My Companion, My Pain

I received a comment earlier about how my pain made the pain of others seem trivial and how much courage I have. I thank you, but its not true. No one has the corner of the market on pain. Pain is pain. Your pain hurts just as bad as mine. As for courage I wish it was true. I am not brave at all I... Sign in to see full entry.

I wrote a post a while ago and then noticed that it wasn't here. I don't know where it went. I had a good weekend energy wise so I tried to take a walk with my dog today. When I got home my right leg hurt so bad that I had to take pain meds and lay down. This answers the question about wether or not... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey ya'll hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I had a pretty good day. I had a lot of energy and felt pretty good pain wise all day. I got my shawl and hat done for the lady with cancer that I talked about in Willows World. Every time you start to think you have problems just look around and you... Sign in to see full entry.

I had a good day. Physically. I didn't need any pain meds. I wonder if I can get through the night without any? Well we'll see. My skin is clearing up and most of the swelling is gone. I dressed up some for my grandsons birthday party, and my rings all wanted to fall off my fingers. They have fit me... Sign in to see full entry.

I am getting better. My back and right leg still hurt alot but every thing else is feeling better and that makes the pain that is left easier to deal with. The swelling is going down and my energy level is up. I am feeling much better. I met a lady in the infusion clinic that had the same treatment... Sign in to see full entry.

I have been jittery and very restless and hyper for the last few days it is starting to get better, but I called the doctor anyway because I had the same symptoms when I had my last infusion.
