Life can be a Pain

Life can be a Pain

Hi @BlueBay@Zoe7@Former-Member@Faith-and-Hope@utopia@oceangirl@TAB@Shaz51@PeppiPatty

I know there are more people I could tag but maybe I will think them up as I go along - actually I already have

I think I need my own thread - mostly my problem is chronic pain syndrome - I damaged my spine with the sporting excesses of my youth - a long time ago now - and I managed to rearrange it when I fell of my pushbike in a wind storm nearly 22 years ago and that seems a long time ago now but there is nothing they can do except treat the pain - and I do have Section 8 medication and I see a pain specialist

And the pain has been worse lately and wears me down and I get fed up and very tired -

I have issues with my mother as well - and although she died 2 years ago I still have bad times now and again - she was abusive and as well as I know myself and her this can get to me at times - and this is another reason I opened my own thread

Then there is TS - my Toxic Sister - she was under my skin for a while but not at the moment

So yesterday I felt so bad when I went to see the doctor about my back pain - and my pain specialist has cut my medication back several times over the last few years and she has gone too far - and I started to tell my doctor - yes - I cope with the pain better since my mother died - but it's driving me crackers atm and so are the memories of my mother

So that's it for now - I have had trouble opening this thread for some reason but now I have - I will run my own story - I would like to think I don't need to but yes - I do

You are all such wonderful supportive people - you are my soft place to land - that is so true

And anyone I have missed I will tag as I go along

Lots of hugs everyone

Dec

Wow @Anastasia This thread is going to have most creative owl pics!

@Owlunar I am glad you are with your daughter. Cant say much, dont take lack of words as lack of regard

My son is circling too atm @Bunniekins My anxiety about him is way up, but cant let it show too much. He is playing lots beautiful piano music and going for regular runs.

@Emelia8 The Floods are terrible. Sending love.

@Owlunar Hey Dec yes Australia has certainly had its fair share of plagues last year and looks likely to continue into this year. I have decided I too will wait before I have a vaccination. I am just not comfortable yet with the speed the vaccinations are coming out particularly for my son2. Am very happy that your procedure went well and that you have some nice, new reading glasses. Take good care of yourself. Love peaxxx

Re: Life can be a Pain

Yes you're right @BlueBay ... its some time since I have seen @Owlunar around. I have tagged her a few times, to things like the Good Morning thread, but dont want to bug her if she is needing to take time out.

I think of you often @Owlunar and hope recovery from recent shoulder procedure is going to plan. I dont know what your Easter plans were, but would like to think you spent some time with your daughter. I look forward to hearing from you when you feel up to it.

Much love to you

Emelia 😊💓

Leaving something here for you for Easter ... enjoy
