Guest guest Posted August 19, 2003 Report Share Posted August 19, 2003 Hey ...believe me if anybody knows how you feel it's me. I spend my weekends in bed most of the time especially Saturdays. I am so wore out, wiped out, physically, and mentally exhausted, and usually hurt so much from working 40 hours that all I do is stay in bed, watch tv, and nap on and off all day. Now mind you I sit at a computer all day at work so I am not doing anything much physically during those 40 hours to be sore from work. I can tell you that after doing nothing all day, I am so stiff and sore it's hard to walk even taking my pain med. I have a feeling that you've got something else going on like maybe RA or some osteoarthritis? Have you asked your doctor to check you for RA or even maybe fibromyalgia? There is no blood test or xray or any real " scientific " type of test for fibro but if the doctor is knowledgeable about it, he'll know what to do. I know it's hard girl but some kind of exercise will help with the stiffness, even if it's just walking around inside your house with your jammies on LOL. Take care and go ahead and vent your frustrations out whenever you feel like it!

But dont worry..I totally understand THEIR need to both light up their cigarrettes at the same time and blow them in my direction.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I guess what drives me nuts is when I am hospitalized she is great, always making sure I am being monitored properly..nurses are doing their jobs etc. but I guess because I am not in the hospital I must be fine. They just stopped by to drop something off, said, oh maybe we should hook up some power in the boat so you can neb. I dont want that, I just want to be able to go home when I want!

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Well here's what you do... Get a big old leather belt then wrap it around their chest and cinch it up till it hurts, then gray tape their mouth and nose shut except for 2 little holes for small straws to go through; thats what I feel like.
