I Have fibromyagia, chronic heart failure, and I am hearing impaired. I believe my fibromyalgia was cause by the abuse I suffered as a child. My other problems, such as post trumadic stress hasn't helped ... so here I am lonley and trying to find someone to talk too.
BOTH MY EAR DRUMS ARE SCARED FROM BEING RUPTURED. SLAPPED UP SIDE THE HEAD ONE TO MANY TIMES, ALSO FROM OVERDOES OF ASPRIN AS A YOUNG MAN I ATE TWO OR THREE BOTTLES OF BAYER ASPRIN A DAY FOR PAIN. I WORKED AS A CARPENTOR. HAD TO TAPE MY HAMMER IN MY HAND MOST MORNING BECAUSE I COULD NOT HOLD IT. HEARING AIDS DON'T HELP A LOT. MY EARS RING ALMOST ALL THE TIME.
May of 06 I was dianosised with chronic heart failure, pulse is fast but not moving the blood enough is my understanding. I'm on medicaid and SSI. I take TOPOL XL to slow my heart rate so it can pump stronger.between the dizzy spells and lack of energy. Well I don't know what to think, I'm trying one day at a time
Divorced seven years, ex if twentyfive years said I was fat ugly, and she was tired of putting up with my disability. utill now I haven't really addressed my feeling about the pain and hate that this has cause Me!
I am on SSI, need I say more. Oh yeah I recieve from the state a supplemental income that totals under 1000 dollars a month. I have a 16 yr old child at home, he has lots of needs then so do I. I'm really feeling the gas prices. I have several doctor appointments to make each month and this state don't give you any support when it comes to transportation. Oh yeah I get 15 dollars a mo in food stamps. I feel like a second hand citizen, Like I never paid any taxes right.
My frybromyagial and chronic pain keeps me from sleeping at night, and yepp sleep apnea is a problem, I use a nasal mask, I love the machine I have and I fall asleep any where at 20 pounds no ramping, just an hour later I wake up in excrusiating pain,bad bad, pain in hands and arms.
I guess i lack exsperience in the feild of sex. at 54 I have only had sexual relations with three women. I married the last one for 25 years. Sex is wonderful, beautiful, but not a toy, today people seem to have sex just because it feels good. I think we should use responsible sex. mind the baby oil lol
I've been in pain since the fifth grade. after high school I ate two or more bottles of asprin for my pain. 1990 i bacame unable to earn gainful employment. I started taking motrin, like a fool two or three 800mg at a time for the pain. doctor convinced me to not take more than three 800mg Motrin in a twenty four period. Pain all the time no relief...most of the pain was side effects of my meds. now I don't take any Pain meds unless it's just too much to bare. We are all different
I was raised my by grandparents; They adopted me when I was 16, told me they wanted me to be their son, my step-grandfather could not have children. I felt like I owed him for takeing care of me since I was seven. I changed my name to his. Really I became a II... Then in 1990 he signed a disiheritance papers because I would not divorce my wife back in 1980 like my grandmother had demanded me to do. This really hurts, my adopted father has passed away in 94, grandma in 96. still hurts..
As a child I was not takin to a doctor for pain, bad cuts, short version, I never went to doctors as a young man. I suffer pain back sholders and neck a lot in early twenties. My hands would swell up an hurt still could not bend my fingers. I tape my hammer in my hand and ate lots of asprin. For years I use Ibuprofen 800mg three times aday. Recent vist to a Rummy said nothing showed up in blood work and I had No Arthritis.I wake up with stiff hurting hand,fingers that wont work.What is this?
I'm Russ. 54, divorced, have fibromyalgia, hearing impaired, live on SSI, have one child at home. CP, DDD, PTSD, oh did i say fat and Ugly lol... well there you have it.
Abusive childhood, beaten daily, verbal abuse, anger problems... constant Pain 24/7
my mom and grandmother were abusive, my wife was...can't even describe this woman, then she divorces me because i bacame disable...
gee i thought I was already a memger lol...cause I suffer depression... how many ways can you spellit...down-n-out, blue...I get so low my soul crys sometimes... anti-depresants don't help...make me angry
I'm a single dad, raising son alone with disabilitied and limited income and resourses
What's to tell, been divorced eight years, alone raising my son... just lonely
I live on ssi, and raised a son...
