[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 116128, member: 393"] I so appreciate your understanding hugs. They have been needed of late. I guess the depression part of this long term thing has hit - that along with the long term steroid treatment is playing havoc with my emotions. My GP is ready to send me to a psychiatrist to help with the emotional end of things as the steroids are not going away. In the meantime, as my insurance has changed, I need to find a new therapist. I intellectually know these things - I can't seem to get it together enough to act on. Seems a tad silly; can do it for kt & wm but not for myself. I'll get past this pity party & go onto another until I get through all the acceptance of the changes in my life; my body. I'm determined to push myself to my highest level of functionality AND I know I may never get back to where I used to be. I hate that but must accept it. I think once the hating/resentment goes away I can move forward. No matter the course of treatment or prognosis. Let's face it ladies, a syndrome with only 200 plus known cases doesn't have much to go on. It doesn't have much of a prognosis. As the oldest person diagnosis'd with this syndrome I tend to look at the unknowns; especially in a person of the ripe old age of 51. I need solid evidence. I'm not one of those people who's willing to be a research experiment for the benefit of others. Okay, done whining - I'll move on for the day. There's laundry to do, menus to plan & groceries to order, have PT this coming week & a repeat fluroscene angiogram to be completed. kt must be seen by her pediatrician. And this is normal stuff & must be addressed. No time to whine. [/QUOTE]
