Barbarba,
Hi, I'm sorry I didn't get to reply to your last post. Since my parents went away for the weekend, I was bombarded with work not to mention the stress that came along with it. I'm really sorry to hear about your incident with your husband. I'm also terrified my family would find out how miserable I'm feeling so I can just imagine how you must've felt. I'm hoping maybe it'd be a good thing that your husband now knows. Now maybe he can be more supportive and you'd have him to help you through this.
Not being able to sleep. Being in constant pain. It's been several months but I still remember all too well. Feels like you're in hell and sleep is the only escape. But not being able to is nothing but torture. I was so desparate that I got my doctor to prescibe me a stronger medicine. He told me it would knock me out. Well, it didn't! I just felt worse the next morning. I got even more desparate so I took alcohol with the meds which I know is a BIG NO NO. Still didn't work. I know Barbara. I'm sorry you had to go through it.
I was listening to the Christian radio station this morning. And the pastor was saying how the painfull and hard experience we go through are being used by God so that we can help others. If one never went through same/similar experiences, how can we comfort the other? As hard as it was and I'd never want to go through it again, in a way, I'm kind of glad because I hope that it would bring some comfort to you to know I went through the same pain and I know how it feels.
God loves you Barbara and will give you comfort. And we're all here for you. Please let me know if there's anything I can do. I hope to hear from you soon.
Today's been a really bad day. I'm in constant pain & I can't sleep. I desperately need to sleep. I've tried over the counter medicines but I'm still awake. I want to go to sleep.

How are you doing today? Did you decide to stay w/your sister? My day wasn't so great. I had a panic attack in front of my husband for the first time. Not a pretty sight. Though this has been happening for a couple of years, I've managed to keep them from him. Now the cat's out of the bag.
Kitn,
As soon as I finished reading your post, I started praying for both you and your husband. I can somewhat imagine how hard it must be for you both right now. I sincerely hope that your husband makes a full recovery and God gives you the strength to be strong. Please let us know how both of you are doing when you can. May God watch over you both.
Kitn:
I sincerely pray that your husband will be all right. I pray his surgery goes well. I know you will be strong enough to handle this crisis. I ask God to lend you any strength I may have in reserve for you.

Carry,
Barbara is right! Please do not take any medication that is not prescribed by a doctor. If you feel that you are in need of some medication, have your sister take you to a nearby clinic or hospital to be assessed.
Please be safe!

I understand the need for Zanax, but it's not safe w/o a doctors supervision. Go to your sister's house and lay low for a while. I tried talking to my MD about my anxiety but she's bound and determined to get my diabetes under control. She doesn't understand that anxiety raises blood sugars. I wish we could find a doctor that can deal w/every part of us.
