endless winter

The Topamax isn't helping yet, so my doctor has increased my dosage. The pain in my neck, shoulders, and upper back, combined with my daily migraines, is so bad that I'm on vicodin (sp?) every day now. All I do is sit in the house with the shades drawn (the light hurts my eyes), desperately wanting relief from the endless waves of pain, aching for a baby to hold, longing for my mom.

I wish spring would come, in the worst way.

Actually, Vicki, you just DID do something--you've no idea how much just knowing someone out there cares about me helps!! Thank you!
