And here I feel comfortable doing it.
I am a virtual cornacopia of symptoms right now!! First I'll have a D attack, then fine, then C. My tongue has been burning for about 10 days like I've scalded it!!! OUCH! Plus my joints are aching - especially my hips and legs. I have the wickedest pain in my breasts - have already had a mamo and am now waiting 6 to 8 MONTHS to see a specialist because they don't suspect cancer. I'm dizzy, I'm always tired, and I'm sick of being sick!! This stint of bad health has been for over 2 months!! I've never gone this long, this badly since I was diagnosed in 1994! I spent the weekend away in MN and hoped some relaxation time would help and it didn't. I had attacks, cramping, and lots of pain. I enjoyed the trip despite the fact I was miserable health wise. I am getting married on June 3rd, I want to feel better!!!! I will finally see the GI on May 8th, but is he going to have a miracle cure for me 3 weeks before my wedding? Probably not. I'm trying to stick closely to the SF and Heather's diet suggestions. I even took only SF snacks with me on holiday - the customs guard would have wondered about me if we had been searched. My fiance is wonderful - he worries, even forgot the off-ramp when we needed to get back to the hotel Sat quickly. His mom worries too - we were traveling with Thomas' parents. But worrying and telling me it will be alright isn't what I want!! I'm selfish right now, I wanna feel better! I wished everyone a good day every other day, and right now I can't even have it myself. I'm frustrated beyond belief. That is the best way I can describe it. Sorry, I know everyone else out there is going through or has gone through the same thing as I am. But the nice thing is, you all understand where I am coming from.

Thanks for reading / listening...
