Well my friends,
1ST I had to quit smoking. I have tried before and went for 3 weeks. But this time I have to go all the way.Had x-rays and they also showed signs of emphaziam(sp). This runs all through my Dad"s side they were all plumbers/steam-fitters.I go back to Doc. next week. to see what course of action we are going to take. The Rhuemy insisted that I have a MRI so I went last week and failed it big time. I could not lay on my back long enough to even get the 1st. round done. I go back to him 12-6.
Funny ya know, the Fibro. hurts and does scarey things to you and your body. But honest to God, friends THIS :eek:
My family Doc. but me on stronger anti-depressant. I still catch myself doing dishs,watching tv and the tears just start in.
Oh well, I can say I know how I will go, just have to fight the like the devil to make it longer then normal. Then again what is normal?? I NEVER have been normal <G> Thanks all you. This is the one place I can come and really tell my fears,and cry and that helps. My hubby says We will make it. We always have and always will, Just hang on to me.

Movin listen to hubby, you can make it! When you stop and think about it what choice do you have, just keep thinking positive thoughts. Attitude is everything!! Lean on hubby and lean on us we will help in anyway we can.

Hi Sue,
Sorry for your news and will be praying that everything works out just fine for you. I had a chest xray done about a year ago, my Dr. called and said they found a nodule on my lung, I was a mess. She ordered a c-scan and there was no tumor, they wre seeing bone spurs in my thorastic spine. I am sure they will do more tests on you and hopefully everything will be fine.

HUgs, your bud, Linda

little sister you go ahead and cry anytime you want. it is part of adapting to your new reality. every day since the day you were born is a gift. tomorrow will be too.
normal? there is no such thing as a normal life span. it just is what it is till it ain't no more.
a good husband is like having "god" right there with you when you are afraid. let yourself lean.
this really does put fibro in perspective for you. i can see that, and i understand.
no matter what tomorrow brings smell the flowers today. don't let this cloud your vision so much that you forget to live today to it's fullest. every today is a treasure no matter what comes thru the door.
know that you are loved and supported by all of us here. we will wrap you in a special blanket golden knows how to make. it is filled with energy, love and living. i love her blankets.
thank you for starting a thread so we can all be here for you.
peace and love,

GoodMorning my loving wonderful family,
Is'nt funny how you can feel so close and loved,and cared about by people you have never seen or touched? But you know they care because of the words they send? Life can be amazing huh?
Thank you allfor the WORDS who would know how much they could mean So God Love all of you.
Blue, I will take all the help I can get. But I really need the laughs, it is much nicer feeling than the crying. :D I'm not giving up,I'm going to leave this life,fighting screaming and kicking.
Gee; maybe God had a reason for us planting all those flowers! I won't have to go far to enjoy them.
I wonder if the monitor would let us set up a here's a laugh thread?
Love you all and thanks again

Sue a laugh thread would be great because all you read is pain and dispair.We need some laughs. I had so much pain in my ribs, breast and bra strap area yesterday i wanted to cry but was afraid I would make the pain worse.

Keep us posted on what is going on and remember we love you and are here for you. Blue is so right with her post, she should be a writer I just love to read her posts.

Love and hugs, Your bud, Linda
