It was such a busy day, I did not eat as well as I should've. Today I did better. Classes are from 12-5. 10 minute breaks in between each class. There are vending machines, but its all junk food. I had a sausage patty and two boiled eggs for breakfast. (I cut them up into small pieces, mix them together with a dash of hot sauce) Small salad for lunch before school. I was getting really hungry towards the end of the day though. Drank lots of water. Being active and busy, its helping me sleep better. (Bleeding also has stopped). My doctor is trying to get the referral out to have another scope done. Drawing class is my fave, along with Typography. Studied the history of writing, the alphabet today. Was really interesting. Soon as I picked up a drawing pencil, the teacher showing us how to hold it. I knew I made the right decision. Felt like I am home again. Its what I am meant to do. Are you back to teaching now too? Hows it going for you? The teachers I have, they are great! Nimue: I have a Business Comm. Class. The book, workbook for the class, its a English workbook. Remember I told you once about the horrible teacher I had when a kid? The nouns, pronouns, proper nouns, verbs, adverbs. Its driving me a little bonkers already. I may need some help, if you are up to it? Not yet, but if needed, can I ask you for help? I wish I could say I like English as a course. I just don't. Or perhaps its just the belittling teacher I had when a kid. I was falling asleep in class just about. It may get better as the week goes on. |

From: "PlacidBull" "All last week I have not been well. Tired, fatigued, weakness, pain with Fibro worse, the joint pain." Sunshyne ... are you saying Fibro as in fibromyalgia? Yes, fibromayglia. I also have degenerative disk disease, cervical and lumbar hernitated disks. Then, I have to second the advice about the water. I find that on days that I forget to drink much water, my pain flares horribly, so I want to crawl into a hole and die. It took me a really long time to figure this one out, since it was always also associated with me trying harder to be strictly low carb and I would always blame the diet rather than the lack of fluids. But recently I've been responding to that pain by drinking huge glasses of water whenever I can and I'm much better within a few hours. Rebecca |

know that's how it's perceived by many people in the medical profession. Besides, it doesn't explain anything. It's just a garbage term for pain that the doctors can't figure out how to deal with. I've also stopped trying to get the doctors to do anything about my pain. It's beyond their abilities. Even with the Dx of fibromyalgia and a sympathetic doctor, I was miserable on the drugs they recommended. So, I've dropped the Dx and I go it alone. BRBR I have two items about that: For the past few years, my mother has been thinking that she has fibromyalgia, suffering with the pain, sleeplessness, depression and fatigue, etc. She recently went to a neurologist who found that she may have a disc problem in her lower back, which may account for the pains that she gets in her legs. She is waiting to hear about the MRI she had yesterday, but is hopeful that there may be a tangible diagnosis. Secondly, I know of a woman with fibromyalgia who has been institutionalized after it was found that she had become dependent on many different painkillers. She had amassed 26 different prescriptions from all the different doctors she had been to. She was not getting out of bed and was terribly depressed. That is all I know of that situation, but it is a cautionary tale about drugs and the lack of answers about this condition. |

Brain function is physical.
