Hi Grace, I'm here - but you're right - extremely quiet. TOO quiet.. And Frank - if you were asking for anything except pie recipes, I could help you out. I learned many moons ago that I am not capable of making a good pie!! I'm sure you'll get some good replies when everyone wakes up.

See - we're all waking up. Congrats on that great nap, Candy! Love those myself. I'm with you on the weather. My husband left Friday for Lake Havasu, AZ which is absolutely beautiful. The lake is huge and the Colorado river is right there too. I have a lot of doctor stuff the next few weeks so was not able to go. But I will fly to AZ some time after that. Looking forward to the mild temps. This cold stuff hurts!

We are all here! It is really cold outside over most of the US, quite a drag. I know I have been nesting, making soup, eating cheese and staying warm. The cold hurts me so I do what I have to do to stay comfortable and I think that others are doing the same. Lori From: Grace M.

[TMIC] Doctor Appointment
I'm here too? I reduced my Cymbalta by 30 mg in December for a few reasons. 1. I didn't want to drive the 70 mile round trip for samples. 2. I didn't want to pay full price at the pharmacy. 3. I wasn't feeling bad, but I also wasn't feeling good - just kind of unemotional I stopped my remaining 60mg of Cymbalta for four whole days, because I didn't have any side effects from the 30mg reduction. I didn't feel any change in my mood, but the pain increase was intolerable. I took a 60mg pill on the fifth morning and I now know how much pain relief I get from it. I have a quarterly doctor appointment and plan on telling him about the 30mg reduction. I'm undecided about mentioning my four day blunder. Yes, I had a couple of physical effects besides the pain increase. I'll never try that again, however, I might try to ween off in the summer with my doctor's help. (My family knew, but wasn't happy with my little trial.) That's what I've been up to! Patti - Michigan
Re: [TMIC] Yooo...hooo....TMIC Members, where are you?
Actually, my nerve pain has been okay since my last shots(for back and legs). Shots have never lasted this long.But, I have an arthritic knee that one doc says needs to be replaced, but my pain management doc is trying to keep that from happening. I have knee pain 24/7, but is better with pain meds, just don't like to take much. Doc's think that after TM hit and I started walking again, my gait changed to accommodate nerve pain and balance and it got the knee in bad shape. If it isn't one thing, it will be another . Have any of you had a knee replaced since you have had TM?

Problem with that is I want the tree changes in the fall. And skiff's of snow.

Re: [TMIC] Yooo...hooo....TMIC Members, where are you?
Janice, glad to hear your shots helped with the nerve pain. Regarding the knee - what pain meds are you on? I was given Darvacet which didn't even begin to touch the pain. Already have Vicodin on hand, but that doesn't work either. So don't take anything. Just ice it. However, I am in aqua therapy actually because of my knees. I cannot have surgery of any kind. I'm building my muscles up to help take some of the pressure off the knees. It's been 3+ months now, and I can really tell a big difference. Gunny was kind enough to give me a lot of great info on what muscles need to be built up and how to accomplish this in the water. (thanks again, Gunny : ) I'm so amazed by what I can do in the water that I canNOT do on land! About the pain - I was getting 4 hours of sleep at the most because of pain - thought I was going to lose my mind, so doc put me on Ambien CR - well, that's a hit and miss thing. Instead of waking up after 4 hrs, I get to sleep maybe 5 hrs. It's gone on for so long now, I think I just can't break the cycle.

Good job you are doing, Janice!!! Jeanne
Re: [TMIC] Yooo...hooo....TMIC Members, where are you?
My pain med is Vicodin. It does help, but can not take much because of nausua. When it gets a little warmer, I think I want to start back into water therapy. Did that before I got TM.When you say you can tell a big difference after 3 months of water therapy, do you mean big difference in pain? Are your knees bone on bone? We are injecting rooster's comb into my knee, but so far 3 times isn't doing it. (That is the norm). He may have to do 5 times. I am not bothered with knee pain when in bed, just when I get out of bed and try walking. At night I have to use a walker. Gunny, you are probably reading this. Would you give me the muscles that need building up in the water?I could use the help.

Yup, yet that being said, I would rather hurt in the cold snow, than hurt in the freezing rain! For some reason, no clue why, it hurts more in the cold, cold rain than in the snow, even though it is colder when it snows! This winter is much better for me than last winter.

Re: [TMIC] Yooo...hooo....TMIC Members, where are you?
Yes my knees are bone on bone. And yes huge difference in pain level. Prior to the water therapy, my doc said it was time for 2 walking sticks that you wear on your arms. My legs were that bad. Ok, I have never heard of rooster's comb - so please tell me what that is. My doc did not want to inject my knees at all due to the risk of infection (I'm on immunosuppressants) Although when this first started and my right knee was swollen like a cantelope (for real) he did inject it. That did nothing. well, except for the first time in my life, I actually let out a scream when he tried to get that needle in my hugely swollen knee. I spent about 3 months sitting up in bed, icing my knees and literally getting up only when absolutely necessary! It was awful.

That sounds like hell!! So glad that is over with for you. About the rooster's comb. We all have it, or the stuff that is in the comb, in our bodies. With the loss of it between bones, we need to inject it back in. The percentage is high for big relief, but so far, I am still in the small percentage. I am really hoping that 2 more injections will do it. Okay, kiddo, I am going to bed.Talk to you tomorrow.

YES The pain has been intolerable. I am so discouraged by the constant dull ache, the burning and stabbing torso band, and the weakness in my legs. And the cold (-20 C / -30C) is way overboard. I'm heading to Hawaii, or Puerto Rico like BobbyJim suggested! Enough of cold northern Canada. What paperwork do I need?
