Finaly admitting work to much

Posted , 3 users are following.

Last night I had a seizure (suffer Catamenial/ functional seizures). And i had to txt my boss to say cant come in. Woke with a migrain plus fibro pain is increasing Not a good day!!!!!!!!!. My Aunty visited me and helped me start ball rolling for PIP. Not sure if i will get it, but just feel like work is to much stress of knowing i will be in pain after shift then stress about if i am off i wont get paid. I have tried for so long and strugled.Its mentaly hard to come to this decision because i want my independence. But i have struggled for years only 42 . Ahh well. Last week went for nurophycology app she was really nice, have a few more visits think positive this will help. Sorry just going on Just needed to See how other people cope with this decision.

    Dear Hazel,

       If you ever want to read a book, our emails are a good beginning to one. Title " Be there, done that and worn the T-shirt". How many people in this beautiful blue gem are suffering from what doctors like to label NEAD. I said to my daughter about my last prolong seizures that my surpress childhood trama must of been trying to suface in the worst way but my consous mind won out. It was a battle royal. Really. According to my family doctor that's the answer. I remember most ,if not all my brain shaking bad memories. One time I went to local horse race with my father. It was the first time I ever and last bet on a horse. The poor horse when making a bent in the track fell with the rider going over its head. Horriable. I was a teenager and that scene burt itself in my memory. They dragged the poor thing off the track dying.Any ways.

       I'm 5'7" so you are one of the little people ,wee one. Great things come in small packages. When I read your emails you bring a big smile to my life. We sound like two of a kind.  You know I love a good fish and chip dinner with malt vinagar, ketchup and tarder sauce. My spelling can be bad.

       My daughter Charlene bought a beautiful purple dress for the cruise and a corset to pull in her bulges. Brave girl. The last days to our cruise seem like the longest wait time. Oh I hope so much that I will not have a seizure landing or take off on the plane. Those seizures leave me so out of it and weak in the legs. I have been actually carried off my last plane trip and put in a wheel chair. My daughter said we will just deal with it if it happens. My son Johnathan said he will come to my house and sit my cats while we are on vacation. Good son he is.

        My two year old granddaughter just had her first asthma attack a few days ago and was in hospital. Asthma runs in our family. His wife blamed him for it and called him bad names. She is a work of art. She can be nasty and unloving to him. He said he does any thing to avoid her anger. Pussy whipped. Oh a naughty word. 

        My daughter is so good when I have seizures. When the doctors dope me up on sedatives I fly with the birdies. 

        Charlie sounds like a beautiful dog. I grew up with dogs and cats in the country.

                        Sending you smiles and hugs.
