RLS Disability and Stuff

[Guest guest]

Hello All,

I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving and for those of you who do

not participate this particular Holiday, I hope that you had a " restful " day

anyway

For those of you who gave me info re Disability, I want to thank you. I will

be getting a Lawyer who will not charge a fee until successful and in my state

of mind, I need someone to act on by behalf. This lawyer specializes in

Disability only-I don't really like going this route, but what to do!? I pray

that all things work out. It's funny, because Disability acknowledges my

limitations and etc; but they still say that I can work-I can barely sit

and/or read d/t my vision going. I just got back my glasses and so far after 3

days, I haven't noticed too much difference. The eye ointment has helped alot

with my eye pain, but I have to use alot, meaning several times a day vs only

at bedtime. At least something helps for something

The Prevacid that I was taking for my stomach in order to take the Daypro

left me feeling like I was " messed up " ! if you know what I mean It was

making me sooo dizzy that it was causing nausea-know I now what my daughter

felt like before she would faint!! Her RLS/PLMD is worsening d/t the stress of

her Bulimia. She hasn't vomitted since she told me a few weeks ago. She is

trying to bring up her grades but she is so tired from lack of sleep. We can

all relate ! I need to call her Neuro, and I will e-mail the Pedi Neuro that

Dr. Levin suggested. I had meant to before, but as usual life got in the way.

I need to make a list of every family members name with all the items that

need to be addressed for each person. That way, I can visualize it and mark

things off as I go/ or add things I wonder if that would be too

overwhelming to look at ? I'll try it, and if it is, I'll rip it up!!

I started with the supposed sleep paralisis again. Also I'm kicking again at

night. I'm waking up exhausted, like I used too. This stinks, at least the RLS

was semi under control and was not in addition to my hip pain, but now I have

both, besides the other crap. The Daypro is not working. I think that it's

more muscular vs skelatal. I don't know, I'm just guessing. I have'nt done any

more research on this subject, because there's so may other disorders that are

simular, so I stopped because it was maddening. I might try again, but I'm not

a Doctor. I need to concentrate on all these issues that I have at home right

now.

I hope that Joyce is doing alright and I also hope that Eve is going to be

alright. I can't even imangine that kind of nightmare she must be going thru.

Eve, where ever you are, I pray that you are doing okay-I'll be thinking of

you. And for the rest of you, I also think of you often and wish that I could

participate more, but...

Take care and sleep well le R.I.
