Aww, Dex--See?  See what I've done with my pathetic, sorry-ass posts?  I made you cry--oh, I feel like such a shit--I'm so sorry  :-\

Please forgive me--I never wanna make anyone cry--unless it's in a sexual nature--and I'm totally monogamous so you don't qualify  :biggrin:

But thanks for the support--it means a lot--I'm not giving up, I'm gonna fight!

And if it hurts when someone gives me a hug, so what?  It would hurt more if no one wanted to touch me!   :yes:
When somebody is suffering I always cry. Never ever feel bad for posting how you feel T. I'm always here with an open ear LOL!!! I'm glad to hear you're in a fighting mood. I know you would never give up, I just needed to hear you say it.  :yes:

Still no calls from Dr. Radiation--guess they've already taken off for the holiday so the results of my Cat Scan probably won't be in until January -- no worries. 
But if they leave me a message on my machine saying that they have the results and to call the office before 5 and I don't get home until 7 I'm going down there with an uzi   :mad:

Pretty damned rough to be honest  :rolleyes:

The pain pills the doc gave me are about as worthless as aspirin -- I'm supposed to exercise but how the hell can I do that when I can't move!  I walk like Fred Sanford and you should see me try to get off the toilet--real YouTube stuff!

Other than that--I guess I'm ok.  Attitude is good and that is about 90% of it right there.

So I take lots of hot showers and try to move as much as possible without killing myself.

I hope you get feeling better soon T.  :hug: See that hug didn't hurt did it ?  :smile: Last year, I had a virus that gave me such pain I couldn't hardly move. My body hurt sooo bad that everytime I moved my legs, I'd sit and cry. I had no grip in my hands whatsoever. I couldn't even zip my jeans at different times. It was horrible. I had a rash all over my forearms. I went to the doctor and he thought it was Lupus. He did tests, and sent me to a dermatologist. The dermatologist thought it was Lupus or Scleraderma. He did biopsies and sent them to Mayo. They came back inconclusive. This went on for over a month. The doctor treated me with Prednisone. Finally, I got better. Their explanation for all of this, thousands of dollars later..... an unidentified virus.  :spooked: I've had lingering side effects, such as muscle weakness, thinning hair, discolored fingernail beds, and diminished grip in my hands.So, I'm not sure what the hell happened, but I found out about 7 years ago, I have a predisposition to Systemic Lupus, and initially when I got the virus, they thought it was the onset of full blown Lupus. See, that's why I hate doctors, most of them don't have a clue.  :mad: So, I understand the frustration and depression. Chin Up Dahling!!!!!!!! You're gonna whip this in no time flat.  :hug:

Oh, I'm gonna be fine--not worried a bit.  I'm a little tired cuz I gave my boss the rest of the week off and I've had to do his work and mine but that's my only complaint today!

I didn't know you went through all that, dahling  :(  Poor thing!  Especially when you work with your hands all the time -- that loss of grip must suck!

It was frustrating as hell to not have any grip in my hands. :mad: I couldn't use a can opener to save my ass. There were times when the pain was sooo bad, I couldn't even get out of a chair by myself. Hubby had to help me. That was soo frustrating sometimes I'd just sit and bawl. Thank God that's over. I hope I never get that again.  :no:

That's exactly how I am when I don't have any pain meds -- I'm really beginning to hate pills  :rant:

I think the key is exercise--and I gotta find out what I need to take or eat to build up my bone marrow.  I really think that is the reason for the pain.

No pain meds?  :spooked: I think excercise helps a lot if you're able to do it.  :yes:

I'm taking glucosamine and chondroitin tabs along with Aleve a couple times a day until I see the doc on Monday.  Then he'll probably give me some pain meds.  I hope I don't have to take them but it's nice to have on hand.

Speaking of hand......got mine x-rayed today--we'll see on Mon if I have a stress fracture or not  :rolleyes:

Stress fracture?  :spooked:  Yikes. what did you do? I wasn't sure if you had started radiation or not. I'm sure you'll handle it smashingly Dahling.  :yes:
