    About Me

    I'm a homeschooling mom of two great boys ages 8 and 12. My husband and I just celebrated our 15th anniversary (whew!).I'm currently looking for work, it's really hard to make ends meet on one salary, but I love homeschooling my boys most of the time!

      I'm sorry you had a rough night. I have quite a few today on my legs and arms - yesterday I had a lot of breathing trouble but today so far is better that way. Hang in there - if I find anything out I'll pass it on. Stay in touch! Kari

      Welcome to the world of sleep apnea...the mask takes some getting used to but soon you won't even know it's there. I took mine off during the night without realizing it at first but now I'm used to it. I've tried different masks over the years and find that I don't like the "full-face" masks, I'm a "side-sleeper" so the nasal ones work best for me. Good luck!!

    • Close Sleep Apnea

      I've been feeling worn our and depressed for years, finally I talked with my dr about it. We tried depression meds, adjusted my thyroid meds and still I was just worn out. Dr suggested a sleep study where I learned I have obstructive sleep apnea. Ok, now it makes sense. I just got my CPAP 4 days ago so I'm still getting used to it. I do feel better but I have a hard time getting comfortable with the mask.

      Treatments

      CPAP Too Soon to Tell
      Having trouble getting used to the mask, but I do feel some better.

    • Close Hives

      I've been having hives for 17 years off and on. I've gone as long as a year without a case of hives. Have no idea what causes them.

      Treatments

      Benadryl Somewhat Helpful
      Benadryl helps with the itching but makes me so sleepy.
      Zyrtec Working / Worked

    • Open Hypothyroidism

      I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism when I was 10 years old. Been on Synthroid ever since. It got out of whack in the last few years but finally I think I'm on the right dose and I guess I'm ok.
