I can see This is going to be a Longggg Haul...sigghh.



For the past Two Days, I have been feeling Very Crappy......and yesterday was the first time that I noticed the "knee problems" again.
While I was on the Pred., my knees were not hurting as much as if I WASN'T on the Pred.....and NOW, the Creaks & Pain....and the sound of "leather pants rubbing" IS BACK.

I woke up Stiff.....but not as bad as before, but you can 'bet your bottom dollar' that the Worst of the Stiffness WILL be back....no doubt.

I felt Really Horrible today (NO ENERGY AT ALL, among other things)....but I know the worst is yet to come (because I am not on the Pred. anymore)....I am not looking forward to it to say the least.

Something I am noticing though lately, is the fact that I have been having alot more Indigestion....not sure what THAT is all about, but it was sooo bad last night...I honestly thought I was going into a Heart Attack.
ANYTHING that I eat is causing it.....I will be letting my PCP know about that.

Today's ill health made it Very Difficult to care for my Grands.....but I did it, don't know how....but I did it.
It became much easier when my Granddaughter left....I LOVE HER TO DEATH, but she is Alot More active than my Grandson....she is a Ball of Energy....of which I had NONE of Today.
So when She went home...and it was just my Grandson & I, I wasn't as stressed and could deal with my illness better.....he is soooooooooo layed back and easy-going, I don't have to reprimand him as much as I have to do with my Granddaughter.
She is just sooooo inquisitive....Bless her lil heart, and does not stop inquiring....NOTHING stops her (unless she is ill that is, lol).

Anywho.....I have a long road ahead of me, and I just Pray to GOD that I will be able to Function enough to be an asset to My family & friends when they need me.




Thanks...........

Well....today's visit to the Pulmo. Doctor didn't go over too well either...sigghh.

Although HE was a Gem, his suggestions for me I wasn't too pleased with.

He wants me to go back to the Same Doctor that had his back to me the whole visit (the Rheumo.)...but I refused, and said that I will stick with the New Rheumo......until He messing up.



He also said that He doesn't think that it is Sarky that's bothering me......He says it is the Fibromyalgia......sigghhhh, once again...I think a doctor is Wrong.

I have NEVER read Anywhere, where it says that one with Fibromyalgia suffers with what "I" suffer with.....He also said that the symptoms I am describing are NOT of what one experiences with the Flu....(I told him that I have Flu Like Symptoms)....He said that they are in line with the Fibromyalgia.....aauuggghhh.....I am soooooooo frustrated to say the least.



He suggested that I get on some Medicine for the Fibromyalgia and see if that works....and I MAY have to try several of them till I find the one that Works.....and if NONE OF THEM WORK, Then he will try another route.....I tell ya, I am sooooooooooo tired of going to doctors right about now.



Again, I felt REAL comfortable with the visit with him....but I am not convinced that what I am experiencing is from Fibromyalgia......I WILL STAND BY MY THOUGHTS OF IT BEING SARKY!!!





Soooo....the prays will continue.

Had a "blahhh" day today......

I am not sure what is going on....and Why, but....for the past couple days, I noticed that my Sarky Symptoms are coming on stronger than normal with the Pred.

This morning I woke up with extreme pain in my Hips, Spine, Up & Down my legs....and few other spots I can't remember, but I know that it was there.....ANDDD, I feel like crap!!!
I am sooo weak, and sore all over...I feel like I did a ton of exercises the day before.....and I hadn't done Anything.
I refrained from taking any Pain Pills.....don't have much left and what I do have, I may need for a more severe case of the Sarky's.

It really seems like the Pred. is wearing off on me...ALL Day Long I was feeling like this, CRAPPY....but I was trying to hold it together because I had to care for the Grands.
I am praying that tomm. proves to be a better day.....I really felt like staying in the bed all day today.
I am starting to get really worried Now.....because if NO ONE can come up with a Plan to rid me of these symptoms so that I can function day-to-day....What will become of Me.
I won't be able to care for the Grands....Or anyone else for that matter, even Myself....I will literally be Bedridden....and I'm not joking.

I called and made an appt. with a Pulmonologist....and that is set for July 6th (GOD Willing), I tried to get it for a sooner date....but wasn't able to get a slot for the early morn.....Oh Well, it is only two weeks away.
I had called my PCP to see if he can take me off the Pred.....just so "I" can see what will happen, but he suggested that I stay on it until I see the Pulmy. doctor.


Ooohhh, I dread to find out how the next few days are going to be like......

No News, is Good News..."Well, That's what they Say"!!!


I was told that I needed to "update" my Blog with some info....lolol, but to be honest.....I really haven't a thing to say.....which I am not sure if that is Good Or Bad, lolol.

I am still having Hip & Spine Pain....and it is REALLY hurting today, I think it is because of the Rain we are having.
Other than that....nothings changed.


I am still waiting to hear back from SSI/SSDI.....but they did say it would take a few months before I'd hear Anything.
I spoke with a friend of mine yesterday, and she gave me a Name & Number to Her Lawyer....so, I am waiting to hear what they say...and if I AM denied, then I will be giving this guy a call.

I've become a Facebook Junkie...lololol, and loving it up, lolol...I'm able to be in touch with my Family & Friends.....so that nice!!!

Also, waiting for next week to roll around....my youngest Son is about to Graduate from High School (he is the one that is Physically & Mentally Challenged).....it should be Very Exciting!!!


Well....that's it, For Now....Until next time.....!!!

THANKS.....for reading my Blog.

hhhmmm....wondering if Sarky is in My Nervous System Now??

I THINK.....since yesterday, I've been having this "twitch" in my Thumb on my Right Hand.
All of a sudden, out of nowhere....it will start twitching, and it even throws me off if I am in the process of doing something with That Hand.

It is a good thing that my New Rheumy. is asking that I see a Neurologist, because if this goes on for too long....I'm gonna need it looked into.


Alittle worried Now.......
