I know I can’t go without it but man I hate the side effects of all the meds I have to take just to survive a day….dizziness, light headed, cold sweat, heart pounding and that’s just sitting in my chair. But man let me skip even one and I am either very snarky or I just want to cry all day…..feels like I can’t win any way I go.

So now let’s talk about pain….dealing with pain ~ is that worse than mental issues or are the mental issues worse. So now pain management has been added to my list of doctors that I have to see….so let’s count….psychiatrist, “confessionalist”, spine doctor, ankle/foot specialist, G.P., and pain management….I have more doctors than most 90 year olds. Oh and let’s not forget the doctor I see for my stomach issues caused by all the meds I now have to take. This coming from a girl that only took ibuprofen for pain that started 25 years ago from a birth defect. My “normal” is no longer….

Did you know that I wanted to join the Air Force? It wasn’t until I told my dad that I wanted to join that I was told I would never pass a physical to join the Air Force. Even though I was born with a birth defect, I have always been told I can do anything…played soft ball, played basketball. It wasn’t until I had my sweet babies that my hips and low back shifted and for several years until I was told by my dr to stop working or I wouldn’t be able to walk…..gonna stop with that, went further with my story than I intended.

Until next tomorrow….Much love
