Here I sit rocking and crying, rocking and crying. Tears a pouring down my face as I rock and cry, rock and cry. Bad, bad, bad, bad. I don't wanna do this anymore...I don't know if I can do this anymore. It hurts, it hurts, it hurts... Oh my dear Lord, I'm a offering it to you right now. Please, please take it away.

Big storm coming in, its gonna rain for hours and hours. The earth needs the rain, my body doesn't. But...I'll just have to take some extra oxycontin, which means each time I take more than daily prescribed means running out before getting a new prescription. I told my pain doc I needed more in the winter time but he said no. He said if he gave me more just for a few months my body would accomodate for it and I wouldn't be able to cut back in the good weather. I don't sucking care what he thinks! There are times I need more pain relief!

I am so hating winter right now. The fluctuating weather is killing me. It was near impossible last night to sleep all the joints were killing me. I'm ready for the warm weather to get here.

I'm so sorry that you are having a bad time with the pain. It's too bad your dr doesn't understand the level of pain you are in! I swear, if they had to walk a mile in our shoes, they would be screaming for relief!

I am proud of you for letting us know of your pain.Getting it out is healty instead of holding it in. If I were there right now, I would let you put your head on my good shoulder and we could cry together. (I've been told I'm a good cryer) LOL I would also bake you something chocolate cuz it helps with the pain. Ok, so it's not as good as drugs, but it certainly helps me to feel better!

As I digress, where is that fibro island when we need it anyway? I could really use some sunshine & my sugar daddy. I'm sure he wouldn't mind giving everyone else massages too!

Anyway, I hope that you feel the power of all of us praying for you and hoping you feel better soon! Before you know it we will be asking if it's time to turn on the A/C to keep out the humidity. LOL

Stephany,

I'm so sorry you are having horrible pain. As I read your post, I felt like you were my voice too. Sometimes it is impossible to even function and you feel backed in a corner with nowhere to go. It sucks! Sometimes I wonder what our doctors are thinking. They are not in our bodies to experience what we feel. I wish we could all enjoy life, be pain free, and not feel lost when it comes to the medical community. If you need me, I am here.

Terri

Thanks, guys. I already feel better. A good vent, a good cry. Helps to get it all out. Love ya all. My dogs knew something was terribly wrong and were all over me trying to offer comfort. You could drown with four huge hairy beasts trying to get in your lap! LOL

I'm glad you have your dogs there to help comfort you. There's nothing quite like the compassion of a furry friend. Pet their bellies for me and feel better. We are here for you anytime you need us! With love,
