I could really use some cheering up and a prayer or two

Ya ever get down at the bottom of the hill and seem likes it just keep rolling crap right on down on top of you and you feel like your going to drown?

I am such a horrible mood. My coop just got devistated (haven't heard anything yet from animal contorl) before that I got sold sick chickens who didn't make it. I'm gaining weight like 2lbs a day and my doctor won't don a darn thing about it. I'm grown out of all my clothes so going out in public is like a embarassing thing. no support really at home I can't do anything with my kids because it hurts so much to move and extremelyhad to breathe I try to excercise eat right drink plenty of water yet to no avail I still gain weight everyone makes it seem likes it my fault. All i get is " I know how you feel" Why do people say that. the only one who knows is me, because no one else is me. um thanks for listening.

are you really gaining 2 pounds a day? Any idea why? Sounds like I'd be finding another doctor.

I'm hate that things are so tough for you right now. It must be awful to feel a loss of control and lack of support from those you love. I hope that you take the time to take care of yourself and that you find a new doctor. If you're not sure where to go, at least ask your current doctor for a referal to an endocrinologist.

It varies day by day. I am almost 20lbs heavier than I was a couple of weeks ago. It's crazy I over exxagerate sometimes. The thing about finding a new doc is I'm on medicaid and not alot of good doctors around my area take it. I have had 3 diff docs in the last year and none of them would help me. they think I am there for narcotics. Wich they don't even work on me. I tell them that over and over and all they say is "well we don't know whats wrong with you, but you can't have any pain killers" I've gotten in their face and told them I don't want painkillers. My family has a history of addiction and I don't want any part in that.

Ask for a referral to a specialist. That much weight gain almost has to be water. Are you on steroids, that will do it.

I spent the last year like you. So frustrating and I also hate pills!!!!! Like you pain pills do nothing and my mother instilled a fear of addiction into me. I finally ended up at a "pain clinic" and got the "we do not prescribe drugs if you want them go somewhere else lecture". I am still ticked off about it and will not be going back. I did get started on Lyrica. It has helped at least better then anything else.

I'm no doctor, but that rapid of a gain definitely signals something wrong. Sometimes you have to get "in your face" with doctors. It's your body and you know when something is not right. Be persistent. This needs to be looked into.

Praying you get some good care and get to the bottom of this.
