unhappy and unsatisfied

but i feel unsatisfied and unhappy but mostly unsatisfied. i'm not sure why. i think it has alot to do with my health and how i used to be and how i am very limited now.

for example i cant even enjoy you know with my hubby because i get muscle exhaustion. i cant enjoy housework because now i work 4 hours a day and come home feeling unwell. i cant just get up and enjoy life anymore. all i can do is go online and go on the computer and go out sometimes and go to work now (my first week). every action i take and every goal i set is limited by my health.

I used to dance. before i got really sick i realized what i love the most is dancing. now i cant do it :-(

what to do?

my first step i think is going to join the ymca. they have arthritis swim and chair classes so we'll see.

some pain relief

finally got some pain relief by sitting on a chair backwards literally on my crotch :-(

i dont know how i'm going to get by like this. i start work tomorrow and i'm starting school in a month.

i might have to invest in one of these kneeling chairs with a cushion/pillow.

chiari question (undiagnosed)

i noticed when i sit my hip bones put pressure into my spine putting pressure into my head causing horrible pain and then a migraine. this also happens when i walk and my heels put pressure into my head! is this chiari symptom?

im waiting on insurance to see a doctor.

health update

So I want to update everyone on my health. Its been a tough ride!

I'm feeling alot better now. My lab work shows no signs of any infection.

I'm starting a part time job next week at an afterschool program. I don't know yet which school it will be.

I'm starting school again for summer. I'm changing my major to psychology although I absolutely loved Communication Disorders! But that major was like taking a midterm every week in every class. There was no break. And it's too hard on my body. Psychology is a big major at CSUN so I can choose which teachers and what times I want classes. I will be graduating hopefully next spring!

I started acupuncture which has been helping my pain and sleep.

I hope to get health insurance soon so that I can see a few more doctors. My back is really messed up, I noticed I feel much better after eating salty foods, and i still get those pressure headaches and migraines.

I have chronic fatigue syndrome now because of the infection but I'm able to manage it fine, though I can't do any aerobic exercise.

I've had to work through all my feelings in regards to becomming sick which I hope to continue doing, because it changes your life dramatically.

And I hope that people will call me and hang out with me soon, cuz i miss everyone!

"flu lik esymptoms"

Quote:
'Flu like symptoms often occur when the thoracic spine becomes stiff. Passive or active mobilising techniques of the spinal and rib joints can alleviate the symptoms.


this quote was in the above website about hypermobility syndrome. does anyone have this? i do! when i would go to the chiropractor about every 3rd visity my thoracic back stiffens up and subluxes fast and i feel more sick trying to move it.

what has helped it for you?

instant antibacterial hand cream

do you think this is a good idea? i've stayed away from it mostly because i dont want to get a superbug but i'm thinking to try it out for a while cuz i might start working with kids again.

who uses it and who doesnt and why? does it help? if you dont use it what else do you do?
