I know, what’s new? 😛
Here’s the deal, I have pendants ready to be added to chains and crystals ready to added to that. Last night I made the prettiest cameo necklace and then realized the chain I used was antique copper and the pendant was antique brass. DOH! I spent so much time on it and was so discouraged… took pics, got em all ready, and went hmmm, doesn’t look right. Looked at hubby, threw my hands ups, and rolled back to my room. I think it was karma [or the Norco] as I should not be out at my table right now. My legs, left mostly, will not stop swelling up. I’ve been keeping them elevated and everything and they/it will not go down. HATE kankles!!! I do not want to tell my neuro because every time this has happened in the past, he sends me to the ‘Big House’ [hospital] for a 3 day IV Solumedrol vacation. I WILL NOT do steroids any more. Sorry!!
The worst part is the pain in my right shoulder going down my arm. After a few minutes at the design table the pain starts. Might be a tendon or something. Too scared to find out and no way to get to the doctor. It’s tough on Roger to take so much time off work for me, and not fair to him. I must say, I’m really loving my Norco right now.
What sucks is I cannot sleep on my left side, hip pain. I can’t sleep on my back, DD [degenerative disc] so, I have to sleep on my right side. Soooo not fair!! Someone cut me a break please!!
Yes, I’m having a “Pity Party”, and all are welcome!!
I’m just so tired of being sick and tired. This was not supposed to be my life. I know, it is, deal with it, right? Easier said than done. I’ve had people say that it happened to me because I am so strong. They say that if it had happened to them, they would have crumbled. Um, Thanks, I think. I’m really not as strong as some think…
On a lighter note… yes I know, Random! A little funny for your day/night:
Or, as the Fabulous Vicki would say…A good day is when I don’t roll over and crunch someone’s toes!! 😉 Click on her name and visit her blog, it’s awesome!!
Peace Out!! xx

thanks treasure ……… can you drink fennel tea – I found this helped with the swelling ( one drug cocktail was a bitch for this) the upside is it’s very refreshing cold or warm the down side is for the first day I just sat on the “throne” reading and swinging my chubby legs as you literally pee away

I’ll have to check for that, not that I need to pee any more!! rofl

I just broke down in tears. I’m so sorry Tracy. I love you so much, and so dislike to know and hear of how much pain your in. I wish I could magically take away all the pain that my friends and my mother feels everyday. Your right, it’s not fair! I, often ask myself how can GOD be so cruel. When will he let up and say enough is enough. Sad part is, I know in all heart, it will only get worse, before it gets better. Please know your words touched me as they always have. And I may not always talk to you to everyday, but just know I am here, and I do respect and love you immensely! Stay strong honey! xx

Reading your comments, I don’t know if what was said to you, was said out of ignorance, or because they’re trying to say the right thing. But the way I see it, is a medical condition is a medical condition, it’s not given, chosen it allowed in any sense. And it doesn’t happen for any other reason then the medical ones. (If anything was given/chosen/allowed think of the hit-list you could muster up.. 😛 lol).
They also don’t know how they would or wouldn’t cope unless it does happen to them.
As for strength, it comes in a lot of forms, and I can see strengths in you, as well as the struggle.
..Now, I can’t advise much on Rodger, his work or how he feels, the only suggestion I have is to sit, chat and ask him all the things you need to know or are worrying about, because these are things only he can tell you. (Or put your mind to rest).
Anyhow. You know I’m here if you ever a need a chat
