Been awhile since I have posted here. Life really makes it's mark on you, doesn't it? I have had 2 emg's over the last 20 yrs....both stopped because of excruciating pain, equal to what I would...
Hi, I have noticed on this forum that many of us have numerous chemical sensitivities. I have developed over the years a rather extensive list. The latest category that the doctors have added are the...
Hi, Well, today was the day for my visit with the pulmonary doctor. As you recall, I had gotten my CT report that said I had sarcoidosis, and no one was forthcoming with any answers about the LR...
Hi.... Yesterday, I called the pulmonary doctor's office and told them that a fax of the CAT scan was on the way to them. I explained that although my appointment was scheduled for July....I was very...
For those of you who read my last post....you will understand this one. I am passed pissed. It was tough enough to hear last week that I had sarcoidosis...but it only gets better. I was getting the...
Hi, I absolutely HATE the old cliche: "God doesn't give you more than you can handle!" I have had fibro for 30+ yrs. It has over the years reduced me to a person that even I, (in my most positive...
Hi, When I was on Cymbalta, it was an absolute disaster. I, due to medical insurance problems, came off it cold turkey(NEVER do that). My doctor said it was like a heroin withdrawal. It was awful. I...
Thanks for putting a smile on my face today. I needed that! ): Violet...

Hi, One of the really hardest for me to get through is: You are on disability???? Gee, you don't look disabled to me! I usually smile.....and say that I would trade places for about 5 minutes with...
Hi Palmy, I have the exact same hip challenges, also. I have since been diagnosed with both frozen left shoulder and hip. The muscles freeze up and hold the joints in place which cause the irritation...
Hi, I have always had issues with any of the antidepressants that they have put me on. None of them ever worked, and the last was Cymbalta. This was the worst of them. I always felt like a truck had...
OMG, puppylove.....That happens to me ALL the time, and I also can not wear watches any more, because the hands move around. I have had fibro since the 80's. It was diagnosed interesting enough while...
I have been asking my doctors for quite sometime now about something that has been happening with my body. Please do not laugh! I am not making this up. My body at times will vibrate or hum for lack...
I, too, am so grateful to have found this forum. Over the years, it seems that I have become sensitive to meds that never bothered me before. I have had some surgery, and a great deal of pain meds...
Hi, I have had two emg's done many years ago, and they both had to be stopped. For me, I experienced pain that I could only imagine was equal to an electric chair. They were trying to access damage...
