So Mrs wonderer pain while sleeping saga continues.

Last night was her worst night of sleep since this whole thing began about a week ago. She thinks she may have had a reaction to the Doxy and/or the Tylenol she took before bed. She’s staying on the doxy and trying Advil instead.

The pain has moved from her left arm to include her back, her hips and her right leg.

She was miserable this morning, and now that she is up and around, she said she feels great.

But then when she is ready to sleep??? It all goes to shit.



It’s almost beer o’clock.

40 more minutes in my work day
my eyes are twitching, quivering, and telling me "We're done!"

What's everyone else up to??

Everyone feel better.... that's an order

Working on it - some have had better progress than I (at least today )

Just had a piece of lefse with butter and sugar... yum

Mmm... tell me you're Norwegian without telling me

The more core strength one has, the more support for the back.

So True!

I had to google it! Sorry @likes2watchU …. I am the 3:51am researcher today!

Thanks, @Wonderer67 - work is going to be beyond crazy until almost Labor Day. Appreciate you taking a turn at the Reference Desk

Yes Ma'am!
That's kinda what my Lovely Wife Goddess said, as She waited up for me til 2 A.M. ,to complete my 1,000 mile trek....
She also poured me a nice shot of rum...

I'm SOOOO Blessed and I KNOW IT!!!

Aww... that's absolutely lovely!! Glad you're home safely and each of you can dote upon the other properly now.

That is love, right there!

Heck yeah, it is!!

Yes sir!... especially after Her, having to spend Tuesday in the ER.... She's a saint!

How's she doing, @Boat1?

I'm a need a 2nd truck Thanks

Yeah you don’t want to come back to a bar full of sick people that’s work!

You ain't kidding... played that game a few times growing up in a large family. Do not recommend!

I”m going to sit quietly, kiss the pretty bride, shake the handsome grooms hand, drink all the free booze and dance and embarrass as many of the uptights as I can…and probably myself. Will report back on Monday or Tuesday.

Have a marvelous time!!!

Flat bread made from potatoes...is a Norwegian thing.... yummy

Divert that truck my way.
Have a great day all. Gonna be over 100 today

Fight you for it.

105 here the next two days
Going to have to make sure the plants have plenty of water
Just put in my special plants a few days ago

Poor babies!!
(I know... no watering can, sprinkler, or garden hose... let alone an emoji for a certain plant )

I got to cook and serve Her brunch... it's quite satisfying to do so!

Mmm, hmm

I do all of the cooking on our house too! I enjoy it.

Same - but cooking for 1 hits differently... so a lot of my meals are more grazing the fridge and

She thinks she may have had a reaction to the Doxy and/or the Tylenol she took before bed. She’s staying on the doxy and trying Advil instead.

I had to reconfigure my entire medication schedule when I was on doxy last year.
I'm sure it was communicated but...
Avoid Sun - real or fake
Do not take the following w/in 2 hours of Doxy (before or after):
Calcium
Dairy
Magnesium
Iron
Zinc
There may be more but those are what I have on my reminder note (still taped to my monitor)
Sure hope she feels better soon!!!

 

[Wonderer67]

Mrs wonderer has Lyme myalgia, which is severe muscular skeletal pain from Lyme.

Weirdly she is fine during the day, but the minute she stops moving her arm and back and hips and legs hurt.

So continued doxycycline. It’s a powerful medication.

How awful... and insidious that it ramps up at the exact time you need to get restorative sleep.
Myalgia

I have zero experience w/ Lyme myalgia, but when I had my worst pain with the tendonitis - this product helped me. Not sure if it would be beneficial for Lyme myalgia.
It's not cheap, but I would buy it again because it worked for me. (The 1st medication caused a huge allergic reaction)
Available online. I found the best price at Massage Warehouse online

True satisfaction!
"Service" is a beautiful thing!

Can i get a happy ending there??

Askin for a friend.

I have some CBD lotion, but she doesn’t like it. We’ll see what happens.

Fk, just Fk!
It boils my blood to even think about it... hopefully, Y'all caught it in time for a positive response to the medication!

Mrs wonderer has Lyme myalgia, which is severe muscular skeletal pain from Lyme.

So, is the Lyme discovery new for her? IIRC she was just tested, right?

Weirdly she is fine during the day, but the minute she stops moving her arm and back and hips and legs hurt.

That sort of stuff is really annoying. Suffer from somewhere similar stuff, and can say having long term constant pain is a bitch!

Send her , and tell her I hope she has a quick recovery.

Have a safe drive. Closest I've been to there is Aitkin, other side of Brainard from there. I liked the drives around that country.

Time to pull the plug too. Tomorrow will probably be a busy day again Making some good progress on getting the garden fence up. All the posts are in, need to stretch fencing soon. Then a couple gates to build. But I'm paying for all that work. The body isn't liking the allergens and bugs out there!

All that for the one stinking deer that's hanging around!

She was tested on. Monday but it was a full panel, like 10-12 seperate tests.

I have had a chronic pain thing going on all spring. (I mean my back always hurts, but this has been progressively worse).

Now I am having the same pain she is at night. Hops, IT bands, si joints. I’m gonna go to the doc in the am.

At least, with a proper diagnosis, she will, hopefully, be on the road to recovery soon.

Went for walk this morning but didn't have my phone with me. Saw that the blackberries around the barn are starting to turn. Not ripe yet but already black in color. Don't ask me how I know they are not ripe. Yuck!

A bit tart?

 

[Lilianna23]

Yes Ma'am, I'm aware of the warnings about Comfrey, but big pharma hates natural remedies, so the testing done on lab rats, would be the equivalent of me eating bales of Comfrey.

I'm not familiar with it. I did a cursory search. Still, be careful. The liver can heal itself and regenerate, but only up to a point.

 

[Lilianna23]

Thanks as those exercises are exactly what I need. Fortunately there is no numbness or weakness. I plan to discuss it with my PCP and getting some PT is a good idea.

I'm glad I could help!

 

[Lilianna23]

Good morning all. The exercises are helping my back. Thanks to all for the suggestions. I’m also seeing the doctor to get some PT.

Nothing special today just relaxing and watching some baseball. My Tigers have the best record in baseball!

I'm glad the exercises help. They are the same ones a physical therapist taught me years ago. They work like magic! You might also try an exercise ball. I have a large one. I sit on it then lay back stretching my back. Just rolling around on it feels marvelous!

 

[nipplecaresser]

Good morning liquor lovers. The sun is shining (99° here yesterday) and the weekend is here. Get working on that all-over tan but remember to put plenty of sunblock on those sensitive spots

 

[Lilianna23]

Thanks!
I appreciate the help as well, I assure you!
...if y'all could only see a brief clip of my life as a "gearhead"... washing aircraft parts elbow deep in 100 octane leaded fuel, covered in nearly every petrochemical and drilling fluid you can imagine, enough straight liquor to float a battleship.... I don't think it's going to be the occasional use of Comfrey that takes my liver out.

Just be sure to give your liver some rest periods!

Wat had to do a little Lit community service . I hope he gets back soon.

Went closet shopping yesterday and found an outfit for this wedding. The only $ I have to spend is on a new tie. I wans’t even going to wear one, but the invite said Formal Attire. I feel like I can get a couple drinks in the bag after the ceremony and shed it. Any wedding planners out there with some advice?

What REALLY matters is what SWMBO says/thinks. I'd go with that!

 

[Lilianna23]

Shoot, I pretty much do these already...

Again, does anyone have good news?

It's most helpful if you do them on the regular!
