On top of everything else

Posted in Group: 

So on top of having chronic pain day in and day out. Hurting so bad that is hurts to sit, lay down, now I have strep, sinsus and ear infections. Boy does this suck. I have been in bed since Sunday, no work all week, which means no money. Besides my usual meds now I have to add antiboditics.

I will sit here just today and then tomorrow I have to get up and go to work! I need to start feeling better, there are things that need done!!!

OH kat!!! I am so sorry!!! I definately understand the way you are feeling!! Our bodies battle the "normal" pain we have and then we have to go and get sicker on top of it!! Certainly isn't fair!!!

I hope you get lots of rest tonight and are feeling better tomorrow!!! I wish you weren't going to have to go to work tomorrow because it sounds like you surely need a couple more days to kick this!

Sending gentle understanding hugs, Suzee

Suzee,
I did go to work, although I didn't stay all day. My body is just so tired that I can't see straight. I am starting to feel a little better. I am still tired, my throat still hurts some and my glands are still swollen and sore.

Thank you for the well wishes!
Kat

I am finally feeling better. The first antibiotics didn't work so I had to get another one. Took awhile for that one to finally work but it did.

Thank you for the good wishes, they helped!

OH Kat, it is good to hear from you!! I am glad that you are finally feeling better!! It seems so many are getting sick lately!! I know my oldest daughter was sick for a month straight and is finally feeling better now too!!!

I'd rather not have to admit it, but I too, am getting sick. Pain in chest and in back, sore throat, SO tired, coughing, chills, more weak etc...YAY!!! I have to be in trial prep approximately 50 hours before the trial... and then there's the trial.... gosh I hope I get my super powers back soon!! hehehe

Good to hear from you Kat!! Truly sending big hugs!!!

Hang in there, Suzee :0)

Suzee,
Hope you didn't get sick and got your super powers back!! That is all we need is for people in pain to get sick. It's not good!
You mentioned trial prep? May I ask why?

Great to hear from you Suzee, wishing you the best! Hugs

I've been in court a bunch of times in the past year with my nasty soon to be ex husband and our final trial is set for next wednesday as I am asking for permanent spousal maintanence!! Either way,I'm fine, I just want to be DONE with him!!!! :0)

I actually took today "off" from my really stressful stuff and my attorneys are all just working on things together today so I was able to try and rest and recoup. I have a hoarse voice and I still feel a bit sick, but I think I was able to nip it in the bud by relaxing today,thank God!!!! I haven't been sleeping much for I think 5 days/nights now so I was getting to the end of my rope!!! :0) I was having so many muscle spasms because I forgot to fill one of my meds because I was so stressed and busy etc... but I got it filled this afternoon and can feel my body finally relaxing a bit. I will take the full dose in an hour or so and am fantasizing about 8 hours of sleep, but that would be a miracle!!! I dont think I'd know how to act if I got 8 hours of sleep in a row!!! LOL I typically can only sleep at most 2 hours before pain wakes me and I have to gingerly try to change positions and try to go back to sleep. At least tonight I should get at least a few hours of sleep for which I am really looking forward too!!!

Gosh I'm rambling again!!!! LOL SOOO SORRY!!! How are you doing his evening my sweet new friend? I hope you are still feeling better and that you aren't in tooo much awful pain!!!!

Keeping you in my prayers and near my heart!!!! Big gentle hugs, Suzee :0)

Sorry to hear that you are having problems with you ex. Hopefully soon it will be over and the divorce will be final! I know all about that!

Glad to hear that you are feeling better. You and I both know that you can't forget to fill your meds. It takes a toll on our bodies. How did you sleep, did you get good restful sleep?

I totally understand about the 2 hours here and then rolling over and get another 2 hours. It sucks and maybe that is why I feel like I never get any sleep.

I really don't care if you ramble. If it helps get things off your chest, feel free. That is what I am here for!

I am ok, still hurting, tired as heck. But I am trying to keep myself busy, but then I am too busy and can't think straight! I am working 40 hours a week, which just about kills me, go to school one night a week, have enough homework to fill up about 20 hours, have kids and a husband. It is just all draining!

Hope all is well for you!
prayers and hugs!
Kat
