Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Dear Sandy, While I am at a loss over what to suggest to avoid a full blown attack, I would advise that you find time to make peace with your distress and sense of loss over the death of your mother. I am so sorry to hear that this has happened. I know you had been working hard these last months to restore that which was lost a long time ago, and her death may only intensify this. She is at peace now, Sandy, and you should be, also. You did all you could and you deserve your solitude. Regarding your flare up, I don't know if keeping yourself medicated at all times will help, I have found with me that if it was a real full blown attack, that even with the medicine I had at my disposal, it was not enough to either stop the attack or provide enough adequate relief of the pain to avoid having to go to the hospital. It's always gotten to the point that only IV meds would work. I hope that you will be well, and that this is just a result of the stress of all you've had to go through, and just a flare up that quickly passes. You are in my prayers. With hope and prayers, Heidi Heidi H. Griffeth http://panassociation.org/anthology.htm#heidi South Carolina SC & SE Regional Rep. PAI, Intl.
