stupid

New to the forum. Thanks for all the amazing information. I want to cry knowing I'm not alone (okay I am actually tearing up - stupid emotions). So, I've been 'dealing' with all of my 'issues' for most of my life. I've actually had issues since I was a small child. My mother did what she...

Since all the stupid weather and Christmas stress started the weekend before Christmas I have not been in a good way at all. I know i occasionally have flare-ups but this was the mother of them all and it still is with me. I'm normally a very mild mannered person, yes things piss me off but i...

Need to vent.... Tomorrow is my first day back at work since early November (I am a seasonal employee).... My regular schedule is 6 hous a day, m-f, but the first two days back are full 8 and a half hours.... This is the stinky part: I'm in western new York.... And we have several weather...

All of my pain from my mysterious health issues cause me a lot of pain. I just can not sit in a car for very long. If I am driving I get spacey and do stupid things like run red lights and stop signs. I was wondering if Fibromyalgia affected you guys in a similar way. Does it interfere with your...

Well here it goes.. I went to get into my car yesterday to drive to the city to see the grandkids and kids for a bowling birthday party. I looked at the gas tank and thought Wow I need to get gas. I stopped at the next little town and filled up but it hardly took any gas! When I got back in my...

Well for the first time since living here in Canadia (yeh that's what I like to call it- its not a typo) I got referred to a rheumetologist (that is bad spelling and my spell check is thick too). My appointment was yesterday. Nice lady but she put me through the wringer. I know she had to do a...

Sorry about that title, lol! It's just I feel so frustrated... Yesterday I went to buy new shoes for winter, a pair of really flirty and nice shoes, I thought I had found the right ones... I tried them on and everything was well. But after a while of walking in them I started to feel some...

I wasn't, not at all, but now I'm afraid I've gotten entirely too normal. In my case, I got older, had those darn babies that make you want to be normal while you encourage their creativity. Then the grand babies roll in and you try to have fun; nothing but fun with grand kids! Then maybe you...

My niece is getting married tomorrow and all the family and friends will be there. I've been looking forward to it for so long. Today im not doing so well though. I have had a mental headache for over a week, been feeling like i've had a cold for about two weeks and thought maybe its allergies,I...

One of the few pleasures I have left is watching great comedy. Not the sitcoms that broadcast television networks hype with every new season, but comedy featuring irony, satire, and/or British humor. I like smart comedy, produced with writers understanding that their audience isn't stupid...
