Entire body aching and fatigued

Good morning everyone. I hope today is a relatively pain-free day for you. Apparently for me it's just gonna suck. Lol

I have to go to a pre-op appt this morning because when I went last Wed for my pre-op, they forgot to take a certain bloodwork panel and an EKG that's required because I'm diabetic. If all goes well and they can get my results in time, my surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 11:45am. (Endometrial Ablation via Novasure)

I woke up this morning feeling like I was hit by a truck. My head hurts, nose is bone dry, mouth is bone dry, entire body aches especially my upper arms. They literally feel like I lifted weights all weekend! My ever present back pain and hip pain are even taking a back seat to the darn arm pains! I'm sooo fatigued I just want to lay down and not move a muscle.

I'm currently waiting 15 more mins for my Prilosec to work so I can take my diabetes meds and my pain meds...longest 15 mins of my life this morning!!! *sigh*

I don't understand the aches and pains. I know I have to be patient and wait for my rheumy appt but I'm getting so frustrated. Ever since the Thurs before last when I saw my PCP and ended up in the ER later that night, I have not had a single day where I felt "good".

Sorry for the random rambling rant but I was going to go crazy staring at the pain pill bottle while waiting the half hour for the Prilosec. Thanks for "listening".

Thanks for the reminder Sherrine, to work on expecting the best. So true & I needed that today!

Thank you for that info. I wasn't aware of probs with Prilosec! My PCP put me on it a month ago when I went to him for a very sore throat and he thought it was a sinus infection. He gave me an antibiotic and it didn't help a bit. I went back to him after a week on it and my throat was feeling worse. I could feel the air going in and out of my throat it was so sore. He said maybe it's not a sinus infection but probs with your GERD insetead? He gave me the Prilosec rx. I went back three days later because the I couldn't turn my head to the right. He said he didn't feel swollen glands but to me, they felt swollen inside. He said they would drain, to be patient. They did, about two days later. Very painful. The Prilosec has been tremendous for my GERD though. I can bend over without acid vomit and I'm a little less nauseated every morning. I'll have to ask him about finding me something else.

I apologize for my less than upbeat attitude this morning. Mornings are, for me as well, the worst part of my day. The waiting and not knowing and the nerves about my surgery, etc are taking their toll.

Hope everyone has a great day!
