Snowy Sunday - Judy and Jeanne

[Guest guest]

Judy and Jeanne - we're under a blizzard warning here in County

- I know you're both due for a bunch of snow too. But of course,

before the snow started we had to have about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of

freezing rain - bunch of branches down and everything is covered in

ice - now it's snowing like mad. They're calling for 10 to 14 inches -

geez, this after the 10 or so we just got on Thursday - good thing

hubby finally went and bought that snowblower yesterday (he kept

putting it off because he thinks he's superman). I'm pretty sure the

incoming storm had something to do with the fact that I had been

hurting pretty bad the last two days. It's almost like you can

forecast the weather - the more you hurt, the worse the weather. Hope

you're both okay down there with this nasty storm.

Hi Teri

It's Mon. and the storm has passed. We got mostly rain from the storm, but of

course now it's frozen and everything is a mess. How much snow did you get? I

can't wait for spring. This whole winter I have been flaring with one system

after the next.

I wanted to mention also how I was diagnosed with panic disorder back in 95.

I was on paxil ever since, with no panic attacks. In Jan. my dr took me off

paxil and started me on cymbalta. It scared me, thinking the panic attacks

could return, but so far, so good. I would personally rather live through the

fibro pain than to ever have another panic attack. Oh gosh, those are so scary,

you're certain you are going to die!

This morning my fibro wanted to attack my hands as well, and it's hard to

type. So I well sign off. Stay warm and think spring!!!

Hugs, Judy

1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as

to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some

treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain

health conditions or just dangerous in general.

2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be

afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation

better.

3. To unsubscribe the e-mail is:

Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe

4. Also, it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad at the

same time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially take something

another member says the wrong way. And that includes the things that one member

may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) even though we who deal

with illness whether one such as fibro or multiple illnesses try to keep a sense

of humor.

5. Pls let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day pls let

us know so that we can do our best to offer our support.

Have a nice day everyone.

I hope y'all get some nice weather soon. I understand the flaring. Hope that

improves also.

Take care,

We got only a dusting of snow. We had the freezing rain. DH went out to get

the paper and decided not to go to church. Everything was coated with ice. Now

today we are getting snow, supposed to be just a couple inches. Hope you are

unburying yourselves and that your roof hold up. Take care.

Thanks . The forecasters say we may actually make it through this week

without any major snow. That's the first time since Christmas they've been able

to say that.
