Thank you for your input. I tried some of the support groups online and found them depressing.This site seems to be more supportive,informative and compassionate. I have an appointment with StMary’s Psiosiatry (sp) on May third.My PCP thinks maybe MS, the neurologist suggested Sjogren’s.
Before I got sick two years ago I was able to treat my pain with Two Old Goats Essential Oils Lotion and I was good to go. I never had insomnia.
O.K. I have a big goal planned for today I have my first dental appointment in over six years. I have spent to much time in and out of the hospital and then two years of waiting to feel better it’s time to go forward. Drinking more water is always a good idea, not stupid.

@daliea Yay! You have a goal and recognize that its time to go forward. HUGE step. I love that. And self care is a perfect goal. I learned in rehab that self care is not selfish and we must value ourselves even if we feel poor.

I'm so glad you found Connect since finding other sites depressing. Yes, we are a supportive community that takes pride in encouragement, compassion and correct information. We are not doctors, but do our best to provide information based on our own experiences and medical accuracy. Connect is well moderated and held to a higher standard. I'm happy and thankful you noticed.

After 2 years it sounds like you are being proactive and moving in the right direction by ruling out other possible causes to your conditions. I think that is awesome!! Will you keep me posted on your progress thereafter the May 3rd appointment? Good luck at the dentist. Cheers to progress...with a glass of water of course. 🥂
