oh well. a good day is a relief but not this day. where i use to work when things went askew one would reply "i am having another first day"

And I did put on the pounds—about 20 of them. But I sleep better and can forget about the pain for hours on end. It is harder getting up from sitting, and walking is a bit harder; but with the pain down, I can actually think and do things with my mind, impossible before since it took an act of great will to push the pain down enough to do anything useful.

I also stopped Neuronton (gabapentin) as it was doing absolutely nothing for me except cause me to gain some unwanted and unneeded pounds. > >I can't see putting stuff in your body if it doesn't help. > >I will hope you continue to feel better. > >Patti - Wisconsin > > >On Mon, Oct 3, 2011 at 6:37 PM, john snodgrass <[email protected]> wrote: > >I have been through several days that were not as bad as normal. i am glad for >the relief. learned not to hold my breath but to take one moment at a time. >> >> >>i stopped taking one of my meds. it stopped being useful.

I signed up today because I visited with David and Judy Hoops , aka Hey Jude, today and we talked about how long it had been since we had been on the TMIC. I visited the archives to see what the current subjects are and who was participating and the subject that caught my attention was RE: facebook. How fitting. That was exactly what Dave and Judy and I talked about. They told me about TM on FaceBook and how confused they get by it and wondered if it had totaly replaced TMIC. I told Dave I would chek into it and let him know what I found out. >> >>It was good to see so many people post on that subject. There were names that I hadn't seen on TMIC for a long time. It sounds like a lot of people were lurking I the background. I remember the last post I read. Someone asked how Saronj from India was and she answered. >> >>Jude has been in hospital twice in the last three weeks. She sure is a trooper! She's in ICU now awaiting test results. >> >>I think I'll stay on TMIC for a while. >> >>Patti - Michigan >>TM for 8 years and wouldn't have known what to do without TMIC and the TM Forum. I'm glad there's plenty of info for new TMers, however, my brain couldn't have handled it all back then. >> >> >
