I have been eating wheat for a week:eek: Very bad idea! I feel like-well you know...I need to stop! I think when i do this I just punish myself for something or I just get sick and tired of watching everything that I eat. It is such a pain because i am the only one! And no one gets it:rant:
Ps Skippy I hope :icon_puke_l:is over now and you are feeling better:)
Oh dear, Skippy. Hoping today is better for you. :flowers:
Abby, wheat's a hard one to give up. I tried baking with rice flour once (my friend wanted cookies & I was trying to be nice) - it took 3 times as long & I was ready to pull my hair out an hour into the baking. Hope you're feeling better soon. :flowers:
tidytaurus, hope they find the right combo of pain meds that work for you. Never fun to keep changing meds. :frown:
Hope today is a pain-free (or as close to as possible) day for all.
I`m in a smidge of pain cause I went to see Bon Jovi last night. I overdid it, but boy did I have fun. I miss the days when I was young & foolish & could overdo things & still be raring to go. One of these days, I might remember not to try to relive my mispent youth...nah, what`s the point. Ya gotta have fun while ya can & pay the price later, right? ;)
Andit glad to hear you got out and had some fun last night Bon Jovi OMG I am so jealous!!!!
Just when I think things are going to get back to normal .... surprise I have unexpected company from out of town. This is dh's bday and he desperately needs a break so what else could I do bought him beer last night so he could over indulge and tune out life for a few hours. He's at work today and says he is staying late just because he does not want to deal with anyone else.
Why is it that because of pain, I can't commit to anything in advance? or if I do I have to back out at the last moment :frown:
DW's holidays are in a couple of weeks and she and DD are going camping, but I can't commit to it.
I've stayed home before, and I've gone before and puked everyday :frown:
This year I figure I'll pass because I believe I'm sicker than last year, but I
would still like to go, I think...
I just hate my body!!!
:rant:
Awe Skippy its a darn shame you might not do the camping trip! You need a holiday too and camping is so relaxing.
I saw dr again and his solution to my meds is again to double them and I have to go back in 2 wks so he can assess, I am increasing them slowly but now they are starting to upset my stomach even more, and not controlling pain yet. I will continue trying any tips?? Dr got concerned when I said I was going to take a knife and cut where the pain is so then maybe drs could see whats wrong and fix me. Ooooops should not have said that outloud, but I was pretty miserable that day.
If you're doubling the meds. maybe you can spread out the timing of them. That is all I can think of for your stomach problems.
Your pharmacist may be able to assist you.
I also take medication for my stomach, partly because of the meds.
I've also said many a time how I would like to cut out the offending area. But not to my Dr. :(
Hope you find relief soon.
I took so much pain meds ..my stomach bleed and then they but me on stomach meds--I got really sick then!
I wish I could stick a knife in my pain too-to relief the pressure though-maybe my head would pop like a balloon!Or so the dr.s will do something!!!
I am going to try a Naturalopathic dr on monday-I have been to 2 before-but I need to try something new! I can't stand being on a wait list!!!! I have been on a wait list for another spec. for 8 months now! My head could have let my body and shot to Mars! I am not sure what to do..but I am tired of doing nothing..but taking anti-seizure meds-they have wicked side effects! Sorry for the:rant:
Skippy I went camping for the first week of July -but we have a trailer-it was really hard--I feel your pain:frown:
What a fine bunch on this thread, we all want to physically cut out the
offending area. I usually want DW to get a gun and blow it away.
My DH said to me suicide is not selfish in my situation:eek:
Do you think he gets it???
I don't think anyone "gets it" unless they've walked in our shoes.
That is part of the difficulty in living with this.
Suicide is not the answer, it is a cop out as DW would say.
The wind blowing through your hair, the sun shining down upon you, the song of a bird, the smell of a new baby. All are blessings.
Somehow we each make a difference in our own little part of the world.
Knowing I am not alone through my struggles helps. I wanna cry now.
