ARGH

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Welcome back!

I have been in pain. I tried to use Amitriptyline, but I did not like the way that it clouded my mind, so I stopped it. Notified the doctor’s office, managed to straighten out my checkbook which I fouled up. Managed to pay our rent before the landlord had a conniption fit. I do not like being muddled.

Now, I am having trouble with clamps, I mean cramps. Bladder spasms is what the medical people call it. I cal it ARGH otherwise known as PAIN. When they happen, it feels as if someone is trying to rip out my guts, one piece at a time. Right now, I am sore inside, as if someone kicked my in the gut - HARD. Thankfully I have some naproxen sodium to add to my regular pain meds.

Workout

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

I feel as if I am getting a workout with all of the running that I’ve been doing.

I don’t even need any fitness equipment in order to get the workout. It would be very nice to have a day with no running, no bad news, no pain.

I am hoping for a miracle of course. I know that miracles still happen every time that I wake up in the morning, it is another miracle. I just want a different type of miracle this time. Money to hire the packing to be done by someone else. The cleaning by someone else.

It is nice to have day dreams.

Now what do I say?

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

Yes, that is the title of this article. I have no idea what to say.

Our friend who had been riding his motorcycle until he was hit, has told us that he is needing to get his medical bills taken care of. He did after all go to the ER and get a lot of Xrays to make sure that nothing was broken.

I guess the person who hit him will need something like insurancespecialists.com. I do not know if our friend was bruised, but we do know that he is hurting. His wife is thankful that he is alive.

Usually when a bike goes up against a car, the bike rider loses and most of the time, dies. I am glad that he is not one of those. I am glad that he is alive.

Diets, diets, and more diets

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

It seems that everywhere that I look, these days, I find diets.

Diets are mentioned on TV, magazines, the internet, and a lot of other places. Even lipozene reviews, can be found.

Just today one of the diets has found itself in trouble with health problems being the main trouble. Any time that you go on a diet, you should use common sense and not go to extremes. I would love to find a pill that would help me to lose weight without any exercise because of the Arthritis that bugs me. I now have a new pain pill, it helps, but I am sleepy all the time.

So, remember go on a diet, but check it out first.

Later

Sunday, May 16th, 2010

Well, the running around has not yet stopped. I am feeling better since I started to take the new pain medication.

Now, if I can learn how to be more awake when I first get up in the morning, everything will be better. I feel like giving my doctor apersonalized gift as a way to say thank you for his help. I realize that he gets paid anyway, but at least he listens when we talk about what is going on, and how we feel.

One of our friends has a problem with continuous pain and has tried a lot of different drugs to get relief. I wonder if she was told about this one?

It works, but drowsy

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

Yes, the new medication works. Relief is wonderful. The only drawback that I can see is that it makes me drowsy.

It takes longer in the morning for me to function. I slur my words, and my balance is not quite right. As the day goes along, it gets better. At least I can now feel what the absence of pain is like.

Of course, if I bang my shin, it still hurts, but my joints are no longer feeling as if they are on fire.

New Medication

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

Lately I have been having trouble with my pain levels increasing. This is in spite of taking Ultram.

Went to the doctor and he suggested using a new (for me) medication called Amitriptylin. In high doses it is used to help alter moods. Well, I do not need the altering of my moods, but I do need some relief from pain. After months, it can get to you. He explained that in low doses, it will help my previous medicine work better. I will see what happens.

No Fun at all

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

We have been going through so much junk lately that it is trying to take all of our fun away.

First my husband is having pain and other stuff going on. Our vehicle had, yes, had been having trouble with a very bad leak in its gas line, and now our neighbor. He is getting a divorce from the druggie from hell, our other neighbor is a gossip and has been bugging the first poor man a lot.

Oy vey……I though that Payton Place was off the TV. Well, it seems like if it isn’t one thing it is another.

What is it that used to been done when you wanted to say something naughty and didn’t want to actually use the language? Oh yeah…=n09426p] ; a^&%()^&^

Hemorrhoids

Friday, January 15th, 2010

I know that this is a subject that is rarely talked about. My husband has trouble with these things, so does his mom.

I have been blessed to avoid them. Some people will want to get surgery, other will try natural hemorrhoid treatments, other will go for medical treatment that does not include the surgery option.

I have no idea what it is like to experience them. I hope that I never do. I have known others who were severely bothered and those people went through some serious bother. Whatever each person experiences, it is up to them to determine what they will do, and how they will do it.

Tomorrow

Monday, January 4th, 2010

Tomorrow, he will be operated on. My husband that is.

He has been waiting for this to happen since the beginning of November of 2009. Thank God he has not been waiting 12 months, but it has been long enough. I have a bag ready with stuff to keep me occupied while he is in surgery. If I had any promotional items that I could share, I know there will be a lot of other people waiting also.

He is nervouse about this. It is occurring in a very personal place, so the nervousness is understandable. He is also impatient top get it over with and no longer will he need to be catheterized. I mentioned in earlier posts that he considers it to be another type of torture. Well, time will tell. He is sleeping right now and I hope that he is getting the rest that he needs for tomorrow.
