Alive but not so well

I have been battling some sort of foot infection for nearly 4 weeks now. Just started my 3rd round of antibiotics, 4 doctor visits and 5 prescriptions later and I'm no better than I started 4 weeks ago. We are beginning to wonder about fibromyalgia. I am in so much pain off and on. My joints in my thumbs hurt so bad that it keeps me awake at night and I even take sleep meds. My poor foot has been swollen and very red for a month. Lots of bloodwork found nothing wrong, xrays said nothing was broken. So, tomorrow I'm being sent for a bone scan of my foot. He thinks it might be a bone infection. He also took even more blood todayy for further testing. I have had NO APPETITE and barely eating anything, but I'm gaining weight. I'm telling ya'll this is some scary stuff going on with me. I covet your prayers first and foremost. I am just very tired and frustrated at this point.

Good gracious girl!!! You are going through the fire. My sister has fibromyalgia and she really has a time with it. We will pray they find the cause of your pain and can give you something for it. Are you working? Please let us know how you do.......

I had dental surgery. I have had an impacted wisdom tooth that has needed to be out for 7 years. I am doing great and will return to work tomorrow.

Love you and praying for you!!!
