Text of the page (random words):
e is the skin extensibility tissue fragility and the joint hypermobility i suffer from the joint hyper mobility now this is the most common form and thankfully for me that is if i have this type i can t have the tissue type which shortens your life span i am glad i am not that special there is no cure and there is no drug that can stop it cure it or delay it you are born with it and it is genetic one of your parents has it or i found it can skip a generation so one of your grand parents could have it i also believe there are different severities i can no longer fit into a box i used to but not any more what to look for i am going by personal experience and i am very hyper mobile so please note i can not stretch my skin like some can i was always the kid that could pull her fingers out of their sockets still can and i could bend more than most children i could never break a bone no matter how much the bullies tried to shoe hunting was horrible for me and my mother because my joints always felt like they were bruised i was weaker than most hard time playing any sports not that i cared to teenage years my feet would feel like burning after walking a fair distance i thought that was normal i could not lift myself up to get into a window frequently sprained my hands fingers ankles i would dislocate my jaw when going to the dentist i took longer than most to heal and i do bruise easily teeth horrible why the body does not produce collagen helps harden teeth which is the binding agent and taking collagen does not work because the body can t process it pain is the huge issue and can t do most exercises no weight bearing will dislocate your joints no biking running lifting or anything repetitive this creates more scar tissue which creates more pain the only exercise is gentle swimming and gentle walking but no marathons pain how to describe this feeling well it increases with age i am feeling so warm and cozy ok back to the pain it is constant and attacks every joint and i mean every jaw hips knees elbows fingers toes and it feels like a constant abscess tooth ache there can be sudden burst of sharp pain anywhere in the joint too what to do finding a doctor who knows is key and one of the most difficult research and find out which specialist is near you a geneticist can help too but also remember that most feel it is a child illness and forget these children grow up and still have it and it gets worse this has been my main struggle a good doctor who listens and knows about the disease and will not try to tell you that you need anti depressants that is when i picture the dr being smacked in the mouth with my fist go to the arthritis society as they are aware of this disease and can give you insight on what to do and not to do physiotherapy can help teach you some non evasive exercises to do pain medicine helps i know one should take herbal and all that and i do and the naturalpath really helped but pain medicine is the only thing that can keep me functioning do i like taking it nope but enough already with mind over matter bullshit the pain is severe and if you have it 24 7 where you can t even open a jar haven t for years due to sharp pains telling you to stop take the medicine i am on cymbalta which took the pain off my feet no more sharp glass walking feeling i am on tylenol 3 i don t want to be on this but i have tried many other ways i need to work thankfully desk job and i need to live not exist find out which medicine works for you i feel it constantly keeps the nerve endings on high pain alert hence why cymbalta and other type of medicines for depression may work for pain don t let the dr prescribe medicine thinking you are depressed if he doesn t tell him he is an ass and walk out proudly i did felt great like tony the tiger the best medicine fun the bright side approach the power of laughter and happiness truly helps this is often what gets me through a positive outlook helps and keeps me persisting in not stopping persistence is key and a positive outlook is key i love beautiful things and surround myself with that i love great films i love crafting i love nature and animals and family and friends don t stop living and dance just not wild like i love to i knocked out my hip once doing that i wish there is more i could offer a great doctor pain medicine for my hypermobility and don t over extend your joints i had no idea when i was young so i lifted worked hard sawmill and thought everyone had this pain i negated it don t persist tell dr s who don t listen to screw off and find one who can send you to the right places never give up never surrender posted by birgit at 10 20 2014 54 comments sunday october 19 2014 christmas balls whimsy stamps anything goes fairytale stampers

which if i had been checking all of my comments i would have noticed long before now the lovely denise hammond from yes virginia there is life after retirement nominated me and that was so sweet i have nominated others before so to be truthful i won t nominate anyone but i still think all my blogger friends are lovely even the men and hope no one is offended now 7 things you do not know about me i am i think an open book so i often don t have a filter which i should develop one day but then that wouldn t be me so here we go 1 when ninja alex alex j cavanaugh wrote his a to z challenge he would pick a year and ask what occurred that year to make it momentous lack of a better word poor alex seemed to pick years where i had bad things happen and he responded by saying i m sorry i felt so bad for him but he finally did hit a year where it was a good year we all have years like that i am sure 2 i love animals all kinds well except mosquitos but they are insects so they can be blotted out of this world there are other insects in the food chain that can take their place animals give so much and we take from them needlessly and often if i ever find someone who harms an animal they better watch out when i was little i was witness to a racoon being repeatedly thrown in the water by an adult i was angry and tried to stop that man i will never forget that 3 i wish i could help the people i see more my friends and my family especially my mom i do what i can but i don t like to see anyone hurt my mom doesn t deserve dementia who does as for my clients who deal with collection agents collection agencies and agents can be so nasty and there is no reason for it except to spread fear 4 i love dancing with the stars love it yes they get people who are no longer stars of any note but i don t care it is fun and i get to see dancing ballroom dancing i have watched so you think you can dance but often it is contemporary dance and they do flips and kicks and raise the chick in the air i want the tango argentine to be precise the other makes me think they all will have whiplash i miss the musicals of fred astaire and gene kelly the tap dancing of the nicholas brothers you have to youtube those 2 brothers amazing 5 when i was young i wanted to see the voulez vous abba tour so bad you know those hip dudes and gals in those ultra blue onesie suits that made them feel hip instead of freaky swedish people thinking they are hip well you know what i mean hmmmmm i think i found my halloween costume anyway my mom said no there will be drugs there i stared blankly at her and said mommy it s abba really it s abba they re swedish and married to each other at that time anyway the worst i might find is herbal tea my brother got to see the who but i wasn t allowed to see abba 6 you may know a little about my mom but i also love my dad daddy died back in 1988 and i wish he would be here but he would be 101 yrs old he was 51 when i was born we had a rocky road when i was a teenager he didn t know how to deal with a teenaged girl who is similar to him he was in his 60 s at that time he was a good man who grew up really poor up north he was chased by wolves and dealt with bears he was a lumberman who worked in algonquin park in the 1930 s he fought for the canadians in ww2 and was wounded in the last days of the war he was a man you may not have agreed with but you could not help but respect him i will never forget going from the funeral parlour to the cemetery and the people were lined up outside their homes in his honour 7 i like to have fun i like to be silly life s too serious so why not be nutty this can often keep me sane i love playing games i even had had mind you the gilligan s island game once yes i have fallen in a fountain in toronto well pushed in actually my friend tried to help me out and he fell in too aka i took his hand and pulled him in i decided to dance in the fountain i felt like anita ekberg without the double f ta ta s ok so there is a little more about little ole moi now i dare any of you to dance in some fountain or even your shower i dare ya posted by birgit at 10 15 2014 28 comments sunday october 5 2014 a card for all of
