Aww Mrs. R.!  Oh man, well as of today, I've had pain for exactly 4 weeks.   I've been slowly getting tests done and I think we have a light at the end of the tunnel.  I am very slowly on the mend.  Yesterday was pretty good, I had some appetite again, but today I'm  :-\\\\ again. Oh well, I am just going to take it one day at a time. I really hope to make it into work on Monday, because I am definitely going crazy signed off from work.  Even if I can make it in for a few hours, that will make me very happy. Thank you for asking!!!!

So are they figuring out what's going on?  Are you getting medicated or treated or whatever it is that you need?

Kind of. Sort of.  Its been a very, very slow process.  The doctors are like, "okay try this and see if does anything".  I come back "That didn't do anything" . "Okay, try this. And we'll take some more blood". I come back a few days later "That didn't do anything. I'm still in pain" Doctor's- "Well, the blood tests didn't show what we wanted, we'll order this test and in the meanwhile, take this" and so on and on it goes...  Its been a lesson in frustration. But on the plus side, my pain tolerance is getting higher!
