Thanks, Diane.

What you’re saying makes sense. Too busy to get sick. The body and the mind work in strange ways. And now it’s my turn, I guess. Well, at least the nodule is benign and it’s not the big C, yet.

Hugs to you as well.
Barbra.

I think I’ll sit down and eat until I explode.

I have actually always been healthy, no flu or even colds for me. I swung within a few pounds of my ideal weight and my only vice was smoking. For the last 7 years I nursed my husband, with the aid of Hospice for the last year, through his cancer. He passed away last November. Since then I have developed migraines, a prolapsed bladder, had a fall and hurt my arm [which still aches like a sore tooth most every day], found a small goiter [benign] and was told I have Graves’.
I seem to be coming apart at the seams. It’s good that all this didn’t happen earlier because I needed my energy for my husband. But what do I do now?
I’m just a bit discouraged and overwhelmed today.

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words [and for the spell check].
I’m not feeling too bad today, just taking an extra step here and there. I’m not dizzy, just leaning a bit. Makes me wonder why I’m taking high blood pressure medication. And why am I so darn hungry all the time? I’ve been eating everything that can’t get away fast enough.
I’ll give my doctor one last shot at this at the next appointment and see what and who his recommendation is.
And, Boomer, from what I can see you are not the only knight in this kingdom vying for time on the “throne”.

Hugs.
Barbra.
