update on why ive been gone so long

[Home2Strays]

hey guys, been gone awhile but lurking through here when i get the chance… daizey is doing decent, shes still got horrible lungs and is getting over another bout of pnuemonia and is quite happy in the fact she just sprayed the living room carpet with diarrhea  :-\  but otherwise fine… tinker is still fabulous in all her bichon-y glory and i parade her around all the time and other people w bichons are quite jealous that she was free! For breast cancer awareness month me and the groomer at work gave her pink polka dots and she felt very sexy after that… ( you can see all my kids pics on http://www.myspace.com/kaceycrystal ) currently I am awaiting news as to whether I have lupus, rheumatoid arthitis, or fibromyalgia… or a combination… just hate the wait you know? feel like my lifes been on hold and im only 21… my friends eng. bulldog brutus passed away the other night from congestive heart failure, he was only 9 but had had a bout with cancer and taken half his jaw off when he was 3 and had liver problems too so he was sent over the bridge. and my friend i work with her brother was in a car accident not wearing a seat belt, he was thrown and died in surgery, he was only 20 and their parents were out of state so they just had his funeral. But other than that things are calming down around here and i can start putting my 2 cents in again and asking questions!

Should be hearing from doctor soon, i hope. been having a bit of what im terming a flareup right now… started out last week being really tired and achy to shoulder pain and now my back is pretty excruciating- worked overtime this week because the boston rescue lady teamed up with animal services on a raid and took in 25 bostons that shes boarding at the clinic, they all pooped/peed in thier cages and danced in it( bath time- thier first and they all freaked out) and all needed exams heartworm tests fecals and vaccines and to be fed watered and walked sooo needless to say that since im the only one that doesnt have a family and i like money i volunteered to stay late even though i was a bit painful- doing all that with 25 dogs lifting and cleaning and such has taken a toll… online to try and find some solutions or will be heading to after hours in a few if it doesn’t let up. should have results monday i would think… anyone know anything i can do??? or what someone they know has done???

Ok, so got results in and saw doc yesterday. I tested negative for lupus, my rheumatoid factors- some numbers were off so will recheck that in 3 months, It also came back that I am apparently getting over Mono ( guessing got it from the gym since dont have time for a guy for about 3 yrs. now!) so we are going with fibromyalgia due to symptoms and my pain points. I’m glad weve kind of figured out whats wrong but kind of scared you know? I mean this is lifelong… flareups forever… guess ill do more yoga and pilates during those times…
