Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Hi Penny, I know all about the " scared/broke/tired/in pain " , I believe its something we can all relate to. Yes raising children under these conditions is more than a hand full. I had to raise both my girls by myself after my divorce. I don't know where the extra energy needed at times came from, But I always found it when it was truly needed. Best of luck and do keep us informed I (and I'm sure everyone here) really do care.

Hugs, Debbie Mc [ ] sweaty I recently read somewhere (probably one of the links found here!) that profuse sweating is one of the 10 signs of RA. I always blamed it on hormones until I read this. I always have to have a hankie handy to dab my forhead. I have been having a rough time of it for several weeks now. I went to the doc and he agreed I need to quit work. Being a mom to a 4 year old is work enuff he said! Im so scared/broke/tired/in pain, I cant take the first step...heck not even sure what it is.

Thanks for being > there friends, and welcome to the new members > Penny > 41 in portland oregon Penny I used to blame everything on my RA, now I am tired all the time,no energy and I am not sure what to blame it on, allergies, diabetes or RA. The broke part is scarey also, I put that in a message on this site and had some really good ideas. Don't know what to do about work or don't work. Hope you are feeling beter soon and hug that 4 year old that always helps. in WA (an Oregonian at heart) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Hi Penny: I was suspecting my hormones too! I have been more sweaty of late too. Granted, it is hot where I am, but I have never dripped, literally dripped, sweat before in my life. So, just another gift from RA, huh? Unbelievable how much it can change your life and your body, isn't it? So many new things I keep discovering about this disease and what it does to you. Thanks for the information.
