Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Prayers for Kate's daughter, and Margaret's husband, and all on the list who need them... Greetings and welcome to the new folks! Hope everyone is staying safe and warm- been having pretty decent weather here, after a nasty weekend (and more forecast for Monday). Got the pattern for a 6th sampler finished - now if we can just figure out the best set-up for printing them, and get the Etsy shop up and running! Otherwise was kind of a bad week - came down last Saturday with a shiny new something, muscle spasms on the right side of my back, localized right over the lower ribs, so strong and painful I couldn't stand upright or even breathe easily. Was like the hardest " stitch " ever! Muscle relaxants, pain meds, nothing touched it. When it came on really strong, my legs went out from under me as well.... And then the middle of the afternoon yesterday, it just.... STOPPED. No tapering off, just bam, gone. Lord have mercy, hope that one STAYS gone...I'm afraid to move around too much.... Done whining now... in WY " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Could it have been the MS hug, Tracey?What you describe is similar to something Iexperienced not long ago, but it was all aroundmy body, not just on one side. It feels like it issqueezing you and spasming at the same time.It is awful. I hope with you, that it doesn't comeback.blessings, Kate Catching up!To: MSersLife > Prayers for Kate's daughter, and Margaret's husband, and all > on the list> who need them...> > Greetings and welcome to the new folks!> > Hope everyone is staying safe and warm- been having pretty > decent weather> here, after a nasty weekend (and more forecast for Monday).> > Got the pattern for a 6th sampler finished - now if we can > just figure out> the best set-up for printing them, and get the Etsy shop up and > running!> Otherwise was kind of a bad week - came down last Saturday > with a shiny> new something, muscle spasms on the right side of my back, > localized right> over the lower ribs, so strong and painful I couldn't stand > upright or even> breathe easily.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 I think they need to put those audible tracking things, like the cordless phones have, on tv remotes too.. Did you try looking in the last place you'd look for it??.. always seems to be found in the last place you look..

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Beats me - I've had what I thought of as a " hug " before " , like a too-tight corset all around my ribs, all squeezy and weird. This was very localized - went from my spine (very precisely the RIGHT side, not even a twinge on the left) and stayed just on my back, and felt like broken ribs + huge stitch+ trying to turn inside out + worse than natural childbirth all at once - I wonder if it was ONE nerve playing with me? All that's left now is an area that's a little " buzzier " than the rest of me. Tell you what, I'm just surely happy it's GONE, whatever it was! :-) in WY " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...
