My Fibromyalgia has been hard to control. I haven't been doing any writing for over a year now-as you can see. I am going to try harder though. I had surgery on my right rotator cuff 10 wks. ago. I had injured it on a trip we took to the East coast to see our Grandchildren in January. It was great to finally see them. I am now strengthening the rotator cuff. It is taking a long time to heal and progress as I had fell on it once 5 weeks post-op. That set me back about two weeks in my physical therapy. I am looking forward to knitting and doing more with my shoulder once again.
My son and his daughter will be moving out here soon. My daughter and her family are even considering it too. It would be nice to have my side of the family nearby me for a while-it's been ten yrs. since my children have lived nearby. I have missed alot of my grandchildren's growing up.
My husband is having more problems with his MS as I have been with my Fibromyalgia. My biggest problem with the fibro is that I can't take any pain pills they prescribe because I am always being allergic to them. My body just keeps rejecting them each time and keeps being allergic each time-even the pain patches. It's difficult to control the pain with just ice and motrin. I have recently begun a regimen of Magnesium which does help "some". Also, by experimenting with foods I have found that Cherries and Bannanas also help with pain. And the Bannanas eaten before bed also help me sleep a little better too.
