Hi Hugs! Thanks! and Good Luck to you too! I did see a dermatologist yesterday and he make a diagnosis. His new medications seems to be helping. Next time I will go straight to him instead of seeing a primary doctor first. Sure would of saved me a lot of worry and money.
Being type 2 diabetic skin wounds are a big deal if not taken care of right away and with the right diagnosis and medication..Anyway just thought I'd let you know I am on the mend again so I should be feeling better and doing more soon. Wishing you a restful nights sleep tonight.
Sleep tight..My Friend...Red...
Hi Red,
My nights are so restless that my teeth are getting worn, so I had resurfacing done. I'm going to get a sleep study to see if anything can be done. Good luck to you. Sometimes I feel like a guinea pig, as a member of a demographic that used to not live this long in the past.
I have been having restless nights since I got sick again with lots of anxiety about my present condition and of course nightmares again involving my past experience's with clinics and hospitals. I got brave enough to call the specialist doctor again this morning to see if he had any cancellations. I got lucky this time and will be seen this afternoon instead of waiting till the end of May..So maybe just maybe we can come up with a plan and get me back on my feet again. Laying around and waiting to get better so I can start working on my hobbies is very hard on my anxiety levels. Red:(
I have been taking it easy lately due to some health issues I am having at the moment but would really like to be doing more. So for now I am doing a little recreational reading, meaning reading a new novel and not reading health info on line. I would like to do a little quilting but that will have to wait until I am healed. There is a new Quilting Bee about a hours drive from me that just started last month they meet on the second Saturday of each month at a Antique Tractor and Farm equipment museum that I am a member of. So I have been trying to work on getting a project together to take with me to work on at this event. One thing I have noticed is that when I let the anxiety and stress of other peoples lives come into my life and later let them control my life here at home so much that I am not able to due what I would like to do and want to do with my life, that I eventually end up physically and emotionally sick in some way every time. It does take its toll. So for now I am down for the count I am being mindful of this and concentrating on taking care of myself better. So that I can get out amongst others that enjoy some of the same things that I do again.
I have been working on getting a project together so that I can meet with others once a month who are interested in getting together to share ideas and work on our individual projects together. At the moment I have had a setback because of some health issues I am having. So for now I will have to settle for laying down for a while with a relaxing novel. Till I get better. It seems that when ever I let other people stress and demands into my life I end up giving up what I want to do and then I get physically sick again. So for now like it or not I am down for the count again. That's if I want to get well and get out and work on my hobbies again....Red....
Hi Hugs, Thanks for reaching out to me with this information about this video. I just finished watching it and have to say it was excellent and thought provoking. Maybe I will make more of a effort to engage myself in some way in the physical world again....Red:))
Hi Red,
TedX is a series of wonderful motivational talks on youtube, and I last saw the "lethality of loneliness" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0hxl03JoA0. It gives me more concern about loneliness, and makes me want to get "out there".
