Hi Quix,

I was just checking on you.  I read a post awhile ago (can't remember which one) and you made a remark about how yesterday had upset you.  I'm assuming the LD thing.  I just wanted to make sure your okay and also to ask if I said anything in my posts that may have upset you.

I know that the LD'ers where making me mad but I tried to keep it together but if I said something that was wrong please let me know and I'm sorry.

Anyway, I hope your okay and I hope your having a good weekend.

We had made plans to go to dinner with some friends but like usual I had to spoil everyones fun by telling them I did'nt feel like going.  I am just hurting so bad today.  It does'nt matter what I take nothing is helping.  Got an suggestions on a better way to take my meds:

methadone 4-5 daily
lyrica 3 per day
oxycodone 3 per day
cymbalta 1 day
potassium 3 day
metolazone 2 day
prednisone 1 day

I think that's all..  I usually take 1 of each when I get up and then the rest throughout the day.  I can't tell that they even help when I'm hurting bad.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'll be praying,
Carol

Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law, I hope things get better for her.  You and yours are in my prayers.

Try as best you can to take care of yourself.  I know how exhausting it is to sit in a hospital and it only makes it worse when you already feel bad.  Hoping you get some needed rest soon.

Hugs & Prayers

Once again, I thank GOD for all of you... you are a place of refuge and strength, i feel so blessed to be part of this extra-ordinary group of friends. I care so deeply for all of you.

It has been a difficult few weeks but even so these past few days. I am exhausted, my mother- in- law had a heart attack, is in icu & having a pacemaker put in on tuesday. She may also have breast cancer, we were taking her for her 2nd mammo when she became ill, we rushed her to the er.
I have been with her non stop...which i want to do but i am in so totally wiped out. I would appreciate it if you could keep my family in your prayers.

I will continue to lift you all up in my daily prayers. Stay well and feel the love,
Frann

Of course I know you wouldn't leave me out!!!  I think you and I were posting at the same time - ha

I always feel all of you are all here for me and you know how much that means to me.  I feel somewhat better today not so many muscle spasms and pain.  

I think what gets me so down is my lack of brain function.  I had always been able to do anything and usually tackle two or three projects at a time with no problem, run our home building business, and physically work on job sites too.  

This year I do good to carry on a 5 minute conversation without going completly brain dead.  I don't even trust myself to balance a check book anymore.  I can't help with the business decisions or even get my brain to work long enough to pick out the decorating items for our homes.  

I guess I'm just drinking up a large glass of whine the past few weeks, cause I feel like such a burden to my husband.  I am just not contributing like I should be, and I can tell it makes it hard for him.  He has always depended on me so much to make final decisions and to keep the business going, while he is doing other things.  I guess I just feel like I am useless now and only cause him worry and am not pulling my weight.  Wow, I am realllllly feeling sorry for myself aren't I!?!

I am determined to get through this and I know I can.  My family always says I am the most stubborn person they have ever met, well now I just have to make that work in my favor against my depression.

I love you all and hope you are all having a good holiday.  You and "Hot Legs" and Quix and almost everyone on this board are great inspirations for me.  I know if all of you can go through what you have been through, then I need to just buck up and move through it too.

Thanks again for all your support and kindness.

We must have been posting at the same time!  I didn't mean to leave you out!  I hope you are feeling better.  I have had a history with feelings of depression, from time to time,too.  I hope you are feeling the support of the group lately.  You're such a big part of that.  So sorry that I missed your post!  It looks like I "dissed" you, Girlfriend!  You know I wouldn't do that, right?  I was just checking in and noticed.  

Take care and consider yourself hugged.
