Hi ladies

Just wanted to moan really. I can't understand how people don't understand how bad you feel (ie mum and husband )I am sure my mum thinks I'm always moaning about something. I really don't want to feel ill. My symptoms are so varied like loads of ladies. A few of them are:

Fatigue. I just went out to wash the car and half way I was out of breath and sweating.

Ears buzzing and jaw buzzing.

Not sleeping

Anxiety (terrible )

Feeling frightened inside.

Terrible acid reflux - burns in my nose too. I'm assuming this is reflux related.

Restless legs at night.

Doom and gloom(this is awful I was always a happy person

I'm not interested in going anywhere. Not interested in how I look and I always looked after myself. I like my clothes and makeup.

Weak legs

Freezing feet.

Don't feel like washing my hair.

I an trying to get on with things and ignore the feelings but I just can't.

Keep plodding on I suppose.

I'm afraid my husband will get fed up.

    I woke up feeling awful, had an MRI appointment, didn't think I could possibly handle it, but went, and it wasn't bad( with the help of meds)😊 Afterwards, hubby and I had a nice lunch! I can't believe my bra is still on! Boy, did that medication make me feel normal!  Love it!! Wish my doctor would prescribe it to me!
