Medical Overwhelming Health Issues

Hello @Kailani and thank you for taking the time to share. You are right, it can put one in a bad spot emotionally, but it does help to know I am not all alone in the struggle for better health.

I am so sorry that you too have these extra health issues to contend with. I have found the saying "Progress not Perfection" to be most helpful to me as I work towards improving the quality of my life.

I hope you will find the things that bring you a better quality of life as well and if you do not mind, I will add you to my prayer list and keep you in my thoughts.

Wishing you comfort, health and healing,
Lionheart
 
awwwww you have already been on my prayer list; thank you. Thankfully I am feeling much better than I had been!!!!! Hope you are too!!!!
 
One thing I like about Laurence Heller's work is that he explains why early trauma affects our health in predictable ways. Ask me for details and I can't remember them, except to say that there are diaphragms in various parts of the body (including in the soles of the feet, of all places) that are perpetually tightened through trauma and can lead to certain symptoms. Migraines are one I remember. This is just one more reason why I believe it is important to include the body in trauma work.
 
I have been having severe headaches for the past couple years. Not sure how much more of them I can handle. Had numerous blood tests, CT scan and MRI done. Couldn't find anything, except possibly acute sinusitis. Frustrating.
 
I have been overwhelmed with daily medical problems and regular chronic pain. Whether tolerable or not, I must pretend and trick myself that the symptoms and pains are manageable. I can do this mostly well unless: unrelenting, "crowding"; repetitive or loud, external noises; nor while exposed to negativity, or an abundance of incoming requests, plus while meeting families needs and far too often confronted with frightening hostilities and aggression of family member's "issues".

I am finding life impossible and certainly cannot keep up with treatments, memory, adequate hygiene and the medical problems and pain I'm faced with. The four worst spots I'm dealing with pain is often localized in areas of my spine, head and behind my left eye and alongside my left breast. Yet more recently, this pain is including my entire spine top to bottom.

Damn. This sucks saying anything and not just completely blotting this out along with all willingness to share here. Perhaps, I'm saying something now because I woke up entirely too fed up to blatant lies and defiance and frustrated immediately while in intolerable pain and resulting in me raging.

So *#%!... depressed and angry about a handful of things.
 
hey guys, mostly recovered me/cfs/fibro patient reporting in.

i wanna invite you all to really take care of yourself and your bodies; really make the effort to come back to full health, or better health, or slightly improved not completely utterly terrible health. do what it takes. love yourself. block out narcissists, abusers, and anyone who drains your time and energy.

peace.
