Couldn't say this any better. After 2 1/2 years of trying to find out what is wrong with my body I was being kept a prisoner by pain. At 27 I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I fought my body to have three kids. At 42 the endometriosis was raging with tumors all over my ovaries yet I wanted to stay a "woman" so I refused treatment. At 43 I was fully in menopause and now suffering more with endo and tumors. So at 44 in 2020 I had a full hysterectomy to eliminate it all and keep cancer away. Then a few months after covid hit I was again struck with debilitating pain like a wildfire it spread through my body and every single joint. It took two years of tests and incredible pain every time someone touched me or if I had to wear heavy clothes. My blood pressure went from abnormally low to a constant 150/105. Heart palpitations, extreme sweating, insomnia like I've never had before, and just a pure hate of the world.
After testing numerous medications, finding out I'm extremely allergic to a few, and even trying twice to kill myself in October of 2021. Never has my hubby had to call the police on me but he had to twice that month.
I stopped Gabapentine, Tramadol, and Cymbalta. I requested to be put on Tizanidine, Nortriptyline, and Buprenorphine. Game changer. I finally started feeling human in Dec 2021. Then by February 2022 I went to see my rheumatologist. I could no longer bend my fingers. My hands were constantly numb. Nothing was working. I was approved for a medical Marijuana card. But then I had to start looking for a job. I'm legally allowed to pop as much opiods as I can but I can't take a natural herb and get a job. You don't even smoke it....it's a controlled prescription of gummies and lotions and tinctures.
So after my Rheumatoid arthritis came back positive I was put on Hydroxychloroquine. So far it's been great!!!
Hoping 2022 stays as is!!!
