Nice to see a "Home Girl" (I’m was raised in Bridgeport/Fairfield CT) aboard ASL… Congrats on your success filing for disability.   Mom had severe RA and my twin sister has SLE (while in Connecticut) and also had a b*tch of a time filing for disability.   Me, a resident of Maine, and being on active duty in the military had a much easier time. — Kendall F.

Response:

Hi to you too, Jane. I am glad that you decided to post instead of just reading. Sorry to hear that you are having so many problems. It is even tougher when you have to look after the needs of children. A long hot bath is the only thing that gives me temporary relief when I have muscle pain. It feels good while I am in the tub anyway. Talk to us any time. There is usually someone about. BJ-Sk. Canada "Jane" <J…@webtv.net> wrote in message

Hi everyone, Jane here.  I’ve been miserable, musclepains, twitches, charley horses, and sometimes, I feel like a marionette.  I’ve been taking flexeril, I don’t think it works anymore.   Fatigue!!  Can’t concentrate, I’m having difficulty writing cursive. My mind is not communicating with the rest of me.  My right eye is blind in the upper right quardrant,  and I’m ready to quit driving, too many near missis.   I’m hanging in there, finally got CT to approve my disability after 4 years of papers, their Dr.s, and many trips to New Haven.     Sorry about not writing, I do read the postings in the wee hours like tonight, can’t sleep.  I took an ativan for sleep anxiety, then my headache reaturned from this afternoon so I took  vicodin for that.  I think I’m afraid to sleep, I need to get my 11 year old off to school, then I’ll nap .

Response:

Hi Paulette, Sorry to hear about your poor "peeper." Pets give so much love, but they do cause lots of worry. I have been caring for one geriatric dog. Now my youngest one has also fallen ill. It looks like she may have cancer. The stress of all this has kept me from the ng at times. Funny how animal concerns can take up all of your time and energy. I hope things improve with your parrotlet and your ankle. Good to hear that somebody is getting some warmer weather. Winter will last for quite a while here. We have snow again today. BJ-Sk.

Response:

It is hard to believe it is not actually spring (what did Mr. Groundhog say?).  Today was just different.  The Titmice who have a nest outside in the tree were singing a different, warbly kind of tune today.  Maybe like chickens who sound off after they have laid an egg?  I’m doing good right now, just need some PT on my back and some help with migraines.  But as far as lupus goes I’m doin pretty good.

‘Here’ *but have a literal spring fever on board with me… I woke up in the night with bone shaking and teeth chattering chills and have had a fever of 101 all last night and all day today… whatever it is is in my chest as of tonight (it hurts and a wheezy cough along with a fever produced headache) so will get checked for another round of pneumonia tomorrow first thing (or tonight if I get any worse MOTH will take me to ER)… I spent the entire day in bed and I am going back now.

Response:

I’m still here. Just slammed at work and worried about my parrotlet "peeper". He decided to start pulling his feathers out. Not sleeping well with worrying about him. This is the second time he has done it. He is a miniature parrot only 4 1/2 " long. Not a parakeet. I have had him 5 years. He’s a sweetie. Wish I did not have to work so I could spend more time with him. Still having ankle problems. If I take alieve the night before it is better. But I don’t like to take medicine all of the time. I’m already taking levoxyl in the morning. But I know you all are very familiar with taking medicine. :) The weather is warming and I see Spring in the air but I also see the mess my yard is in. Take the good with the bad. Love you all, Paulette Ethyl Mermaid
