Hugs Please

[Scribbler]

I had my exercise stress test today - and I'm pretty devestated - they are now saying that I have Angina I'm still coming to terms with my Fibro - and now this

I'll get my  head on in a day or so - but until then - hugs please

Oh Scribbler, what a thing to happen! I can't do any more than bake you a cyber cake, send you a slice with a nice cup of tea and add a great big old Fibro Fighting

Don't go all silent on us will you mate? Keep the jibber jabber going (posting on here in other words!) and we'll see you through it, okay?

Joo x

The timing is crap..... but with my nursey head on.... ok it's not nice but it's not as painful as the fibro. You live with the worst thing..... any symptoms of angina will have to be treated with meds but if you can start to live with Fibro and have accepted the restrictions that it has on you, angina should be easy.
You may find that when the angina is treated you may even feel better.
Jaqui, YOU ARE Bombproof! Just keep reminding yourself of that.
I'm sending you hugs, you can have as many as you like cos they are floating their way to you.
Keep faking it ..... you will make it.

Thanks Joo and Buffy - much appreciated.

I think that the worst of it was that I had the exercise stress test (only up to Stage 3, whatever Stage 3 is ) My back and legs were killing me and the nurse (almost 6') was telling me to take bigger strides (I'm 5' - well 4' 11 and 3/4 ) The consultant stopped the test  and said "You've got Angina - see your GP in 2 weeks, when he's got the result" End of consultation . It was only because I seemed upset after I'd got dressed that another nurse gave me a booklet and told me to see my GP at the end of the week.

I've got the booklet and I'm a bit scared and I can't find a forum to find out more from 'real' people. This is why this forum is so great - you can ask questions that no-one else thinks is silly .

When I look back over the past few months I can see now that some of my Angie pains have been around a while. (Arthur Arthritis, Freddie Fibro and now Angie Angina )
I know most of my Fibro pain - including that Chroy------- the one with the pain in the sternum But I juust need to suss out the Angie ones from the Freddie ones

Still grabbing them hugs by the armful - Thanks

 Sounds like you've got a lot to think about there Scribbs so just reduce the thoughts if you can, work out what you do in life that makes it all worthwhile - right down to the little incy wincey parts - and just relax into the rest of your life . Like the Buff and you before her said, fake it till you make it. I like that a lot!

Take care, thinking of you and sending even more of those floaty things that feel good!!!

Lots and lots of hugs from me too, what a shock it must of been hearing that news, will take a while coming to terms with it then I am sure you can live along side it as you do with the fibro.

More Hugs

A big hug from me Scribbler, my mum had Angina, she told the doctor it felt like a dog sitting on her chest, the doctor asked her what sort of dog and she said an alsation. (true story).

You must be fed up Fibro is bad enough to cope with let alond angina, keep your chin up gel.

Scribbs, you've been in my thoughts all week, I've just been nowhere near a pc when you've been there and then you've gone again when the technology is available.
You know what I mean. I hope
I hope you are feeling better, I like the names... Arthur, Freddie and Angie.... make them friends with you and each other and you can all live happily together, they'll be days when you are fed up with one or all of them but you will get through, I have big faith in you.
Hugs incase you could use them, ( I always can do with one....they is nice... lol )
