Here's a thought...

I'm just going to quit going to the doctor. Every time I go I get sicker!
On top of the Fibro I have also been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. It's mainly in my wrists, thumbs, and a few other pain in the ass (literally) spots. I'm on several different drugs at the moment. I'm starting to think my doctor is using me to replace all the money he lost in his 401k.
:::sigh:::
Am I depressed...no.
Am I cranky....stupid question I've been cranky since I was 8.
What I really am is pissed off and determined to wring every last bit of activity and action out of this breaking down body as humanly possible. By golly, my own body is not going to make me give up the things I want to do in my life!
So there!!

Stress even on vacation

OK, I've been drinking...so take this with a grain of salt. It's amazing the amount of stress you get even in a vacation atmospere. You don't realize how much your attitude can affect the people around you! One of my sister-in-laws (I have 4), who I love dearly, was stressing out yesterday while we were on Put-In-Bay and it made me stressed and caused a flare...I was miserable and taking so much Tramadol I was scared I would OD.
Now I understand projecting your feelings onto others, but I don't think those that are not affected by stress so much understand the impact they can have on the people around them.
So, in my slightly tipsy haze I have determined to keep my stressed out emotions to myself. There is no reason for me to project those feelings onto other people. At the same time I will ignore those stressing around me when I have no reason to be affected by it.
