      Awwww, I'm so sorry you're feeling so bad, and having to take care of Children too, wow. You made me laugh bringing up those two episodes, love those. It reminded me of when they were in Hollywood and she had to wear that WOOL suit in the fashion show while she had a sunburn, OUCHHHH! LOL. And trying to wear the huge Showgirl head dress, falling down the stairs.

    • Open Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

      Got Carpal tunnel from a really weird case of the flu. Had the surgery back in 2001 on both hands. Now I have it back again. I wonder if it is related to Lupus.

      Treatments

      When I go with my kids' busy schedule it is hard to fit in.
