I'm not dead.... Mostly?

Postby AlmySidaKay » Thu Jan 29, 2015 7:44 am

Ive spent most of the last several months being in so much pain and feeling so sick I couldn't do much of anything. Turns out it is inflammatory arthritis, fibromyalgia, and a rather large ovarian cyst to top off the fun. I'm finally on the road to pain management at least now. I can't work anymore so I have found myself with a lot of free time, so hopefully I will be more active again. I still have my resin bjds and I've picked up some random new vinyl playthings as well so I hope to start sharing again soon.

Welcome back :) Glad you've got a diagnosis and should be able to start managing your pain.

Good to hear from you. Take good care of yourself. A little doll therapy might help.

Goodness! You poor thing! *huggles carefully* I'm glad you're on the road to healing now. I agree with K2! It's definitely a good time for doll therapy.

Thanks everyone! I also have found sometimes taking videos has been easier than photos too lately because then I don't have to carry and set everything up as much. :D

And then the new drug I was that was finally cutting through the pain I developed an allergic reaction to today. I just can't win. I'm going retaliate and post more doll photos.

It's good to see you here. I hope that you can find a solution to your pain that doesn't cause allergies.
