Re: Caught up - sort of

[Guest guest]

Angie,

Glad you enjoyed your trip, even though you got the lupus rose look

going on, there's some tan too!

It gets overwhelming sometimes to keep up with all the groups I'm on

(3 I think) plus the personal emails, etc etc., but I think we all do

the very best we can do.

I've been hurting mainly in my low back; since the meds are not

touching it and I've gained 10 lbs in a week, I have a call out to my

doctor because it could be that the renal insufficiency wasn't fully

cured when I was in the hospital and I'm having kidney issues (just

what I need, huh?).

DH is concerned because he had to help me up from a crouch 2 days

ago. I literally couldn't get up. He asked what I would do if it

happened and he wasn't here? Told him I would crawl to the closest

stable piece of furniture and then pull myself up. I pretty much

carry both phones around (cell and house) because I think - what if I

fall and can't get up? I may need to call 911, especially if there's

pain involved!

Glad you're back. I have my own pile of overnight emails to get thru!

starting too. Gotta have an up side!

something to take away this pain. It's like a full body vice grip

slowing getting tighter and tighter. I had an appt. with one of my

lawyers today so I couldn't stay in bed.

cry. Sometimes maybe I'm just in denial and think WTF - there's got

to be something that can be done about this.

Caught up - sort of

Hi everyone.

I scanned/read over 800 emails tonight. I'm overwhelmed over so much that has

gone on in just a few days. Especially the losses. I am so sorry to learn of

them. I don't know what to say. It's brought me to tears and left me speechless.

I'm beat. The spring break vacation was stressful. I began getting sick the

last few days. The last night I had a fever and horrible nightmares repeatedly

all night. It's not good to shout out in your sleep when you are in an RV with 7

other people.

I got a little sun; enough to make my face rash up right on the cheekbones so

far. I'm lupus-rosy in the face, NOT sunburn. Those of you with Lupus know the

drill. Of course, it was cool and windy and I didn't think I was getting much

sun. I had sunblock on. I'm not even sure when or how I got it. At least there's

a bit of a tan starting too. Gotta have an up side!

Today I hurt everywhere. So much I can't even pinpoint things because it hurts

all over. From my head to my feet. It's difficult to walk, etc. I'm pretty much

being a big baby about it. I hurt all over and I'm so tired of feeling like

this. I wish there was something to take away this pain. It's like a full body

vice grip slowing getting tighter and tighter. I had an appt. with one of my

lawyers today so I couldn't stay in bed.

OK enough of my whining. I'm calling it a night. I of course have a busy week

so I can't just hang out in bed. At least I have a doctor appt. tomorrow; I can

whine to her. I'm on all my meds and yet I can barely walk and I hurt all over.

I want to just sit and cry. Sometimes maybe I'm just in denial and think WTF -

I missed you guys. I'm sorry about my pity party.
