Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
NHWM how are your daughters?
I don't know if Statin drugs can cause severe foot pain.
But I will share that I do have severe foot pain and do not take statins.
Do you think severe foot pain can be caused from statins?
Years ago, when I fell and broke my ankle (not as serious as yours), I was having trouble walking. Some of it was caused by lower spine issues. A wheelchair was sent. (Not a treatment, and to be avoided).
When I walked into the chiropractor, holding onto the walls for balance, I did not even think there was a chance for me. But within two months, I could walk again.
You might know this already, but be sure to fully investigate the reason for your fall. It could be neurological, or a medication (even statins).
And slow way down. My feet were not going in the direction I was aiming them, so I had a total of 3 falls over two years.
You can recover! Do your PT, and if you can, see a chiropractor when the time is right.
Best wishes Bridger!
bridger- sounds nasty. Hope you get our mobility back.
Needhelpwithmum: what about your daughter?
A call from my dd1 to tell me to call ts2 who has been trying to reach me. I just have not felt like talking with anyone much lately. Dd1 told me that one of my best friends from high school has passed. Colon cancer stage 4. Hard to believe, am I in denial?
When my mom passed this friend made a beautiful, smallish flower arrangement on a rattan heart and such a sweet note. My mom was the fun mom and helped friends with crafts and sewing and just ideas. This friend worked in the grocery store floral department where mom always shopped. She would tell me stories of mom getting lost in the store. Mom was always found on the candy aisle.
She loved my mom and mom loved her. And there were two of them, identical red head, Swedish twins and went to the same church as well.😢
Thinking of you this morning and hope things go well with your appointment. Prayers sent.
I just read up on Crohn’s disease. The symptoms sound awful.
Met friends for coffee this morning. Felt good to do something normal, first time on my own in nearly three weeks. Now it is time to nap.
Sorry to hear that your daughter is having a difficult time with her condition.
And very scary to be in a hospital during the pandemic.
I was hoping that a really good specialist M.D. would run across her and get her the care she needs for true healing.
I will be praying directly to Our father, who art in heaven....
On behalf of you, your husband, and your two daughters.
And hoping you will continue to be strong!
Thanks for telling us NHWM!
I have added your family to the prayer list at a praying church.
