Guest guest Posted August 8, 2001 Report Share Posted August 8, 2001 Good grief Jo!!! Good thing Mac is there to help you lift. Be careful.. This is so scary for you. Take care!! Hugs and much Love Sharon Re: Re: JO BIRDIE THEY THINK IT IS CAUSED PARTLY FROM SMOKING AND THE REST FROM THE CHEMICALS THEY SPRAY ON THE FIELDS HERE. THEY CLEAN OUT THE CROP DUSTERS CLOSE TO WHERE WE ALL LIVE OR DID LIVE. THEIR HANGAR AND CHEMICALS ARE ABOUT 4 HOUSES DOWN FROM WHERE I LIVE AND WHAT COMES OUT OF THE SPRAY TANKS GETS IN THE DITCHES AND CARRIED IN THE AIR ALL MIXED TOGETHER AND IT GETS INTO OUR GROUND WATER THAT GETS PUMPED OUT FOR US TO DRINK, CLEAN WASH AND SHOWER IN. I TOOK A SAMPLE IN TO MY ALLERGIST WHEN THEY WERE TESTING ME AND EVERYTHING IN THE WATER FROM IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE WAS TOXIC. THAT IS WHY I WATCH MY GRANDSON LIKE A HAWK WHEN HE IS OUT SIDE AND WILL NOT LET HIM NEAR A LOT OF PLACES IN THE YARD.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2001 Report Share Posted August 16, 2001 thank you jo. she's starting to come down today. the shrink still hasn't shown up. her blood pressure goes up at night. weird. last night it was 220/120. i think the dr may keep her longer now. you have had a rough row to hoe my friend. and i really appreciate your sharing your experience with me. one of my friends now is BP i believe and have mercy she has gotten herself into a financial nightmare. but she tells me she likes feeling the way she does. she is very intelligent and a successful artist. and i love her dearly but she scares me sometimes. she just goes off on strangers in the store or parking lot--someday she's going to get the crap beat out of her. i get very tired around her too. all that energy just spinning around and around.... i don't think there is anything easy about this illness. hugs, caro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2001 Report Share Posted August 16, 2001 CARO ITS NOT EASY AND TAKES YEARS TO EVEN GET THE RIGHT DX FOR IT. TRUST ME WHEN I SAY IF YOUR FRIEND WAS IN THE HIGH STAGE IF SOME ONE BEAT THE CRAP OUTOF HER SHE WOULD LAUGH IN THEIR FACE THE WHOLE TIME THEY WERE BEATING HER BEEN THERE DONE THAT ONE LOL. ITS NOT ALL THAT BAD WHEN YO ARE GOING TROUGH IT LIKE I SAID I LOVED TE HIGHS HAD SO MUCH ENERGY AND NO ONE ELSE CAN KEEP UP WITH YOU BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO SLEEP AND REST AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT YOU NEVER GET TIRED OR EVEN SLEEPY LOL. I USED TO HAVE WHAT I CALLED SHIFT BUDDIES LOL ONE OR TWO FOR EACH 12 HOUR SHIFT AND STILL WORE THEM OUT. I WOULD CLEAN UP MY HOUSE 5-6 TIMES THEN GET BORED TRYING TO FIND SIOMETHING ELSE TO DO THERE AREONLY SO MANY TIMES IN 1 DAY YOU CAN REARRANGE THE WHOLE HOUSE AND YOU CAN'T CLEAN SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN CLEANED ALREADY. I USED TO GO TO MY FRIENDS HOUSES AT 3AM AND START CLEANING THEIR HOUSE. THE ONLY TIME THEY EVER COMPLAINED WAS WHEN I MADE THE BED UP WITH THEM IN IT LOL AND YES I DID LOL. BUT AS FAR AS BEING RUFF ITS NOT THAT BAD PLUS YOU HAVE ALL THESE FUNNY STORIES TO LOOK BACK ON SO DURING A LOT OF THE BAD TIMES YOU CAN STILL HAVE SOME REALLY GOOD LAUGHS. ESPECIALLYWHEN SAID FRIENDS GET TOGETHER AND COMPARE YOU NOW TO THEN AND TELL THINGS ON YOU YOU DIDN'T KNOW YOU DID. IT ISROUGH ON THE FAMILIES THOUGH BECAUSE THEY NEVER KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN AND NEVER KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE UP OR DOWN OR BOTH TOGETHER. I THANK GOD FOR FINALLY GETTING THE RIGHT TREATMENT BUT IT TOOK A WHILE TO GET JUST THE RIGHT COMBO SO THAT I WASN'T DOWN ALL THE TIME. THE LITHUIM TAKES AWAY THE HIGHS BUT DOESN'T DO MUCH FOR THE LOWS AND AFTER MORE ANTI DEPRESSANTS THAN I CAN COUNT I HAVE FINALLY GOTTEN ONE THAT I NO LONGER HAVE TO FIGHTTO KEEP THE LOWS AWAY EVERYDAY. EVEN HELPS WITH THE DEPRESSIONTHAT GOES ALONG WITH THESE DDS. LUV JO http://community.webtv.net/jowaca/JOSFAVORITEPICTURES thank you jo. she's starting to come down today. the shrink still hasn't shown up. her blood pressure goes up at night. weird. last night it was 220/120. i think the dr may keep her longer now. you have had a rough row to hoe my friend. and i really appreciate your sharing your experience with me. one of my friends now is BP i believe and have mercy she has gotten herself into a financial nightmare. but she tells me she likes feeling the way she does. she is very intelligent and a successful artist. and i love her dearly but she scares me sometimes. she just goes off on strangers in the store or parking lot--someday she's going to get the crap beat out of her. i get very tired around her too. all that energy just spinning around and around.... i don't think there is anything easy about this illness. hugs, caro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2001 Report Share Posted August 16, 2001 jo--she had breast cancer--removal.chemo & radiation which has left hersusceptable to respratory stuff. she will never slow down until she collapses. i mean you can hear her chest rattle and she'll be mucking out stalls. i never thought about her not really feeling it. she never gets it when her partner gets sick & goes to bed--it really annoys her. now isn't that interesting--i'll have to ask her about that...caro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2001 Report Share Posted August 20, 2001 JO... ALL I CAN SAY IS " WOW " !!!! 8^) CARO FROM BEING THERE SEVERAL TIMES SHE IS HAPPY AND EVERYTHING SHE GETS OFF HER CHEST SO TO SPEAK HELPS THE INSIDE TO HEAL. I LOVE THE MANIC HIGHS EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT HIGHS AND LOWS BUT I WAS SO HAPPY REFUSED TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BRING ME DOWN. I WAS HAPPY GO LUCKY AND SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEATEN THE CRAP OUT OF ME AND I WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN LAUGHING AT THEM. I HAD ENERGY COULD DO ANYTHING I WANTED TO THE ONLY DRAW BACK IS PPLALWAYS THINK YOUARE ON SOMETHING AND YOU THINK YOU CAN DO ANYTHING AND HAVE ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD OR I DID AND OTHERS I KNOW WHO HAVE BP ARE THE SAME WAY. ALSO WHEN YOU ARE ON A HIGH YOU DON'T FEEL PAIN EITHER SO BE SURE SOMEONE IS KEEPING AN EYE ON HER CAUSE SHE COULD HURTHERSELF REALLY BAD AND NEVER FEEL IT. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU MAYBE UNDERSTAND SOME OF IT HIGHS ARE GREAT MOST OF THE TIME BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF DRAWBACKS AND SOMETIMES A HIGH WILL MIMIC ALTZ AND YOU FIND YOURSELF SOMEWHERE HAVE NO IDEA HOW YOU GOT THERE AND MAY NOT EVEN BE ABLE TO TELL SOMEONE WHAT YOUR NAME IS OR WHERE YOU LIVE.THEY THIN YOU ARE EITER REAL HIGH ON SOMETHING OR REALLY DRUNK I HAVE BEEN PICKED UP FOR BEING DRUNK IN PUBLIC OR OR ON SOMETHING AND HAD TO SUBMIT TO ALL KINDS OF BLOOD WORK AND BLOWING INTO THOSE LITTLE MACHINES BECAUSE I COULD NOT PASS THE FIELD TEST AND EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO BOOZE ON MY BREATH ACCUSED OF BEING DRUNK. I WAS ALWAYS TOLD I AM SORRY BUT YOU WERE ACTING LIKE YOU WEREDRUNK OR HIGH AND I WAS DONG MY JOB. BUT I ALWAYS LVED THE LOOKS OF CONFUSION ON THEIR FACES AND SAYING I TOLD YOU I WASN'T DRUNK OR HIGH ON DRUGS LOL. JUST HOPE AND PRAY WHEN SHE CRASHES BECAUSE SHE WILL THAT IT ISN'T TOO HARD ON HER. BUT PLEASE ABOVE ALL BE THERE FOR HER CAUSE EVEN IF SHE DOESN'T KNOW IT SHE REALLY NEEDS ALL THE SUPPORT SHE CAN GET AND AS FOR AS YOUR BROTHER GOES MAYBE ITS TIME HE KNEW WHAT SHE HAS LIVED WITH FOR YEARS AND WHAT YOU HAVE KNOWN FOR SO LONG AND CARRIED IT ALL ON YOUR SHOULDERS ALONE.
