I am pityful

[SheriG]

I have been in a flare for weeks. Actually ever since Auntie Deb left us, the shock that my body coped with, and the undying sadness that I still feel...My tummy feels twisted, my bladder hurts all the way to my groins and around to both buttocks (something new}I am exhausted, feel like crap, and am a whiny pityful thing. Sorry, had to get it off my chest. Hope you are all well grouphug Sheri

Sheri,
It must be in the air today, you can feel sorry for yourself!!! Sometimes it just helps me to get all whiny and pitiful!!! But then of course we have to kick ourselves in the rear and get back up, but everyone deserves a pity party once in a while!
Love,
Kim

Hi Sheri, I feel for you, I know we all get those days, so go ahead and have a good vent, I think we have all earned the right to do that, when we feel like it. Living with IC is a pain in the butt, and we deserve a good pity party every now and then, like Jess said, mint ice cream yeh! I also know how much you must miss Deb, I know I do, a lot. Take care and anything I can do, happy to help you out anytime, love and hugs Iris. hi kissing grouphug

Thanks for all of your kind words. I am getting worse. The IC flare is awful, taking over my lower belly and back. My knees are also killing me... The new doc I went to, says that I have end stage osteo arthritis in both knees. Between my IC, and my darn knees, I am in agony. Sorry to continue to whine... grouphug

Sherie,

I hope this flair will go away soon so you can have some rest both mentally and physically. You seem like such a dear person, you are all over the boards sharing and caring, let us do some praying for you huh?
I am sorry your Arthritis is acting up, perhaps with the Spring weather we can alleviate all those nasty things that come with the high humidity & rain. Those two aspects really get my Arthritis in a go get em' gitty up flair!
then there is the saying "April showers bring may flowers" how's about that~ "do we really need flowers"
"April rain, tornado watches, my Lord I'm aching, could ya' get my goloshes,
I'll run from home to postage box and back,
Now there's that feeling in my knees and back! I go get wet and soaked with rain, all for bills, I'm endowed this pain!

Hope you feel better soon, time heals all wounds!
Much love and concern,
JessicainArkansas

Hi Sheri, sorry to read about you feeling worse. I can only hope that things start to ease off, and give you a chance to to enjoy Spring just around the corner. Hopefully a few prayers sent your way will help. Just wish there was something else I could do, to help you through this very rough patch you are experiencing. Keep us posted as to how you are doing, many soft hugs and prayers for you, love Iris. hi kissing grouphug angel
