I will be so glad when we get fully into fall and away from the time of seasons changing over. I hurt so bad I've been having nightmares every night of being tortured. And I don't wake up from them either, I sleep deep and sound. It's getting where I almost don't even want to go to bed at night. I won't share the gruesome details, but the nightmare pains are as bad as the daytime pain. Arrrrggghhhh.
Thanks for letting me tell somebody.

Check on the medications you are taking, Karen. Terrible, vivid nightmares can be a side effect. I had them for a couple of years, before the doctor asked if I was doing OK on a med. I said 'well, I do get these ... ...' and he took me off it straight away. I bet it isn't the only one. . In message , "Karen, Queen of Squishies" writes
I'll second what Pat says! jennellh
((((((((( Karen )))))))))) Call your pharmacist and your doctor. One of them may be able to help you out. Sometimes horrid dreams are a side effect of medications. Poor baby .... wish I could help.
hugs, Sunny
I'm glad I told you guys about this. I never thought of it as a side effect because I've been on my meds. for awhile now. But sometimes things build up. WAY down on the list of side effects for my anti-depressant it says "abnormal dreams". I've been on this med. for years with no problems. It still may be my daytime pain flowing over into my nighttime dreams. I'm going to talk to my accupuncturist tomorrow about all of it. Sometimes he comes up with just the simplest solutions! And one advantage, well - the only advantage I know of, to being so sensitive to things is that when things work, they work very well.
Off to handquilt for awhile. Love you guys!!

Poor Baby and here I was wishing for summer to be back in full force due to the fibro flare I am having due to the cooler temps and this rain. Sending comforting prayers and gentle hugs to you my dear friend.
Love in Stitches,

((HUGS)) And here I've been complaining about the weather because I have nothing to wear to work in the mornings.

Saw my doc this morning, told him how it's been. There was some little thing wrong in my neck. He gave me a treatment, and things are moving in the right direction now. I feel like I just woke up or something, the lights are on! LOL If I just could have held on a little longer and not come in here whining, I wouldn't have worried everyone. I need to learn to buck up a little.
Today I am going to attempt to finish the hand-quilting I've been working on. Then on to the binding. : )

Yes, but: what if you hadn't had the doctor's appointment this morning, you got a little bit of 'mental' relief just from talking it out. 'Bucking up' might be just too difficult just yet. Glad you have a 'fixing adjustment'. . In message , "Karen, Queen of Squishies" writes
Nah, without putting it into words here, and the words that came back, you might not have realized all that was going on. We get so used to things we think they are normal. Having a little whine sometimes straightens that out.
Whee hee!
Well shucks, I will gladly listen to you whine anytime because it is so good to listen to ya when you are feelin' better.
Love in stitches,
Coleen (now if we could just get rid of this rain so I wouldn't have to whine so much, lol)
Yikes Karen! I know what you mean about the change of seasons riling up aches and pains--I've experienced that too--but no nightmares.
Gentle hugs, Michelle in Nevada
Glad you're feeling better, Karen. As for the whine--sometimes that's just a method for asking for feedback. These RTCQers have had lots of experience, and therefore lots of good suggestions.
Best regards, Michelle in Nevada
Awwww, Karen. Poop to 'bucking up'. Very often, someone here will see something in a whine that is not apparent to the whine-ee. We've had some really terrible experiences with prescriptions that not our doctors but our beloved pharmacists were able to resolve. We learned here that the pharmacist is our friend. Ours looks like he's only 15 years old but he is one smart cookie. Polly
