Just want to let my frienRAB know that I am taking a little break from the board. Know I will be thinking of all of you and have you all in my prayers. I'm feeling so fragile right now and I need to work through all this.
I'd like to share all that has happened today but I know you guys can't keep all the doctors straight and I can't either. Basically, there are too many players in my case...neurologist, surgeon, PM, employee health nurse, W/C nurse case manager, case manager and me. Spoke with neurologist and now need to see a psychiatrist to deal with the Cyrabalta again....yes again....W/D symptoms again and 2 horrific migraines in two days (yep side effect of coming off SNRI's). He claims I am one of the 1% dealing with coming off this way. He also wants to discharge me as a patient because I have not started the Nortriptyline....we discussed my fear of the drug and he didn't really care :(:( and does not think the Nortriptyline would help the W/D anyway???? He also said I am depressed and I have to agree that I am depressed about all of this crap......but am I suicidal..no.....I still get up everyday and go to work...not today though as I have cried all day....I truly believe when women have issues and no one can figure out why it gets thrown in the "depression can". Anyway, I will await my date for my new MRI for all this worsening pain. I just want answers, I just want to feel better, I just want someone to listen to me, I just want someone to coordinate my care since it is W/C and everything has to be approved and I can't coordinate it myself.
So my frienRAB i don't want to drag you all down with me :( I'll check on you guys.....curse this pain in all of us.....thanks for listening and supporting...I'll be back soon.

Deb,
I really hope you get the answers that you're looking for. Just know that all of us will be praying for you.
 
Deb, I am so sorry and I want you to know my heart aches for you. I have not been as active on the board for various reasons and sometimes taking a break is a good thing. Dealing with all this stuff 24/7 does get old and it can get the better of you. Please know that I care and you are on the top of my prayer list. (((((HUGS))))))))
 
Deb, my dear, you do NOT drag us down! We're all here for each other, as we all know that those around us who haven't been through it can only understand so much. We're glad to listen, give advice when possible, and pray. But we also understand the need to take a break. Come back when it's right for you and let us know how you are. We won't forget you! You take care of yourself!

Wishing you nothing but the best,
Emily
 
Deb, I understand your need to take a break. I myself have backed off a little bit lately. It can be very overwelming at times. We all wish you nothing but the best and have you in our prayers. I so hope you get the answers you need..................Debbie
 
Deb, I totally understand how depressing everything involving "pain" can be...and trying to keep all of the appts. straight..it's like we need a secretary just to keep up. Please come back anytime you can..the support will be here waiting for you. Take care please...thinking of you...

((((((((((((((((((Deb)))))))))))))))))))), I see you posted this last night after I was off my 'puter, but I'm going to reply anyway. I know how hard this all is and how depressing it can get. Like others said it certainly is okay if you need to take a break, everyone neeRAB a break now & then. It's also okay if you feel depressed in the sense that chronic pain can do that, so it's understandable, its nothing to be ashamed about. I'm sure we've all been through this. BUt also, don't be afraid to ask for help if you are feeling too down. I'll keep you in my thoughts & prayers and come back to vent or say hello anytime you need to!
