body parts and meds

I really wanted to post on a regular basis.  I really suck at this sort of thing.  I had thought that maybe I could post at least every other day.  Then I thought, I should be realistic and aim for once a week.  But life keeps happening to me, and not always in a good way.

Turns out I am suffering from fibroid tumors in my uterus, as well as an

the problem, is that he is a workmans comp doc. So (i'm dealing with 2 different doctors), and it is very hard to find a doctor to treat you for pain management, you're treated like a drug seeker just by the receptionists. I spent a few weeks a few years ago looking for a different doctor and gave up. Thankfully, the gynecologist is now moving forwad on my innards, so I'm hoping that things will get better. When I get all that out, and hopefull get better control over the medications prescribed to me, maybe I'll feel more like my old self, cause I sure have changed. It sucks always being sick, and always having pain, and trying to live your life anyway. But that's what we all have to do. Do the best we can with what we have. I think I sunk in a pool of bad meds (and bad metaphors) - but am looking forward to climbing back out.
Thanks for your support. Sometimes I don't like to say much to my family, because I feel like they hear it too much and I know that's no fun. Anyway I just have to keep looking forward to better things, and I do - it just all gets to me sometimes. But I have a wonderful Granddaughter who makes me laugh a lot, a new puppy who is a brat, four great children, and some in-lawish type kids (no-one's actually married yet) who all make up a pretty nice, if sometimes dysfunctional (but who isn't) family. The spice of life!

ahh, workmans comp is evil... I'm sorry. And yeah, I can understand about pain management being hard to find. Shitty but, too many people have abused the system so good people have to suffer.

I'm glad there are things that give you joy in your life. That does make it easier.
