I don't wanna fall to pieces!

Well - I'm not in France :'(
Can't believe that I am here sat at home on my own missing out because of my stupid illnesses, it's really go me down - I haven't cried so much in a long time - and I cry a LOT!!

I had a terrible night last night - couldn't sleep had stupid jerks in my legs and pains in my stomach - I'm sure my IBS has never been this bad before! I got to thinking about my different illnesses - and I realised I have 5 now! Or 4 and a possibility :(

My Fibromyalgia - no wonder they call it the silent disease as everyone says how well I look etc when i'm actually feeling like a ten tonne truck has hit me several times, I get aches and pains, and am soooo tired that no-one could understand it's like permanent jet lag :( Then theres the bit where it could actually be shutting down my organs over time - great huh?

Next is my IBS which I have had for around 8 years now, which they are saying could of been an underlying indication of my Fibro (yeah thanks) but I haven't had a bad a flare up as this in a long long time ;(

My high anxiety is next on the list - which apparently is also made worse by the Fibro - I also have bad panic attacks these days :( and when I get stressed I have a nervous twitch!

Last on the list is my antibody count is too high, so instead of fighting off the bad cells IE when a cold infection enters my system - they are attacking all my good cells, so I don't really have an immune system which is why I'm always getting colds and stomach bugs!

All these symptoms all go round in a circle as when I get stressed it makes my Fibro worse but then when my Fibro is bad I can't sleep I get stressed and my OCD comes to the forefront more!

Also now I am being tested for Polycystic ovaries :( I had some tests and they came back slightly high so now I have to have an ultrasound on my stomach :(

Sometimes I lie awake at night not being able to sleep and I wonder where its going to end, will the symptoms get worse - my consultant at the hosp has released me as they can't give me anymore treatment until they do get worse BUT I DON'T WANT THEM TOO!!
I lie awake thinking what have I done to deserve this, am I being punished in some way? Then I feel really bad as there are people out there with far worse things than i have .. but it's stopping me doing everything I love - i just wish i could go back to a couple of years ago and be "normal" again .. I feel like I'm falling to pieces both mentally and physically:(

Didn't get to go to NeverNeverLand

Well I didn't get to go to Metallica :'( As I wasn't very well .. had to have yet another day off work today - and went to the docs, he says it's just my condition and a bad flare up of my IBS :'( Am in quite a lot of pain at the moment - given me some new tablets so we'll see - I'm rattling!

France 2morro - hope I feel better :'( Won't be much fun for me or the boy's if I feel like this .. will hopefully add some pics when I get back .. am already feeling a bit uneasy about packing and going 2morro - what with my ocd I find it really hard some days! Trying to remain calm though and hopefully I'll get some sleep tonight - please please please!

My first blog!

I've been a secret reader of some peoples blogs for a while now, spesh loving the fashion ones like what I wore today etc ....

Hopefully I might do a few days myself as I like the idea of doing that .. not everyday though - as I have Fibromyalgia and so somedays there would just be shots of me lazing around in my pj's!!

I mainly started this blog as it is now 5 months till my wedding day and it will be nice to keep record of things and be able to look back on how I felt and what I was doing.

Today I phoned the Bridal Rooms where i have ordered my shoes from - they said they left me a voicemail saying they were here, but I deffo haven't received it - hmmmm Anyway hopefully I'll be able to go on Thurs after work and try my lovely shoes on :D
http://http://www.rainbowclub.co.uk/collection.htm?brand=Else&productID=4&Accessories=
They are the shoes I am hopefully having - after I check they fit of course! They are called Royale Else (Well it had to be done what with my name (at the mo :( ) being Else!!)


Also today some of my craft supplies have arrived to make my table numbers and placecards - got v excited (oh dear) My stationary should be on it's way now 2 and I go to pick up my wedding ring on Friday :)

I'm having a Edwardian style dress by Ronald Joyce with lots of lace and bling :) I won't post a pic of that though as I don't want anyone to see it yet :).
I had my hair trial last Thursday and I do like it but it doesn't feel quite right as my hair is shoulder length and I have been trying to grow it for about a year .. however it hasn't been to successful .. And when it's curly it's even shorter:





So now I'm thinking of buying hair extensions .. I have seen these that I like:

  • Vintage style long sparkly earrings
  • Evening invites
  • Table name holders
  • Mirrors for centre pieces
