Re: I've learned to be quiet if I can

You know I love a good Red Stripe but I haven't touched alcohol since this all happened. My hubby says I'm a cheap date now. :P
I try not to tell him when I'm feeling bad. I think thats one of the problems he's having with all this because he took care of his mother until she passed and he keeps 'sick wife' at arms length not wanting to deal with that again. Like you, I don't blame him. That's why I'm glad for the women on this site. That there are people who understand what I'm going through. Let me tell you, I will take the numbness and soreness over GERD any day. I think eliminating the mystery of all this has been helpful. I don't stress when the numbness comes because I know what it is and that it will go away. The remaining mysteries that are eating me are when will I be myself again? If it's a year I want to hear a year and shoot for that.
And the GERD I just want to go away. I could even deal with it if it were for one week a month if I knew that was all. I have to know what I'm fighting.
sorry to harp on this. It gets old, even to me.
