Things were going pretty well until Tuesday this week. That when my pain jumped up to a level ten. But it wasn't fibro pain. It was some of the most severe chest and stomach pain I've ever had. I tried to ignore it. I tried to find a position where I got some relief. Nothing worked so I ended up calling Mr. Supportive to take me to the ER.
That visit was a nightmare. You know how those of us with chronic pain get labeled as drug seekers? I feel sure that I was labeled as soon as I got there. You know how sometimes when the pain is so bad that you can't breathe normally and you breathe through your mouth very quickly? The nurse told me I was having an anxiety attack and if I would stop breathing so fast the dizziness would go away.

I'm going to be away from the computer for a few days playing grandma. Here's hoping I report back good things pain wise!
It is really good to do as blog, to share your experiences, so others don't feel so alone and to raise awareness. Many thanks :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. I hope to "see" you again. Cynthia
DeleteAs a sign of gratitude for how my son was saved from fibromyalgia , i decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
ReplyDeleteMy son suffered fibromyalgia in the year 2013 and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, he always complain of joint stiffness, and he always have difficulty falling asleep . we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him. I searched for a cure and i saw a testimony by someone who was cured and so many other with similar body problem, and they left the contact of this doctor who had the cure to fibromyalgia . I never imagined fibromyalgia has a natural cure not until i contacted him and he assured me my son will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my son used it and in one months time he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life. fibromyalgia has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drwilliams098675@gmail.com on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony.
