Easter Egg High

Note: Start reading at "The Why"

What Happened:
In the emergency room they ask you to rate 1-10. 10 being the worse and 1 being the least. Well today is a 10.5. I can't sit, I can't stand, I can't walk, I just can't do it today. I don't want to do it today. I don't want to walk or work or sit or be around people or be in pain. I am tired of being in pain. Today is not the day to try anything stupid. It will take everything I have to hold in all of this and just be nice.....UGH!!! I'm so glad it's a Saturday and after I teach these classes I can go to bed.

Well that was the plan. After teaching two classes I picked up my nephew and his friend and took them to an Easter Egg Hunt. Lots of fun for them but not so much for me. I managed to be around several people and put on a happy face. The kids had an amazing time and I survived. I am ok with that.

After dropping the boys off I went home and relaxed. I took a bath in my muscle and joint soak and went to bed. I had a hot date lined up.....cancel. LOL! I probably wouldn't be much fun today anyway. I know I know. I'm going through this and thinking about dating... YES!!! I am still single. But I did cancel lol. Then 30 min later I got a text from a friend. A friend who likes playing with "trees". Although I have never partaken in these activities they say it helps with pain. After all they give it to people with cancer....right? Right!

OMG I can so see why they give it to people who are in extreme pain. The only thing that hurt me for 4 hours was my leg, in one little spot in the front. Oh the relief. For the first time in sooo long I was not in pain over my whole body. There was no fire on my feet. No pain in my hips. I could sit, I could stand, I could walk normal. I could be me. I was almost me. The person I was before Feb.10 the  person I strive to be everyday. For people with cancer...and doctors who recognize that this is a great way to treat pain Go YOU. For governments who are stuck in the 1950s who want everyone to be in pain so they can keep control.....SCREW YOU! Both of these statements are from the bottom of my heart.

How I felt:
Angry at the beginning. And relieved at the end. Ahhhhhh

Note: Please start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Well the Neurontin is not helping and I have not heard back from the nurse with the results from the last visit on Feb. 28th. So I went to see him. His receptionist said that they are down a nurse and that she would be calling me with the results and making the call to set up the appointment with the nerve conduction specialist. Me: What??? She hasn't called yet? Are you serious? She was picking up the phone when I left your office last visit. You mean to tell me since then she hasn't had time to make one phone call? Her: Ma'am calm down please. There is only one of her. Me: There is only one of me. But you didn't mind charging me my copay regardless of whether I could pay it, you don't care that I came to you in pain and am still in pain possibly because she didn't do her job. No, I will not calm down.  (Within one hour she called me with my appt and blood results. Blood results showed nothing)...

OMG! OMG! OMG! 5-1

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: Today was an ok day. I worked all day chasing after clients. I taught one fitness class that uses equipment that I have to grip and hit. The pain usually comes when I hit the equipment together so I have learned to hold my left pointer finger up instead of allowing it to grip with the others. The pain is a radiating vibrating pain that goes down my finger. It is excruciating, but I have learned to adapt. In this class we also sit on the ground which is becoming harder and harder. I now have severe pain in my hips and back when sitting down. But I made it through the day! The class! and now its time for another class that requires more equipment, heavy equipment like big tractor tires and  such. Well I loaded all 4 tires, plus heavy weighted bars and various other equipment. Got to the location feeling ok so I moved the 30 plus chairs and 8 tables that needed to be moved. Luckily my friend, my right hand woman in class showed up and h...

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Today I ask 6 friends to pray and fast with me for a healing. The bible says when two or more are together that God is there. I need God to be here. I need Him to heal my body. I am at a loss and my body is shutting down quickly. Every step is like fire, hot sand and blisters but my bones get so cold. I hate walking. But I will not quit. I have thought about a wheelchair or crutches just to have relief. Some relief would be so nice right now. But I can walk so I will. My work load has increased drastically and it is so painful.  I think about calling in every morning. But bills wont get paid that way. I can do it. I just have to will myself. My support group will help. I am so thankful that I have friends that will be there an pray with and for me. How I felt: hopeful.
