Pat, Oh great warrior friend...some of us have learned a valuable lesson this week as a result of your recent struggles with health concerns. You are so knowledgeable and experienced that when something comes up with you, most of us just assume you will have it tackled and fgured out, before the doctors even get the concern dx'd. So I expect some of us held back with questions or comments initially because we didn't want to insult your intelligence.
But of course we were forgetting that when many of us go through pain and anxiety, it's like you said, our brain goes out the door. We can't think straight. The pain makes it too emotional for us. So we will have to keep that thought in mind when listening to our buds here on the forum...that no matter our experience level or knowledge, we all need that helping hand once in awhile. We sometimes need someone to remind us of something we know but just haven't considered...pain pushes logic and reason out the window. So glad to hear you may now know why you have had some of the awful side effects experienced over the last couple of weeks. Keep us informed. Hugs, Melodie
