Liz, I wanted to tell you cause, you are right about those pills. i

could see it happening. I dont like those pills EITHER! oh he is

basically dying. he is 6 feet tall and 114 lbs, on 13 medicines, chf,

copd, and oxy's besides. RIDICULOUS! But no matter there, i still

THINK those pills is what out him over the edge. Pretty sure of that.

in my opinion, tho of course the doctor thinks its ok.the more

medicines the better! cindy

yes I am seeing someone to help me but I am hoping around from house to house

because I cant not sleep here at my own house in the night time.

My best friend Ish died in the night and was dead about 5 hours when I found him

and I heard him get up and I guess fall-- but I did not go to see.

Earlier in the evening he said his throat was tight and I asked three times to

call the ambulance but he said NO three times. I even asked to google tight

throat and he said no. I found him dead and I am living each day and night in

total fear.

My house and home has been violated. I used to feel safe here and now I do not.

People are saying that I need to go on and not feel this way.

But no one has even had this happen to them. How can they all talk to me this

way and then to make things much worse, My best friend of 20 years came here and

turned into a vulture-- inappropriate and self centered and I had to get her out

of my home.

I am so traumatized. It is horrendous for me and I am living in a night mare.

I have one lady friend but she works and has a family, They there are two

Pentecostals that say there are demons in me and my home-- not really a healthy

support for me right?

They are not of my background or my faith they think that we are demons filled

and even if you are Christian you have demons still.

I have so much anger and bitterness right now. It was good for my friend to die

here BUT NOT for me.

I have therapy once a week and they are going to take me through the trauma

until it is desensitized. I am not into that because already I am trying to push

it behind me.

I am merely existing and no one calls from the church. Too old of a

congregation.

over 70. So i am as usual pretty much all alone and my family? that is a big

joke.

They are all simpletons.

I wish you were nearer to me.

Thank you for emailing me

Annie

I understand, i really do. I am having sort of similiar feelings but

not as bad as your getting. i told my boyfriend there was evil in my

house(dad) and i needed to get rid of it. I am not even a religous

person either. i dont go to church, altho i guess i believe in a god.

But the evil is there. I have nightmares about him..... i opened all

the windows, took all his things down and threw them out. Its getting

better. Dont go over that in your mind. It was his time and god took

him. you will see him again some day. Look at it this way annie. it

was his time, and wouldnt it be better for him , to die at your

house, where he was comfortable, with someone he cared about, You. at

your home, than die in a cold clinical HOSPITAL! thats not evil,

that is ok. I would like to go that way. fast and at home. cindy---

I read the whole post. I am so sorry ur mother treats u the way she does. It

breaks my heart that she could treat her own flesh n blood so badly. My boys bio

mom is bitchy like that. She won't even lend the oldest $5 to cross bridge to

spend time with his father...even though she would get her money back in a

couple hours. She has plenty of money to hit the bar with her friends though.

Her new husband makes more than we do, but she's always broke n we end up paying

for everything for those boys. I love them but can't stand their mother. It's

her way or the highway....NOT....I don't waste my time on her.

It's so difficult when the mom who's supposed to love u unconditionally with no

strings attached is the one person who treats u so badly.

I wish I could lend u my mom, but she's in CA in the hospital.

always

obnoxious, belligerent, condemning....she is never nice to me. I have NEVER done

one

thing she is proud of or right (according to her). I think I mentioned that when

my father

was living he kept her in check and wouldn't let her treat me like this. When I

got the

phone call my father had passed, after I cried for hours and managed to pull

myself

together, I am not kidding, the first thought I had was fear.......fear of my

mother. I

wondered how she was going to start treating me. She started at the funeral! I

know

this is a site for discussing our stimulators, but I'm hoping everyone

understands how

we need to vent also. I have one more thing to point out about how petty my

mother

is. My father was retired military and retired from Phizer (sp?). My mother is

retired

Federal Civil Service (GS-14 which is very high). They were very well off, I

wouldn't

say they were rich, but they were very, very comfortable. My mother gets her

retirment,

plus retirement from Phizer, 1/2 of my father's military retirement. Their house

was paid

for - a very nice house!! My mother did sell the house after my father passed

and moved

to a really, really nice apartment (huge!!), because she didn't want to be

bothered with the

maintenance. She is in perfect health at the age of 73. Never been sick other

than a cold

her entire life. When I was married my husband made a lot of money and we had a

huge

house, pool, you name it. My mother came every summer so she could swim (so she

said).

When my husband left me when I started getting sicker, she blamed me, sided with

him. I

eventually lost everything, lost the house I bought after the divorce, all my

retirement from my

job......because I had to sell the house (couldn't afford it not working),

needed the retirement

$$ to pay medical bills (I went for a while without insurance). She throws that

in my face that

I had this huge beautiful house and everything I had and says she could have had

a house

just as nice but SHE didn't want to waste her money. My husband found the house,

picked

the house, not me. I think she does it to rub it in my face because now I'm

living on SSD, have

Medicare with an expensive supplement, live paycheck to paycheck. And my mother

sneaks

behind my back and calls my oldest daughter to see if I'm spending any money on

things I

shouldn't (like buying something for my grandson from my other daughter). She

blames me

for my condition, my situation. She calls me monthly to ask how much my bills

were for the

month, EVERY bill; electric, medications, etc. Why do I put up with this?

Because I'm weak

and she does send me money sometimes when she thinks I really need it. I found

out I'm diabetic

and everyone knows how expensive it is to really eat correctly. I'm trying, and

she told me I

shouldn't be doing that, my doctor is stupid, if I can't afford it I should just

eat what I can afford to

eat. Right now I'm controlling it with diet and a pill, I darn sure don't want

to have to give myself

shots!!!! She doesn't understand that....she says I would just have to deal with

it.

OK, I'm sorry, I apologize to everyone. I hope most of you just deleted this

when you saw it was

a sob story. I won't do it again. I should be stronger like you, Deb, and just

break off contact.

But her occasional money comes in handy, so I just tolerate it. But the day

might come.

Take Care,

E. remember child protective have to check out every complaint no matter what they are only doing their jobs and alot of times they hate it. and alot of time i have found some don't even have kids of their own so they don't have personal experience of how to handle kids so don't take it personal just keep it cool. it is hard but needs to be done! esp. in front of them, one small step is better than losing it in the long range i know i did and i ended up losing my kids, i was a good mom but i told a worker were to go and how to get there when i shouldn't have and her lawyer, so in the end i decided i knew i had to for my kids sake as they were special needs to sign them over to be adopted out. it was the hardest thing to do as the twins were 3 and my son was 5yrs old but a month after i did i went in for heart surgery that i had less than 30% chance of surviving and i have PPMS. so i knew for them i

had to do it as i didn't want them to see me in and out of hospitals so far i have been lucky but things have gone down hill. anyway i also need some encouragement i tomorrow go to see the dr as i have been having pain like a tight band around my chest and sharp pains in my stomach area so i am getting it checked the dr told me 6yrs ago i had 5yrs to live so i am happy i was also told i would end up in a w/c in 3yrs i us only a electric one when outside and backs of chairs and the dog cage to pull myself up. and am shaking most of the time now and need to talk to him about my bowels as it scares me too much, i am sorry to vent. BUT DON'T BE A FOOL LIKE I WAS DO WHAT THEY SAY DON'T GET BULL HEADED LISTEN AND IF THEY SAY JUMP SAY HOW HIGH AND WHEN AND DO IT! k

E. remember child protective have to check out every complaint no matter what they are only doing their jobs and alot of times they hate it. and alot of time i have found some don't even have kids of their own so they don't have personal experience of how to handle kids so don't take it personal just keep it cool. it is hard but needs to be done! esp. in front of them, one small step is better than losing it in the long range i know i did and i ended up losing my kids, i was a good mom but i told a worker were to go and how to get there when i shouldn't have and her lawyer, so in the end i decided i knew i had to for my kids sake as they were special needs to sign them over to be adopted out. it was the hardest thing to do as the twins were 3 and my son was 5yrs old but a month after i did i went in for heart surgery that i had less than 30% chance of surviving and i have PPMS. so i knew for them i

had to do it as i didn't want them to see me in and out of hospitals so far i have been lucky but things have gone down hill. anyway i also need some encouragement i tomorrow go to see the dr as i have been having pain like a tight band around my chest and sharp pains in my stomach area so i am getting it checked the dr told me 6yrs ago i had 5yrs to live so i am happy i was also told i would end up in a w/c in 3yrs i us only a electric one when outside and backs of chairs and the dog cage to pull myself up. and am shaking most of the time now and need to talk to him about my bowels as it scares me too much, i am sorry to vent. BUT DON'T BE A FOOL LIKE I WAS DO WHAT THEY SAY DON'T GET BULL HEADED LISTEN AND IF THEY SAY JUMP SAY HOW HIGH AND WHEN AND DO IT! k

Well i hear you on the medicines. Scarey to think they cuttting you

back. I cant take any of that stuff. My system just cant take it. i

took hydrocodone once for a toothache, and i was right in la la land.

So luckily i dont need pain meds. But I always thought traction would

be a good idea. The case is going good, very slow, i have a big

surprise for them. I'll tell you as soon as anything happens. what

kind of pain does your neck give you Annie? what does it feel like?

UGG. Does that sharp pain feel like that sciatica thing in a persons

hip? Thats a sharp pain type.I used to get like a burning searing

pain.Stiff, cant turn my head, but no neck pain. It manifests itself

as face pain in me. i remember years back, i had an upper back pain.

It felt like a KNIFE, does it feel like that Annie? Getting old isnt

for wussies, heck we arent even that old yet!

Thanks Mike, I'll call them Monday. I knew both Dallas & Fort Worth had bus

service but neither came in to the Mid-Cities area. Hopefully they can direct

me to the right people who can help.

U have cpap too? So do I. It made a big difference when I first got it. It was

like night n day! I hate having to wear a mask every night but I hate the side

effects of not wearing it even more!

Yes, I do have Advanced Bionics stim and a black charger. It's the second one

I've had, the first one (same type) stopped working after a year. But I've never

just have to pull the back part of my pants down a few inches. So it's exposed

and shouldn't be overheating. I've done it like this since I've had it. And

sometimes it has me charged up but doesn't do the double beep....so I don't know

I'm charged......I take it off, the green light is on but it doesn't beep at all

to tell me it's not on my stim. I turn it off then back on and it starts beeping

and when I put it over my stim it double beeps. It's just doing crazy things. I

go this next week on Friday to Pain Mgt (who did my stim), I'm going to call

them the beginning of the week and see if they can make sure there is a rep

there for me to talk to. I've been pretty lucky so far if I needed to talk to a

rep, it

seems there is almost always one in the office on my appt day. I'm just scared

to wait and have it stop working completely. Even though when the other one

stopped, the company overnighted me a new charger....but that's been 1 1/2

years, who knows how long it would take this time if I need one. And I have

different insurance, I was on Cigna (COBRA) when I got my stim and now I'm on

Medicare. I'm sure they'd have to get it approved through Medicare. It took me 3

months to get a new CPAP machine approved with Medicare. So I'm just trying to

stay one step ahead of a possible disaster.....my stem going dead!!!

I think I remember you saying you have the Advanced Bionics stim. Do you have

the new black charger? If you do, it does take longer to charge than the older

one. Once I got the new charger, I found it was taking much longer to charge

than the older one. I spoke to the company, and was told that it will. The new

charger has a heat sensor in it. If it gets too hot, it will shut off, then turn

back on, taking longer to charge. Hope this helps.

LUPUS? I hope its not that one. annie? i have a weird thought. Has anything

bitten you? like a bug of some kind? reason i ask is my uncle got bit last year

by something, and he got sick like that.Like maybe a tick? lime disease? The flu

like symptoms strike me odd. Altho i dont know that much about auto immune

disease, just RA. But i have another thought for you. They say and have studied

that a severe trauma( emotional one) can bring on a disease like RA. They think

there is a connection. hope you feel better, maybe it will work out of your

system. cindy

I always have creep news. The latest is this: CREEP said he wrote in his wife's

name, on my fathers insurance form. Creep wrote in HIS wife as beneficiary.

Actaully WROTE his wife in there.And he admits it too! he has pancreatic cancer

now!   We filed a court order to go to his house to look for all our things, and

they are not letting us go in. So next week the judge is going to decide, and

he'll probably wonder what they are hiding? and let us in with a court order.

SHOOT! Lets hope its not lupus. But isnt lupus more of an organ type of

arthritis annie.? I knew a lady with lupus and yes she did hurt, but not that

bad. What lupus was doing was attacking her organs, but she had it for years and

years and years.

They did a study, my mother particvipated years back. And the medical community

were trying to connect a severe emotional upset with the onset of a immune

disorder like RA. It hasnt been very long since that awful thing happened to

you. I hope it didnt trigger something.
