this is getting unreal. I am not going to give up. just keep on trudging through. your friend mandy876
Oh dear Mandy,
It appears that you have either a viral or bacterial infection. You may have to see your doctor if it doesn't settle down.
Take pain relief tablets to bring down the fever. Plenty to drink, your juice and water, and rest.
With the ringing and clicking it may be a congestion. If it doesn't settle down you may need an antibiotic.
To help relieve the congestion you can do steam inhalations by breathing in steam. Pour hot water into a bowl with some Vick or Olbas oil, with a towel over your head and the bowl lean over and breathe in the steam.
Or you can get some nasal spray to help to decongest.
Hope it goes away soon.

now I am getting an ear ache. the glands in my neck or sore and my ear is ringing and clicking. and I am running a fever. what else can happen. this is weird. have a good day. your friend mandy876
Thank you Mandy.
I think I will keep off the grapefruit if future as it seems to make my arthritis much worse. I did get a little of acid reflux from it too. But I did enjoy drinking it.
It has been hot in the afternoons the last few days, but we very rarely get it as hot as 100C. I hate it when it too hot too. I prefer it bright and cool, but not cold and wet.
Hope you have a good day
Best wishes and hugs.

Well, I do know that human doctors have operated on the wrong limb before now.
My niece had the tendon cut in her good leg when she went for her operation. They were supposed to cut the tendon in the leg that she drags. She was born prematurely and was starved of oxygen which affected the tendon in one leg not developing properly.
Even after the operation to try and correct the bad leg, it did not cure the problem. She has never been able to walk straight.
I have a really bad day to day and have slept for over 12 hours. May be it is because I only slept for 3 hours last night, or that I drank too much grapefruit juice. I only bought it because it was reduced in price.
I do know that certain foods and drinks makes my arthritis much worse.
My fingers and wrists are in agony too. I will have to stop typing so much.
Hugs to you Mandy.

I haven't reached your age yet. But the body does slow down as we get older. We can't run around like when we were 20 anymore.
Pace yourself, you know your body best. Do what you can and take things easy. You can also join clubs for the over 50s that do gentle physical activities and swimming is also good at any age. Go out for little walks in the fresh air every day if you can, this will make you gradually feel better and any form of physical exercise is good to ease feelings of depression.
With you having headaches, these may be from stress and anxiety, but the doctor should also check your blood pressure. Either too low or too high blood pressure can cause headaches. If it is too high, you doctor should monitor that for a few weeks before deciding whether you require medication to reduce the hypertension. At home, cut down the amount of salt you consume. Salt is added into a lot of foods.
Hope you get on OK
