such a waste of time | Arthritis Information

spent the day calling my doctor's office asking if I can take more percocet.  Went back and forth all day.  What a hassle.  And the answer is........................go to the hospital.  OK with my two aquariums, 3 cats, 3 dogs and rat.  And of course, my sweetheart schizophrenic daughter.  I feel like I cannot survive without every one of them.  God, I miss Brett.  My family is too busy preparing for the big Thanksgiving get together.  If this pain does not let up, I am going to send Kelsey up on the bus.

But for what it was worth, It was the best thing I coudl have done because it saved my life, I could have bled to death. I agree, take your daughter with you to the hospital or see if a friend or neighbor can watch her. It really does seem like you need to get to the hospital.

Ewww...you have a RAT?????????

You are braver than I!

Okay...feed the fish and the rat to the cats, and then feed the cats to the dogs...turn the dogs loose...take your daughter...and go to the hospital if you cant handle the pain. Or put the fish and rat in tupperwear containers, cage the cats and dogs and load up in the car with Kelsey and come to TX and then Deanna will come too and Katie (and Justin of course) and we will just have a big party and you will feel better.

Wish that could be....wish it could work...

Wish there was something I could do for you.

I hope you get some rest and wake up feeling better.

I really think the stress has just finally caught up with you in a major way.

Awww, I'm sorry you're having a rough day Roxy. *hugs*

I hope you are currently in a hospital hooked up to some nice pain relief getting some rest. :)
I've been watching Star Trek. Why the hell don't we have that technology yet? We could BEAM Roxy to us. That'd be so cool...



KKKAAAAAAHHHHHHNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We would just have one of those little scanner things and zap us all better and then beam us to a big party in Vegas.Roxy.... where are you?  Are you allright?

I love your Star Treck idea !!!!!  I won't leave my house.  It is just pain.  PAIN.  I will cope or if I don't - I will take a taxi to a clinic for a shot.  I am trying to get an early appt. to doctor.  I think a cortizone shot would help.  I don't know if all this pain is fibro or RA.  I hope fibro as it would not be doing damage - right?????  I woke up this morning and the bones in my right foot on top feel broken.  Last night I panicked and was calling the doctor.  The drama of an ambulance is so hard for me.  I am coping.  Kelsey is taking care of me.

I will never say a bad word about Brett again.  He did take care of me.  I did not realize how much he did until now.  I pray every day he stays sober and I can get better so he can have fun with me again.

I know this is a really really bad flare.  I am upping my pred. AGAIN.  What else can they do but put me on more pred. and morphine.

I HATE THIS DISEASE.  I dreamt last night about before I got RA, hiking.  Omg. Roxy I know what you mean about the bones in the top of your foot! I get that too, and it's SO RANDOM. And it hurts, and every time I start thinking "what did I do? Did I hit my foot on something?" Sometimes putting socks on even hurts. I also have this strange lump on my right foot, it's been there as long as I can remember. It's right on top of the bone, and it HURTS when I flare. Weird, huh? Roxy, I remember you right from the beginning.  I recall that you posted pics of your wedding to Brett, pics of Brett's house and the surronding area and pics of your dogs wading in the stream and you were so happy then.  And then I recall that you had difficulty drivng up the mountain to see Brett and what a hassle it was to set up your computer from the mountain.  Also, how you dreamed of someday getting Kelsey released from the hospital and sharing your home with her and Brett's son.  But you were having pain then too Roxy and you still had dreams of still being a ranger and I know that you still do.  But Roxy, you never know so don't give up yet. Just hang in there and find a way to release some of the stress in your life because stress causes pain, physically and mentally.
So the next question Roxy is, when are you going to write your book?  That would certainly take your mind off of things for a while and it would be very theurapeutic as well.  And, I want an autographed copy Roxy!!
Roxy, I know that you know all of this stuff, but we all need a reminder now and then.  And that is why I chose now and then for my name because I also need reminders. 

Sending a nice gentle,warm friendly hug.  Now doesn't that make you feel a bit better?   now & then39039.5200462963Yes it does and I am feeling better.  The pain is not as bad as when I got up.  I am hopeful just inpatient - as usual.  I have had such a fun life.  I have been so blessed.  I shouldn't complain but I miss those days that I was like a little kid in a playground but instead I would be on a hike
