Have not needed the pain meds siince I got those shots, except the day after they wore off. Glad though. I hate them damn things. I have just been taking IBU.
Imuran has been working pretty swell for my swelling
So... doing better in joints that have been bothering me for a LONG time, but now... I have new joint pains and problems. Ya win some ya lose some. I am not well, well... not well enough to clean the house, but better.
I made a trip to wal-mart. Had to find the bench because of my left ankle & foot and then my right leg. But... I did get outta the house. YAY!!!
Getting outa the house is important just be careful.
I think I am going to try to go back to bed. Gosh...almost two am...who does a person have to pay to get some sleep around here?
Umm... for me it would be my son with cupcakes
Night
Joonie..........GET THE BLOODY SCOOTER AT WALMART!!!!!
take care ATTENTION ALL You can pay me! Send money orders directly to my residence (no personal checks accepted, cash is always good) and I will promptly send you a good night sleep. One full night with no bathroom breaks only 100.00 with one bathroom break regularly priced at 75.00 !!NOW ONLY 50.00!! Hey, Joonie. I had the weirdest pain last night. In both arms. It was really bad muscle pain. Like a soreness, not a spasm. It hurt in my forearms and in my upper arms between the shoulder and the elbow. It was bad enough that I had to get up and take an extra dose of anti-inflammatories. At first I thought I must be getting the flu, but other than the pain, I feel fine. Anyone else experience this? Hi Joonie, I'm glad you're doing better and I can understand why you resist using the scooter, but it might be the best option for you on some of your worse days. I'm doing quite well except the day after my flu shot (not sure if there's a connection) my left side started acting up again and lasted for three days. I know a few other people seemed to get some sort of flare after the shot but I'm not sure if that's what this is. I sleep better now that the meds have kicked in and I really feel for those of you still struggling with that. During my sleepless period I often ended up going into another room and turning on the TV to get my mind off of whatever was keeping me awake, (busy mind, pain, etc.). It really helped me and by using the timer on the TV I didn't have to worry about it being on all night. I know this might not be an option for everyone, but it might help someone, I hope. Hey Joon-bug!!!! So glad you are doing better!!!! I am doing pretty good also! I can walk with only a slight limp now and I am so happy about that!!!!! Only us would understand that we would be happy about limping!!!!
Hugs Mekarres - Yep, understand that one. I hate it when it plays out that way and even hate it more when I "plan" on doing something the next day and then cannot do it, and lucky if I make it outta bed.
kweenb - Nope do not think I have felt that. Most times when I notice my arm sore like that IS because someone punched me in the arm or I ran into the door facing
Kara - Sorry to hear last night was soo bad. That numb/tingling stuff sounds awful. Kinda like you have Restless leg syndrom, except in your arms. Jesse88 - Glad ya are doing better.
angytvjunkie4 - Wooohooo!!!
Hey Joonie!
How is the recovery from broncitis going? The bronchitis is pretty good, but my nose and ears are stopped up. Especially in the mornings, I sound like a bullfrog and cough up a lung, feels like
*sings* Mo'Nana was a bullfrog, she was good friend of mine. Awwwww Linky Doodle!! I sorry your shoulder is hurtin
Oh & BTW... if I had I would send it to ya to get a good nights sleep w/1 bathroom break. Now... I ask does that include not being woke up by tubby hubby snoring?
Thanks for the serenade Joonie
Link I hope you don't have bursitis, it hurts like the devil! Anytime!
Well... that is who amkes the most mess tubby hubby and son and sometimes daughter. Me... nope only room I mess up is my bedroom. The rest of the house is messed up from them 3! No, 2 days is if I am lucky.
I'm tired and I keep getting more and more bruises that won't heal. Also weird little sores that get nasty and bigger and bigger and wont heal. Right this minute I have 8 on my torso and they look like cigarette burns.. and they hurt also I keep breaking open a scab on my hand, because my hand is so weak I bang it into doors etc And TMI... guys Look away.. I've developed a HORRIBLE discharge.. just lots and lots, no smell and it sure isnt yeast. Its causing burns on all my pink parts.. AND my joints are doing poorly esp knees and toes.. AND the cherry on top?? My DIL.. the kids "mom" diecided to run away to Florida..leaving me to explain.. oh yes mama loves you shes just going away for ...a...while... wonder why they both call me mommy now. Just checked in for a few miinutes and I can see I am way behind on the boards already. I am on vacation. Thank goodness hubby has a bad cold and so we are both very happy to read, take naps, and relax. Don't remember when I have felt so relaxed and rested. Unfortunately, getting pain in new joints so I am taking all my meds and hoping for the best. Laker KweenB, My arms get like that. I find a heating pad helps. Maybe it is fibro? Laker Hey joonbug! As always, when I haven't seen you post for a few days I start to worry.
What's been going on, and how have you been feeling? Any news on the Remicade????
I've been doing good one day then bad two. Lacking in energy and modivation to do anything. Hoping this improves soon!
Going to see the pain lady friday, so looking forward to that!
Joonie, glad to hear you are feeling some better. I wonder if muscle relaxers would help the upper arm pain. I'll have to ask the Dr the next time I go in.I had my toughest night last night - both my arms and hands were solidly asleep (numb, pins and needles), so I didn't get much sleep. Today at work, they both feel incredibly weak. Typing is almost impossible.
I never understood a single word she said but I helped her drink
her whine.
She always had some mighty fine wine.
Sing it Joy to the world...all the boys and girls now
Joy to the fishies in the deep bluesea and joy to you and me.
