Pain, Pain, Go Away…

.Reading time 9 minutes.

So, what I have is Trigeminal Neuralgia and Fibromyalgia.  Both are nerve disorders.  By pain level comparison, Fibro doesn’t even compare to TN.  So, as of now the TN is what is hurting me the worst.  Sometimes when I get some good TN pain control, I feel the Fibro.  And that pain is no joke […]

How Do I Answer You Honestly; And Keep My Head Above Water?

.Reading time 17 minutes.

People ask me how I’m feeling, or doing.  But how do I answer that? Like how do I REALLY answer that? I can’t say, “Good,” because I’m not good.  And I’m not going to be good until after I have another brain surgery at the end of November and then recover from that surgery. But […]

It’s been a little while.

.Reading time 4 minutes.

So, it’s been a while since my last post/blog/writing/entry, whatever you call what I’m doing. I have many excuses for that.  Here’s just a few: I didn’t think it mattered if I did or not, I didn’t think I was helping anyone anyway so why keep writing, I don’t have anything to say that will […]

I’m tired today…..

.Reading time 1 minute.

Originally posted on 8.24.16 Today, I’m tired. The camping trip, the 7 hour car ride, but mostly the TN chronic pain, it wears me out. So today, I’m in pain still, but mostly extremely fatigued. I haven’t put one single thing from our trip away yet. I did go through my daughters college dorm stuff […]

A day in the life……

.Reading time 18 minutes.

Originally written and posted 8.21.16   I’m not sure when I’ll be able to publish/post this entry as we are camping and our service is spotty at best! I don’t want to post ‘a day in the life’ type of entry daily, as that’s not exactly why I’m writing this blog. I do, however, want […]
