I have to agree Issie....I dont seem to have the pain I did as a child and

the docs say the pain tolerance has only altered but the frustration of simply

trying to live can be so overwhelming some days but hey, what do we do???we

just keep on keeping on huh...

hang tight, hang tough!

shortly after that I got a call from my rheumy to give the results of my

latest labs and xrays I had taken on Monday. I have been having a horrible time

with my leg(s) aching throughout the day and even more so at night so I went

to the doc reluctantly. Seems not only do I have scoliosis, I am dealing with

a new dx, sciatica..... and a get this, a fracture in my pelvic bone that I

knew nothing about or even how it could have happened....My pelvic area has

not been hurting! Or at least I don't think it has. geez, who knows anymore.

lol.

Then the hubby calls from ER to say he fell from a ladder while working and

is being stitched up and x-rayed. He has several abrasions, lacerations and

contusions along with a sprained ankle. Matt jammed a finger last night playing

football and we thought it was broke but luckily was not and at the moment

I am nursing him along with his hurt finger, he has picked up a virus and is

sick!!!!! So between me, the hubby and Matt, the bandages, antibiotic cream,

pain meds and pepto I am taking a break to simply say hang tight and hang

tough to all!

hangin tight and hangin tough as I keep on keepin on....

Oh my goodness Donna!! When it rains it pours in your house!! I am sorry

to hear about the additional diagnosis. I guess God felt you needed a few

extra things on your plate. Hang in there tough lady -- we'll be praying

for you!!
