Hey everyone
I just got back from the drs where he was really pleased that there is no wheezing and no problems breathing. But he did my depression score and it is 925 and he put me on a depression medication and I have acid reflux so he put me on meds for that and my arthiritis which is flaired up nicely so he put me on meds for that and wants me to have a mamogram and an upper gi plus I have to go see a obgyn for my cervix which has white spots on it and he said that it could be pre cancourous and wants it checked out.
But he said we are gonna wait to work on the weight issues as it could be in part depression related. I will also be seeing a psychologist next week And life goes on. _________________

Yeah, Leona, I hope you got a lollypop for all that. I know I won't leave the bank drive-through without one!
good news about the lungs.....but it's a bitch getting old! Ha Ha, I know all about this...it's always something. Be happy that the old lungs are looking good. as for everything else, just consider it like a major tune up on the car!
Oh, and I'm glad to hear that you are going to see a doctor about your feelings of depression. We try hard here to make you feel better , but better to go to a pro. We want you back to being our 100% Leona.

Alleghany, Thank you I can use all the good thoughts I can get.
Kay, My dr doesn't give lolipops instead he gives stickers and he gave me scooby I love scooby. I love mydr too. He is so thourough and he actually listens to me when I talk.
Gentle Breeze, Yes my sister the creator has made things for a reason and I for one embrace them. I keep them close to me always. Thank you for your prayers they are much needed and most comforting. I pray for you also my native sister.
Kris, I had to do something. When I wake up in the middle of the night crying that isn't me so It was time to take some definate steps. I want to be well for me. Not for my kids but for me.
Pamela, I know you all have tried so hard to help me feel more me but nothing was working. And I knew it was time for me to get some help professionally even though it scares the bejesus out of me. I will keep all posted to my progress and hopefully in no time I will be back to my old self. I don't like this one much she is to negative and unhappy.
Londa, I love that song always have thank you. I am so pleased to be someones sunshine.

Now, just wait until I go back to the doctor....I want a sticker too and not in the butt..... sorry just got to thinking about the look on his face if I confronted him with that one... I wonder what he is always writing down on my chart....maybe something like "she ain't right"

You should of seen my dr's face when I went rooby. I love rooby. He is one of my favorite cartoon characters next to taz, He had the biggest smile bet that he thinks I am a nut.
You make sure your dr knows that lolipops have gone out of fashion and stickers (fuzzyones) are in. LOL _________________

Leona, that is good news that you have no wheezing and no problems breathing.
The only cartoon characters I remember are Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd..
I only got the needle stick, some meds but no stickies
A powerful statement you made and a positive one, " I want to be well for me." Keep that thought,
You are in my prayers,
