I think everyone will totally understand if you don't reply. You've got a lot on your plate but I think and hope you've got an answer and hopefully it can be fixed and you can hopefully start to enjoy life. You've got this! Keep going. Love you.

I meant it as a compliment. Most of us in late adulthood would love to have won the Battle of the Bulge, even if it wasn't comfortable doing so.

"wasn't comfortable....."?????????????????????

come on, Shades. This is a deeply personal thread where one of our own has made it clear what she is suffering through. Please, just think before you post these quips.

Perhaps you missed my post wherein I said "In that case, I apologize for my comment."

No I didn't miss it. You apparently missed my point however --that you have a habit of making comments like this and they are hurtful. Your weak apologies (that only come after someone calls you out) don't undo the damage. That's why I suggested you consider the nature of the thread BEFORE you post your insensitive quips.

Should I have refrained from apologizing?

Would you like to retract that and make a more appropriate comment?

Or not. You certainly have the right to continue posting hurtful and unkind things on this thread. That's what your right to free speech is for.

Feeling more than a smidge better tonight! It's 3 a.m. and I managed to concentrate long enough to make a new topic thread about Decluttering and Minimalism that I discussed with msnobody a while ago! I know I won't be awake until the sun comes up with symptoms! Blessed relief!

To sleep, perchance to dream.

That's gotta be in the public domain. I can post it without attribution.

Okay, it's Shakespeare.

Find another thread, cupcake. This is an adult party.

So...I didn't mean to be mysterious or dramatic when I wrote about that ER event. There are things I'm going to keep off the board so I'm doing it again. I have no problem discussing in messages.

ER yesterday (technically today) again 2 - 4 a.m.

My report is that it was related to the previous event and I wanted to head it off at the pass if possible before it snowballed into afib/rvr which it never did. Got some Torradol. Kind of liked that. Also wanted some imaging to have as documentation for 2 doctors.

Did it and got it!

All and all, I think we're on to something that could easily lead to the last turning point I need to make for a full recovery from these 2 years of misery. "Misery" doesn't really do justice to it, but I look forward to the rest of this journey because I think there's light at the end of the tunnel for sure.

Do I think I'll never be in gastric hell again? I don't know. All I know is that I see an answer and a solution that makes too much sense not to recognize it. I'm very happy about this!

Talk in messages if you want. It won't hurt my feelings if no one does I promise. <3
