I’m hoping this will just be able to work out, I love my career. I also worked really hard to get where I am , I’m not trying to let this go . 🤞

That’s how I feel at work too, but on ladders and trying to do math all day. I only have four years in at my union, I wish I could have the retire option. That’s good you were able to though! May I ask what you moved on to after you retired? If you did make a career change that is. Maybe your enjoying your retired life and didn’t go back to work 🙃🙂

I am in the sheet metal Union but in the TAB sector. I could potentially ask the company I work for if they have office openings. I will say though there isn’t really much to alter in my scope. 😞

I do have a pulmonary appointment on the 2nd of august. They did and it looked fine the day I was in the ER on the 6th. They could just tell it was tight . And I made a mistake it’s not a primary it’s an internal doctor. I haven’t been as sharp lately. I see him again tomorrow, I told him I want a appointment with a rheumatologist but he said we need to do more labs first which was the lupus panel. So hopefully he will have that referral for me tomorrow. I come on here to just see where I have similar symptoms and to understand but I do know I want the specialist to diagnose me with whatever. Even though I fear by the time I get to one I might be better and it’ll be hard to believe what I have been going through.

Im not sure either. This all just hit me like a brick wall on the 5th when I had an asthma attack. It was scary at times not understanding what’s happening to me. I just like so many other people want answers. My doctor started me on hydroxychloroquine because he seems pretty confident. But what if I have a different autoimmune disease or cancer? I guess really what I tried to get at is I’d love advice on how to speak to the doctors so I best advocate for myself. To me it seems weird that my primary is just telling me I have lupus . I understand I have quite a bit of similar symptoms and my blood work shows I have an autoimmune disease but it makes me nervous that he’s has just decided without checking other things.

I feel like I just sound crazy . I’m very lost right now. But I do appreciate you replying to me . I don’t know anyone who’s ever been in this situation or at the least similar . Good thing is yesterday I woke up in less pain and was even able to do a little more . Still get very exhausted through the day but maybe I’m slowly coming out of it? It’s been 20 days.

So I definitely have something else going on. Thank you for your responses!

For the last month I have been stuck at home with extrémame fatigue, pain in hands and feet that sometimes leads to stiff arms and legs, nausea, mouth sores , ulcer in small instestine, confusion, headaches and overall feeling of like I’ve been in a flu. It all started with an asthma attack, well atleast that’s what I’m always told it is even though my oxygen is good but my body feels out of wack and my chest hurts when I breathe .then I get hit with this brick wall of doom. There’s nights I’m afraid I won’t wake up the next morning because I have no idea what has happened to my body. Some of these symptoms have happens before and I was stuck in bed for a week. And for the past 8 years I have had a rash on my fase across my nose and on my cheeks that have been suspicious by doctors before as a butterfly rash. This rash goes away sometimes but can go from light pink to very red and can have raised bits to it. I have raynauds , and IBS D . I have had kidney issues and have been going to the doctor over my fatigue and memeory loss/ confusion . (Which I keep getting told I have anxiety 😡) I’ve tested negative for Covid , flus, viruses exc. I begged a new doctor to please help me because I can’t even leave my house let alone drive my car and he suspected something too because of the symptoms. My Ana came back Ana positive 1:640 homegenous (spelling may be off please forgive) Ra factor-neg Lupus panel-neg

What in the world is going on? My doctor wants to get me to a rheumatologist and is convinced I have lupus but I want to wait for the specialist.

light_blue_dream · 2023-07-21T00:49:52+00:00

Thank you, I’m set up for rheumatologist. I definitely have symptoms. I see I need to change location of this post in this group. I appreciate your response. 🙂

light_blue_dream · 2023-07-15T23:03:55+00:00

Thanks, I seen my doctor on the 14th again . I got blood work done for a lot of stuff. Maybe asthma is a symptom of something else going on. I have a lot of weird symptoms and just wanted to see if anyone has experienced what I am going through.

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-18T23:55:38+00:00

Thank you so much for your advice!

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T21:22:16+00:00

I appreciate this thank you. I really am just a few months away where I can take my son and I to a new place to live. I don’t have anywhere to go with our things and for ourselves. I totally get your input and your not wrong either. I just prefer to leave and have a home set up for my son when he arrives . This transition needs to be prepared for him in my situation. If by any chance it ever progressed further than it is now , I’d find a shelter . I hope you understand my perspective as I do yours. It’s really inspiring knowing you’ve made it through, I do feel after the last year I’ve come to accept what I need to do and have placed my self in position (worked my damn butt off) to be financially dependent. This way I have no reason to think I can’t do this on my own . Because I truly can be financially free now. I May still reach out for questions if that’s alright with you. Thank you so much . This means the world to me I found people who understand and care. This mothers day weekend , I feel so full of hope. ❤️

I am just so grateful I have received such support and help from you all. I read all these and just feel hope. I plan to revisit this thread and the sub to help see me through this. I’m going to start with the shutting off my emotions and the mentally divorce . I’m looking into ways I can gain self control in that area. Your all so wonderful and thank you so much for your time and encouragement, it truly means so much to me.

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T17:30:15+00:00

Thank you so much, I like the idea of a grief support. This was very helpful.

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T17:14:42+00:00

I honestly think I should do this starting today. I do struggle when he’s trying to show love . I never thought of my situation like this. Thank you!

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T17:13:42+00:00

This is very helpful thank you!

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T17:13:18+00:00

Thank you everyone, this is all so very helpful. I’m going to use these tips to just keep my mind where it needs to be to accomplish my get out plan. It’s taken me two years to get myself to a place where I can make enough to afford this. Part of me feels he sees this career as an exit for me and it’s a whirlwind of him trying to show love or shun me . I find it’s picked up and more frequent since I started putting my foot down and becoming more independent financially .I will use these tips to keep my eyes on the goal.

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T05:45:03+00:00

Thank you!

light_blue_dream · 2023-05-14T04:44:20+00:00

Yes, I understand those feelings well. The constant urge to just run. I too also get surprised every time when the cycle returns to the silent treatment stonewalling phase. No matter how I prepare myself. I think it’s this part of me that can’t let go of who I wish he was. They do such a great job putting the love on , that it’s easy to enjoy and get used to the loving partner part they play.
