TGIF


It's raining once again here........what else is new! lol :o) I want to say something thats very important. Please everyone.....Jackie, Hope floats really needs all of our prayers as she is in California where the fire storms are and they are getting close to her!
And....I misunderstood in my last entry. I had said that 2 of my friends have come up with this idea with The Giving Tree...sorry about that..(a blonde moment) it was just 1 of them! :o) Geesh....this morning is just not starting out very well! LOL :o) Goes to show ya' what my day is going to be like! lol But, LJ and I are backing Ang 100%! :o) You go girl! Wooo Hooo! :o)

Yesterday my grandson turned 17 months! Wow! Whew! Just can't believe how fast he's growing! :o) And boy he's learning so much and quick too! :o) He makes me laugh so hard! He reminds me of my daughter when she was that age! LOL Too funny! :o) He doesn't walk any more....he RUNS now! LOL :o)
Last night, my legs kept me awake. I got up at 11:00. Nothing that I tried worked. My husband was still up, and I asked him if he could rub out my calves. My calves were so tight you could see the "balls" of muslces bulging out! He came in my room, and I gave him some lotion. My right calve was the worse. Plus, my right leg is the one thats more numb as well. He started to rub it out, and I asked him to rub a lot harder then that, because I couldn't feel it at all! He was afraid of hurting the muscle. I told him the my physical therapist does it harder....so her did. Finally he did it and boy it felt so good and it hurt at the same time, it hurt, but a good hurt because I knew it would feel a lot better afterwards. He didn't like the idea that to get me to actually feel the massage, you have to rub so hard. He said that it's damaging the muscles by doing that. I don't know, all I know is that it feels so much better when it's done. And boy it did when he was done with both of them. :o) I was able to get back to sleep! :o)

This morning, my back is different. I do feel a big differance! The numbness has worn off. I can now feel my back. Even my spine. Now, I'm not totally sure what this means. Yes, I do have pain again, but it's not as bad as I was having. But, I can really feel the pain in the muslces in my back just like I was before. That was like a swift kick in the butt when I was trying to get out of bed! Ouchie! I just don't know whats going on. But, at least I did have a few days with out all of that pain! :o) That was great! :o) Not complaining! Very thankful and grateful! :o) So...I'll just do some more rest again today, and see if that helps. :o) It's not going to hurt! lol :o) I aso urinated myself  a lot this morning. :o( So...that makes me think if that has anything to do with the injections and the pains I have. I'm not sure. I do know thats pretty embarresing. But, if I having it happen to me because of this horrid illness, then I'm going to lay it out here on the line to maybe help someone else. :o) I still have my dignity! :o) By the way, if anyone has any questions at all for me....feel free to email me and ask! I'm more then welcome to answer! :o)
Thank all of you for your emails and comments! God does bless all of you! :o)

Morning!
It's still raining here too, so yuckky out. I was supposed to go to Neuro Doc today, but I just can't get myself together, the depressive mood is pulling me down. So I called & rescheduled. Know what you mean about a couple days without pain, that's great isn't it!!! I love those days! :) Glad you were able to get some rest, good you have a hubby like yours, he sounds sweet. Have been to Jackies, after she first posted. Keeping her in my prayers. Hope you have a nice weekend.
Hugs, Sugar

MY LEGS HURT ME ALL LAST NIGHT TOO. MY PAIN IS UNBAREABLE SOMETIMES, WITH JUST FIBROMYALGIA, I CAN'T AMAGINE THE PAIN YOU MUST SUFFER WITH 2 ILLINESS THAT AFFECT YOUR BONES AND MUSCLES. WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU. KEEP WARM. I WILL ALSO BE PRAYING FOR YOUR FRIEND IN CA. AND THE OTHERS OUT THERE IN DANGER OF THE FIRES.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND.
GOD BLESS,
LIZ

The epidural can also numb other nerves apart from the sensory ones. I.e., you may be incontinent as a result. But you have so many things wrong, Lisa, that I can actually only GUESS. Discuss it with your doctor.
