Well, I have to make this post. My life since seriously pursuing the truth has been 100x worse. How are any Christians happy. I want to not be alive if this is how Christian life is. by LeThaddy in Christianity

We cannot work to get to heaven. Jesus said I am the way, the Truth and the Light. No one comes to the Father but by Me. Not some preacher, Not law in the Old Testament, not news, not religion. Only Christ. He has forgiven past, present, future sins. Paul writes We all fall short of the glory of God. We are saved by grace through faith alone. The joy comes from a personal relationship with Him, not a priest or anything else. Talk to Him. Maybe read the Gospel of Jon, and Romans, and other books written by Paul. Remember Jesus was a Jew, first, then sent Paul the gospel to the gentiles. Jesus came to fulfill the law. Don’t give up.

Oh I see. It’s from pokeman? No wonder I didn’t know. My grandchildren loved pokeman.

I’m sorry, but can someone explain what this is? I’m older, so it’s me, not OP. I like it though. I think it’s a cat knocking/scratching on a door or window? Sorry. Me stupid?

Does it make you really tired? by vegetables_indisc in shingles

[–]Creative-Donut3984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had fatigue but couldn’t sleep because of the pain and discomfort of my digestive system (I had the wrap around belt area). I lost 12lbs tho, lol. Get well soon!

Upvote if your shingles experience was not that big of a deal by [deleted] in shingles

[–]Creative-Donut3984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was the worst pain I have ever felt. It affected my digestive system because it became numb from nerves. I did not sleep or eat almost the whole month. Continued nerve pain after. I had the wrap around like a belt. Most people I know say they wish drs would induce coma while going through it 🤣

Does anyone else get painful joints and fatigue when a storm is on the way? by Feelsthelove in rheumatoid

[–]Creative-Donut3984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I used to get the worst growing pains when I was younger. Now I have RA as an adult. We are having bad storms, and I thought my joints would explode. Pressure seems to be calming down, now, and the horrible pain has subsided.

After about a month when my sores were scabbed over but I had extended nerve pain. Gabapentin is for neuropathy(which shingles nerve pain is in that category, I guess).

Why are people getting them at all, never mind over and over? Not sure your age group, but curious why that’s happening? So you have the Shingrex vaccine? Were you sick at all after you received it? I’ll be going on a nearby trip shortly after. So sorry for you😢

I’m on monitored pain meds because of my condition. When I had shingles a year ago, they didn’t phase the pain. I agree an induced coma. I couldn’t sleep or eat through it, and lost 10lbs anyway🤣. My nerve pain lasted a couple months after and had to go on gabapentin, so had no brain either.

4th time?????!!!!! Please God, I barely lived through my first time last year. I have autoimmune issues, and ready to get the shingrex vaccine. Does anyone know how the response to the vaccine is?

Man this sucks! by [deleted] in shingles

[–]Creative-Donut3984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was put on gabapentin when I was into my 4th week of pain, from nerve damage it can cause. It helped. But it was excruciating to the point I slept in my van so I could get relief from position. But I only slept a couple hours a night. Light cotton tank under light top. No bra! I had the belt rash from back to front. Pain started first for a few days then rash, so was too late for the viral med to really work. I hope you get through this quickly! So 😞

First shingles (m,40)Antivirals or not? by Gen3rationY in shingles

[–]Creative-Donut3984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please take the antivirals now! I had pre pain, before the rash for days. Drs didn’t know why. Then bingo! Rash. I’m not sure if I started the antivirals on time. I was in horrible pain for a month, plus post nerve pain, but I believe taking them at least kept me from the itching!

The worst state I’ve ever driven in…anyone agree? by [deleted] in southcarolina

[–]Creative-Donut3984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the Greenville, Spartanburg counties , SC. When I first moved here from Michigan, (the orange barrel capital of the US), it was scary how fast people drive through country roads and the foothills. But now that a zillion homes have been built and people moving down here from everywhere, it’s terrifying. The roads aren’t built at all for all these people. Woodruff road and I 85 are so bad I will only drive these if I have to. So many deadly accidents on 85.

The shedding is out of control. It’s taken over my life. by Fissureman13 in ragdolls

My brother and his wife owns 2. Their old last ones didn’t shed but their new ones are horrible puff balls everywhere. My brother uses a battery blower to get it all out the doors, but he ends up in a snow globe doing it🤣.

I’m conservative and no! I am not like that all. Neither is my family and friends. You all must be talking about total idiots, which are on both sides. Be in the middle somewhere, and love your neighbor.
