Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 11:58 AMThanks, Betty, for the supportive words. I'm sorry to hear you were fired from your last job for taking too much time off. I made it through most of that day and took yesterday off. Wish I could stay home today as I am so tired from a restless night.
You're right about not being productive when pain levels are high. It's hard to balance working full-time with chronic pain.....the two don't mix! Right now I'm on a 30-hour doctor prescribed work week. That's helping for sure.
Right now I feel like I'm dealing with so much....not just the pain, but sleep disturbance, depression, and generally feeling overwhelmed.
How are YOU feeling today?

Monday, July 13, 2009 at 05:19 AMgood day yes I can relate,this every day of dealing w/unrelenting pain is the most challeging situation,there seems to be no answers and no long term relief most days I'm able to deal,,,but some days are so bleak and depressive that I don't want to be awake! this is all new to me and I have to come to terms with trying to cope and to slowly learn to function on an entirely different level than before my body betrayed me.I suggest you look for all the good in your life and I know it's hard,but it does help.Just having this site is a huge outlet for me and I'm soo glad I have found it.I wish you a low pain day,sincerely Starflake

Hello Lavagirl and Welcome to the Chronic Pain Connection.
As I read your words today, I could not help but completely sympathize with you. I actually was fired from my last job (Never been fired from anywhere in my life) for missing too many days of work. So I do understand your worry and not wanting to leave and go home again.
I'm sure you already know this, but I find when my pain is that high, I'm not productive anyway, so I may as well be at home laying down. I hope you made it through your day with out having a leaky face at work or on your way home. I also hope you have some time off soon, so you can get your pain down & under control.
PS: Don't forget your BT's sweetie, that makes it all the worse. So sorry for you.
Lotsa Hugs
Betty
