hi

I went to doctor's yesterday. He gave me a script for a diuretic for the swelling in my hands and feet. It was hard for him to tell my feet were swollen. I have small feet and they looked ok but my sneakers don't fit, they are too tight. So he took my word for it.

I have a torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder. He offered me a shot, allergic to that too, and surgery. I said no. He did say pt might help so i have an appointment next week for that.

He said he would make a referral to the rheumatologist I wanted to see. He made the referral and the other doctor's office called today. I have an appointment with her towards the end of next month.

The doctor suggested I get Mucinex. I cannot remember why he wanted me to get it. I totally blanked out during that conversation. I suddenly realized he was talking about it so i took notes. I called today and left a message asking what I am taking this for. I know what it is and i do have a cough but I don't know if we talked about it or not.

I just don't feel good today. I've had a couple of legs don't want to hold me up or I'm going to pass out, feelings today. Been tossing my cookies too but that may be the cigarettes and pill. I don't know. I went in to work for a few hours but left earlier than i planned. I have eaten today and had water. Maybe i need sleep. i woke up at midnight and couldn't get back to sleep. I don't usually feel like this from lack of sleep.

I still can't figure out how to get 5 vitamin D3 pills in me in one day.

Have a good evening folks

peace baby

I can see you're having a hard time of it right now. Hopefully, you will start to feel better soon. Let us know when you find out what the Mucinex is for. I, for one, don't know.

fgra--it is guiafenesin, it liquifies secretions, I take it daily for my sinuses and asthma. I think it helps with the fibro, too.

Sounds like you've gone through the wringer. Try to be gentle with yourself. Get some rest. Gentle hugs.

I heard that Mucinex helps with the pain. Do you have a Vitamin D deficiency? I take one pill a week, its a perscription of 50,000 units and its not really working. Hope you feel better soon. Hang in there, I hope you feel better very soon
