I'm so glad I could be of some help to you. It does sound like what's going on with you might be spine-related. Have you made that appointment yet? Have you ever had physical therapy to help with your spine issues?
And you know, I totally understand that you make your kids go to the doctor at the drop of a hat, but that you don't do the same for yourself. My dad was like that. I swear, if we kids had a hangnail we'd get shipped off to the doctor, but when he, later on in life, had some more serious symptoms, he ignored them and didn't go.
Sadly, we lost him at age 60, to emphysema and cancer. We found out he was that sick only one week before he died. It always hurts to lose a parent, but we lost him far sooner than we should have, which makes it even more painful.
You are important, Lee. Let's try to get your needs and priorities up a little higher on the to-do list. Give that Champix a try again and see how it goes. Would you?
I love this saying from Dr. Phil:
"The best way to take care of your kids is to take care of their mother."
