Friday, April 11, 2008 | A General Update story

I am 59 yrs old and have several health problems, COPD< CIDP< Neuropathy, high blood pressure, neuro and plumory sarcoidosis, facial tremors, panick attacks with agroaphobia. and now the latest Cervial Dystonia which I am sure I got from my mother , even thou she was never dx with it.

I am also on a lot of meds, Advair, Singular, Aprivia, Albuterole, predison as needed, guaifenesin, Furosemide, Kor-con, Folic Acid, Methotreaxte,Atenol,Almlodipine besylate, Primdone, Cymbalta, Paxil, Lyrice, Cyclobenzaprine, Xana, and now Myobloc.I feel like a walking drug store.

The pain in my neck is almost unbearable. I can not have Mobloc injections till the 1st of July. . I am trying to deal with the pain the best I can. I do some of my house work , but have learned picking heavy things up, makes my neck worst, has anyone else noticed this. I am usually a happy person, but do have my bad days like anyone else. I know I will be  here till God calls me home and I want to help anyone I can till then. When I was little my grandmother had a rocking chair,  when I got hurt, I would climb up in her lap, she would wrap her arms around me till all the hurt was gone. Well now I have me a rocking chair and any one that needs rocking, just let meknow. hugs Martha let's Just Rock Awhile

    Wednesday April 16th. My neck and shoulders r killing me . I can not have myobloc till July 1st. I am thinking of saling my house because I can not take care of my flower beds and yard and now the house needs painting.The main reason I haven't already is because I am not sure what it would do to my Medicare. One son had braIn cancer in 1990 and not able to help me, other son has 2 girls to raise and he loves to fish and hunt when he is off.I hate asking people to help me.I took care of 2 husbands that died, one from cancer for 3 months other from a stroke for 5 years, now what do I do. The pain is so bad, and the pulling of my head makes me off balacan, I walk like a drunk must of the time. I have to really watch it or I will fall. I am ready this morning to give up. Hugs Martha
