Glad you could have a nice rest. Take things easy, it may be your bodies way of slowing you down and let you recover. Hope you find some energy over the next week.

Rest is so important to getting and staying healthy. And when in doubt, chicken noodle soup works great too. :)

Just can't get my act together. I feel like a broken record. I am so tired of feeling ill. I used to be such a happy person and full of life. I used to love the holidays and decorating and such. now all i want to do is lay on the couch. Just no energy. I am praying that by the grace of God somehow I will have a turning point and somehow be healthy enough to travel on the 17th, But if I am not there is no sense in me going up to Pennsylvania and trying to have Christmas with the grandchildren. I don't want to be known as the granny who just couldn't get out of bed. I am trying so hard not to worry about it for now as I have until the 17th to decide.
Hope all my sparks buddies are doing well.
Thanks for all your support.
Sallie

Please take this from another Expat who is 6,000 miles from my grandchildren. GO! No matter how you feel just GO, get on that plane! I would give almost anything to be able to be home in the USA for the holidays with my family!

If you can muster the gumption to go, please do so. I know you'll appreciate seeing them even without energy. It will fill your soul?

I hope you feel better soon Sallie, but I agree with the others. Maybe you should go and spend time with family, sometimes that is the best medicine.

Hang in there. You will find the answer your problems. It took about 35 years to figure out my stomach issues (definitely not wishing that on you!). But that was mostly during a time when celiac disease was unheard of. "What, you can't eat wheat? That's crazy" - Not crazy, gluten-free for 12 years now and feeling much better. Also took 10 years to figure out why my back hurt all the time (must be stress, here do some exercises for your lower back - but it's my upper back - do the exercises anyway)....again that was before MRIs were available and Dr.s didn't know anything about Chiari I malformations. Just be persistent with the docs, do research on the internet, don't be afraid to ask for tests - even insist on them - if you think they might find or eliminate a diagnosis. Definitely don't fall into the rut that you will always feel this way....you won't....keep pushing. I really hope that you will make it to see your grandkids. Life is to short to miss out on these things. Report Inappropriate Comment |

I sure hope this is temporary and you get back to your old sparkly Sallie. You have plenty of time to recover and build up your strength before the 17th.
