I haven't disappeared!

Hello everyone.  I only have a minute, but wanted to say that I have not abandoned you guys on purpose!  I have been extremely busy lately and have been going through some personal things as well.  I am getting ready to start classes back up next week and am trying to get everything on the homefront in order beforehand.  I have popped in to read a few of your posts from time to time, but haven't had the time to respond.  I hope I will be able to be back on in the next week or so.  In the meantime, I hope everyone is doing well.  I will talk to you all soon.

I'm so glad you spoke to us.  We know you're busy.  How are you feeling?  Have some of your symptoms resolved/improved?  Is this your last year of school (Nursing)?

Hey, Jenn!  How are you?  It's good to hear from you.  Hope you and your family are well.  How'd the karaoke contest go?  I've been dying to know.  More importantly, how have your legs been?  Did your knees ever get the chance to heal?

Thanks for saying hi!  

Quix,
I am feeling ok.  The fatigue has been the worst thing lately.  I am also having a really hard time excercising which is frustrating me.  Whenever I work out on my eliptical I my feet start tingling, then go completely numb, then start burning and hurting really bad.  As soon as I stop excercising, it goes away.  I am trying so hard to lose weight, and this is really setting me back.  My other symptoms still come and go, but I can tell that they are lessening in severity right now.  I have my evoked potentials done next week.  I have just started my clinicals in school, so I still have two years to go.  I feel like I'm running in circles right now!  How have you been doing?

Momzilla,
We are doing well, but going crazy!  How are you and your family?  I made the top ten in the regional finals, but then didn't get into the top five the following week :(  It was fun though.  My legs are healing.  I have a real pretty scar on my left knee, and they both grind and hurt whenever I try and put too much weight on them (like walking stairs or kneeling down).  I missed my ortho appointment and am scared to call and reschedule.  I am afraid they are mad at me for not calling and cancelling.  My schedule has been so hectic that the appointment totally slipped my mind and I didn't realize I missed it until a few days later.  Anyway, I miss you guys a lot.  I wish I had more time to chat, but maybe things will slow down for me in the next week.  Take care, and I will talk to you guys soon!
