why is it that when you drop one ball, all of the others go crashing down on top of it, and they all shatter into a million pieces? i'm a mess right now. more physically than mentally, but people are actually noticing. a teacher asked if i was ok or if i was sick, my father said i sounded stressed, people asked where i was yesterday, i skipped two out of three afternoon classes on monday, didnt go to any classes wendsday, skipped my first period today, i didnt have the energy or the strength to really play with the kids i babysat tonight, and i absolutely adore these kids- i took off work tonight to babysit them. i shake too much to focus in class when i actually go. i'm rather paranoid of failing two or three of my classes. i'm just a mess. ive been in pain since last night, and its all in my torso. i got about three hours of sleep last night because of it. i did a horrible job of taking my meds today. i just feel like its all so overwhelming. i think im going to call my pdoc tomorrow to see if i can get an appointment to discuss altering my meds, three different ones gets confusing. im sorry i whine and complain so much.

School is tough around this time of year. I loved school a lot but you couldn't pay me to go back except maybe on a grade free, pressure free basis. I loved to learn but hated the pressure.
Three meds can be overwhelming. Are they working for you? If they are, it might be worth the annoyance. I used to use one of those weekly pill boxes that made me feel every bit my age, but it worked. Have you given meditation a good try? I'm afraid I have no sage advice on coping skills - mine were all extremely maladaptive. But I'm here to listen to you rant if that is of any help.

I hear ya girl. Maybe not on the school front, I've already graduated 6 years of college, but can relate to pain.
Since your newer on the board, then some... i'll give you a run down... and if you ever want to talk, I'm a good listener.
I had surgery on my breasts. The surgeon left a cloth inside of me. I was in pain for years, doctors telling me it was fine, in my head basically. Finally a good doctor found this cloth which had eventually embedded itself into my sternum and chest muscles. It's out now, after many surgeries...... and I'm left with a major deformaty and chronic pain that is so dibilitating at times. I wish I can offer advice. Hang in there honey. With love , Krisi

Oh yeah.... their is already a lawsuit in place. Coincidentally she just retired. But so far her insurance has offered $100,000 , I said no... then $500,000.... I said no.
Katey..... you said if you were certified... is that what your going to school for?
By the way, I'm not sure what your pain is, and I hope I didn't sound like I was trying to minimize it. I just wanted you to know someone out there understands the feeling!!!!! How are you feeling? Take care, Kristi> wow, i really admire your strength and courage. i also agree with John that you should sure the doctor who did it. if i was certified already, i would be happy to represent you and sue the doctor into getting his medical liscence taken away.

i'm glad theirs a law suit in place, this is what the suit system was designed for. as for law school...its my career orientation for the time being. but not for the big money, i'd rather do defense for those who cant afford it, especially in DP cases. in about a month it'll probably change again, but who knows- i think im on one of my political rightous anger streaks now.
you werent minimizing my pain in any way, if anything you were grounding me and giving me a badly needed reality check. you reminded me that compared to some people, i have it pretty easy. im doing ok for the moment, but im being foolish and tinkering with my meds without consulting my pdoc.

Understood. If you go thru with it, it's great. I really think people are brought on this earth to do good and it sounds like you want to do that.

I know what you mean..... I see a person with a burned face, and I think "Ok, what am I complaining for"..... at least my deformaty can be covered up. Becareful with tho's meds. Been there,done that. Let me know how your doing!!

i'm doing fairly good for the most part, night two of my experiment didnt go as well as night one did, unfortunately. and i've got an appointment with my pdoc for next thursday to discuss adjusting my meds. my parents threw a fit when they found out that we had added a third one. i think they think their child is turning into a drug addict :)
