I have kept a private journal with my bld sgs and what I eat for the last three years but this sounds like it would be good to share feelings and get feed back to help us feel better about our selves. Here go's
I have just come back from a four day vacation on which I had a wonderful time. It came at a good time for me because I just got out of the hospital. I feel pretty good now but notice i have some swollen glands and some hives on one arm. I have a small lump behind my left ear and the swelling goes down in my neck.I also have a small lump on my under arm right side and one in the groin area.I know its probably nothing but it scares me a little.I am really tired of having things wrong with me. There are a lot of people that have a lot more going on than I do so thanks for letting me vent.
Glad you had such a wonderful vacation. You deserved it. BUT those swollen glands mean you need to see the dr. There must be some infection. Maybe just some little thing that needs a round of antibiotic.
I did go to the Drs and he asked me if i had been biten by a tick. I said no, I don't think so . He sent me to the lab for blood work and U/A and chest xray.I have so much pain in my joints. My husband thinks he is looking for Lyme diease. I have to go back in a week
I am feeling a little better today but had a really bad weekend. So much pain I couldn't sleep and the knees and wrists were the worst. Not so bad this morning but I took a Darvecet with all my other pills. I will be glad to find out what is going on.
Daysee: hurting is no fun at all and it does sound like some kind of infection if glands are swollen. Hope it isn't Lyme disease. Were you on vaca where you could get bit by a tick?
Hope the holiday was a good one for you; that you were feeling better enough to enjoy it. Have a good rest of the week.
Well today I see the Dr and I woke up with a low and covered with hives. I sure will be glad to find out what is going on with me. Im getting really tired of the pain. Thanks Nana for the kind thoughts with all your going through.
Daysee: Hives can be excruciatingly painful and torturous. I have been looking for a post from you to find out how you made out at the docs. Please post when you can.
BTW: what I am going through does not lessen the importance of what you or anyone else is going through. If things are causing pain or sadness etc... to anyone else it is just as important as what is going on with me.
I posted my results from my last Dr.s appt. on general. I really believe its a reaction to the pneumonia shot. I can't really afford another specialist right now so I will wait and see. If it flares up again then I will find one.
My pharmasist told me it could most definetly be a reaction to the pneumonia shot. It attacks the imune system and she has seen a lot of reactions this year. Since I have never gotten a flu or pneumonia shot before, she says not to get one again. The next reaction could be worse. I can't take steroids so its going to take a little longer to get over it. But at least I know now what it is.
Well I am finally starting to feel good again. Most of the pain is gone, my knees still bother me, and hives are almost gone.Some lymph nodes are still swollen but many have gone down and the soreness is almost gone. i sure don't want to go through that again.
