Guest guest Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I thought I was doing so much better too..Doing everything I was told...all the right supplements, off the lyrica and onto the topamax (less swelling and additional weight loss benefits), exercising at the gym three times a week, and then the three sugar cookies Tuesday after NO sugar for 4 months. Then the horrible storms Wednesday nite and I have been in the worst pain ever since then. Every muscle in my body hurts, my head hurts, even my bladder hurts. I can not believe it - I thought I was so much better. I had forgotten just how bad it can get. Having 20 people here tomorrow for my grandson's birthday and I just want to crawl in a hole and pull my dirty house after me. So yes, I do think this dam disease progresses no matter what we do and I think that stinks!!! BUT I have do not time for a pity party so I have to postpone it for now- now if my body will just get me thru the next 24 hours I will collapse and totally give in, again!!

I almost couldn't walk to my truck to go pick up my daughter from school! this morning I can hardly move at all! legs arms back...worse than ever! it really does seem to get worse with each flare up. my daughter came into the bathroom this morning because she heard me crying, my poor baby didn't know what to say or do, she just gave me a hug ,then I told her to finish getting ready for school. she's just 7. wether my insurance finaly came through or not I am picking up the flexerill today, one more they can reimburse me for when they pull their heads out. $ 135 already. the boys have fixed my wheelchair..just in case. sweet, but theres nothing I hate more than that P.O.S. ya know. God please don't let it come to that. I haven't needed it in 5 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 The damn monster always comes back. It sucks. Yes it is progressive and I don't care what doctor says it is not. It is like living in hell that no one else can see but you. Hang in honey. I can't imagine how you are going to hold up to the birthday party. After that, rest, rest and rest some more. That is an order. LOL. so sorry to hear this. And the other person that wrote about the leg pain. I am so sorry to hear that too. We just never know what will set the monster off. I so hope both of you find some kind of relief. love and hugs, Debra V. jessiejo10@... wrote: I thought I was doing so much better too..Doing everything I was told...all the right supplements, off the lyrica and onto the topamax (less swelling and additional weight loss benefits), exercising at the gym three times a week, and then the three sugar cookies Tuesday after NO sugar for 4 months.
