I don't know Marg. I guess we can keep posting and see what happens.

I hope you are doing better today. I've had a couple bad days. Today, I'm tired, grumpy and emotional. I'm even a little dizzy. I'm hoping it's from the sinus thing I got from my daughter and not the ms. I will know eventually.

Yes,like I said alot of people just view for info or to see posts they can relate to..I just got off the phone with my sister and she's really bad off.She said she wasn't even up to making a sandwich.She sounded terrible.

She's getting a referral to a pain doctor next week.I know I told you she was the director of a local hospice,so she's familiar with a doctor's group that works with hospice and the chronically ill.She won't get her medicare until April.

I told her I'd go up if I was ok.Something hit me about noon,I thought I was going to get sick,I took a dramamine thinking it was because of head pain.

But I started getting flu like symptoms.Now along with aches,my throat is sore and my ear is starting to ache.I did some work yesterday and am concerned it could be a tick bite.They just had a 17yr old die with that.They gave him antibiotics and sent him home,he was dead when the parents got up.

I don't understand not keeping him to be monitored.

I don't want to be paranoid,but I do need to be safe.Hey,if nothing else,maybe they'll give me something for the aches.

I do get concerned because about 17 yrs ago,I started with flu like symptoms and ended up in so much pain all over,I could hardly walk.They never determined what it was,it lasted about 3 months.At that time my sister said she thought it was chronic fatigue.Of course,back then,they just laughed at me.

Sorry to go on.And I'm sorry for what you're going thru.I really hope you feel better.

Definitely get checked and make sure that it's not from a tick. They carry all sorts of diseases besides lyme. It could be anything. I think once we get a major illness it taxes our whole system and makes us susceptable to almost anything.

I do hope that your sister will be okay too. You said she has lots of friends. So I hope she can count on one of them to bring her someting to eat.

I don't feel up to cooking, so we are going out. Hubby won't eat if I don't cook and he won't make us dinner. I'm not really up to going out, but that's the only way I get out of cooking.
