Lia I get dizzy spells if I stand up from sitting too quickly , You should probably tell a Dr if it happens too much though , I asked and it's a side effect of one of my meds (I forget which one) . It can happen if you have low blood pressure I beleive.

FlyingNy 09-01-2011 06:19 PM

Hmm...it does happen when I stand too fast, but sometimes randomly as well, or when I've been stood up a few minutes and it should have happened before then. I'm not on any meds, so it can't be those. I tend to get the shakes a lot, but usually when I am nervous or upset, sometimes though, I'm not sure of the trigger. Then there's these random shooting pains I get, through my stomach, head, sometimes ribs or arms and legs. It's really weird. Sorry, I should post this on first aid. But I've had these symptoms about a year or two now and nothing's happened to me yet, so...

Doikers 09-01-2011 06:22 PM

Being Dizzy can be low blood pressue Lia Hun but with all those other symptoms I urge you to visit your GP if at all possible.:S

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 06:27 PM

I get those too but my blood pressure is fine. Hmm. Does sound like low blood pressure.

And yeah, I was having a discussion with a friend she's fallen out with, clearly she was facebook snooping on him, so no sympathy really.

Doikers 09-01-2011 06:33 PM

*Hugs Sarah* Just ...OFF topic , did you draw that little Aloha Kitty on your avatar? It's really cute

SoMuchMore 09-01-2011 06:40 PM

*hugs wardies*

wow, 12 pages since yesterday... we certainly are moving along quickly in here :)

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 06:40 PM

I used a dress up game and edited the background and stuff out. The zombie one I used to have was one I drew but was a bit identifiable :p *hugs Mark*

FlyingNy 09-01-2011 06:51 PM

*Hugs Laura* How might you be this evening?

Mark, I tend to go with the 'I'm not dead yet so I'll be alright' approach. People tend just to make a massive fuss if you mention 'dizzy spells' and 'pains'. Someone told me I probably had bone cancer, and that was before they knew about the dizziness and shakes...

Every time I see something Hello Kitty now Sarah, I think of you :)

Doikers 09-01-2011 06:53 PM

*Hugs Laura* Yep it's been busy in here latley , how are you hun?

*Hugs Sarah*

*Hugs Laura*

SoMuchMore 09-01-2011 06:56 PM

*hugs lia* well its still morning here lol... but i'm alright-ish. Kind of stressed about restarting work in a week b/c i have so many training sessions to set up and whatnot. Its so ironic, putting someone with horrible social anxiety in charge of a section.

and lol i go with the same approach many times when it comes to physical health issues... probably not the best idea all the time. Maybe you should see your GP.. just to get some simple blood work done and have your blood pressure taken at least? think about it?

*hugs sarah and mark*

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 06:58 PM

*Hugs Laura* Yeah we've all been posting lots lol

*Hugs Lia* Yeah, most people IRL are like that with me too :p

*Hugs Mark*

SoMuchMore 09-01-2011 06:58 PM

*hugs mark* lol i got 2 hugs from you in ur last post - i feel so special - although one is meant for lia i think so *transfers extra hugs*

I'm alright - see last post to lia... just stressed. happy to be leaving my parents house in a few days though

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 07:03 PM

Sounds good Laura. *hugs*

Got a bit of a headache :(

Doikers 09-01-2011 07:07 PM

Ooops sorry Lia *Massive hug to make it Up*

*Hugs Laura* That is ironic ... I'm glad you will be getting your own space back hun :)

*Hugs Sarah Just Because*

FlyingNy 09-01-2011 07:20 PM

Sorry for what Mark? I didn't mean you, I just meant this person who told me I had cancer, I was like :o

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 07:21 PM

-shuffles into the ward still feeling quite tired and stops to look to see who all is here and waves at everyone, then continues to the couch and plops down on it-

misskitty112 09-01-2011 07:23 PM

*hugs ward*
I feel like the ward is moving so fast for someone with the attention span of a peanut, like me. haha.

Anywho, hi ya'll.

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 07:26 PM

*cuddles Kitty and Felicia*

The girl who deleted me from her friends list is under police caution (along with her family and a few of their friends) for harassing the friend I was speaking to and making threats towards his newborn baby, fiancee and her children. I certainly do not want people like that on my list!

MammaMia 09-01-2011 07:32 PM

*hugs all the wardies*

Ward's been moving fast today. Sorry for lack of individuals but I do care about you all & thinking of you. You'll get through these difficult times :) We all will.

I'm still feeling good. Got dentist tomorrow, dreading that ha. Trying to focus on the happier fact that my best friend is coming home tomorrow =)

Doikers 09-01-2011 07:32 PM

*Hugs Kitty*

*Hugs Lia*

*Hugs Felicia*

*Spot and hugs Helen and Sarah*

I've had to open my window my over set off my fire alarm....twice. :S

Doikers 09-01-2011 07:33 PM

Oh Helen I have the dentist for filling this month too , good luck with you appointment!

YES!!!! Not always black dots. But yes I get those. I usually try sit/lie down (depending where I am). If you keep having them, please see a doctor aout it.

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 07:35 PM

Hilo Felicia how you be? -waves sleepily-

-snuggles sarah- I be your friend. I wont delete you from my list.

I don't understand why I am so damn tired. It's getting ridiculous. Like I know I didn't get too much sleep last night, or the night before that, or the week before that. I got approximately the right amount of sleep I require in order to function. I would have just stayed sleeping this morning, but I woke up with an unhappy bladder and then couldn't go back to sleep. I know fatigue is a symptom of pregnancy, but I really don't get it. I know I lost one of my tubes, but I was never this exhausted the first go around. And you wouldn't think that losing one tube would change you that much, would you? And I am supposed to start school again tomorrow for spring semester...I'm just wondering how the hell I am going to be able to get through it when I am so tired. I just feel so drained. o.O And still not sure if I will be able to get my financial aid or not. They just told me to go to classes anyway until I find out, and if I don't get my financial aid, if they deny me, they said to "be prepared to withdraw". Aka be prepared to be homeless. I'm trying to look positively at it, telling myself they should approve me, but that guy's voice saying "it is possible that you can be denied" keeps playing through my head like a damned recording. Rawrs I just want to die so its all over. I just has no energy.

Good luck :) I don't have any fillings. Well I do but half of one because I broke my front tooth, well half of it & obviously had to have something there!!!

****, I'm missing dancing on ice!!! *puts telly on*

Doikers 09-01-2011 07:43 PM

*Hugs Kitty* I'm sure they woulden't make a pregnant woman homeless , that would be so un-ethical , I really can't see that happening.

Thanks Helen , I'm pretty nervous but if it has to be done it has to be done.

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 07:46 PM

-hugs mark- I agree that it would be unethical, but we use my financial aid to pay the bills, including rent. And if we cant afford rent, they will evict us..

*cuddles* I'd deffo explain you're nervous, they will be really gentle & everything. My Mum is very nervous & they're always really nice to her. I get nervous but try & hide it lol.

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 07:49 PM

*snuggles Ward* I'm so shocked at what people are like :(

FlyingNy 09-01-2011 07:50 PM

*Hugs Kitty* They shouldn't make anyone homeless, not if it's beyond their control that they can't work enough to get the money to keep their home.

*Hugs Helen* I've had them ages, but like I said, I feel alright, and I don't want to get anyone else involved in this. I'mglad you're still feeling happy :) I agree, we can all do this :)

*HUgs Felicia* This ward does move fast,and I have the same problem as you :) But other times it goes so slow I think everyone must have vanished off the face of the earth.

*Hugs Sarah* You're right, you don't need those people :) What's the matter?

*Hugs Mark* Keep hanging in there :)

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 07:55 PM

*cuddles Lia* the girl who deleted me wished cot death on my friends baby because she lost a court case she brought against them (for stealing his half of the business) and another person just ripped into another friend who's losing weight from obesity right now saying she'll never be healthy or pretty and to give up now. I really can't believe what some people will do for their own gain

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 08:00 PM

-hugs lia- I agree. But they do. They don't care about people. They care about whether they make money or not. And if someone can't pay their rent (or mortgage for that matter) they come in and evict that person (or family even). It's really sad, but that's what our world has come down to. As far as I am concerned, having shelter should not cost anything, period. It's a means of survival. Same goes with food and water and clothing. But our society has become so greedy they charge people for everything they can think of.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this tired feeling? My husband likes to tell me "just sleep". But the problem is, if I "just sleep", I would be sleeping all day and all night. I would never get out of bed. And I know that's not healthy. Well I wouldn't necessarily be sleeping because I can't really sleep anymore without my sleeping meds, but I would just lay in bed and not get out. My eyes aren't heavy or anything. It kind of feels like I have something really heavy laying on my chest. It doesn't hurt, but that's the best way I can explain the exhaustion I am feeling. If it is because I am pregnant, is there a way I can get rid of it, at least a little, so it's more bearable to do things during the day? Caffeine is good, but caffeine is bad during pregnancy. I was told during my last pregnancy that one cup of coffee should be fine, but one cup of coffee does not really help.

Doikers 09-01-2011 08:00 PM

Ohh Sarah people can be so awful to each other sometimes , you're better off without them hun ....*Hugs*

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 08:14 PM

I am. The first friend just invited me round for a brew and to meet their new baby. Squeee so cute :) *cuddles Mark*

Edit - I don't know Kitty, I have the same problem with my arthiritis but I've never found anything to help :(

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 08:16 PM

Oooooooooo babies <3

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 08:20 PM

I know, she's a really cute baby too, and apparently really well behaved and sleeps and yeah, so cute. Too young for children myself yet so I go around all like aww at everyone elses lol I'm so strange at times

Doikers 09-01-2011 08:20 PM

Awwww littleuns , My neice is growing so fast , they get big quick!

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 08:21 PM

Yeah they do. My fiance's cousin is so sweet, he's not a year old yet, and is fascinated by my glasses and the ball on my lip bar :p so sweet

OMG :| That's ****ing horrible!!!

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 08:29 PM

I love babies. I read something online once that said "You spend the first couple years trying to teach the child to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 16 years telling him (or her) to sit down and shut up." I don't know why I felt like sharing that but I thought it was funny. ^.^

Doikers 09-01-2011 08:31 PM

That is funny Kitty , I never thought I'd like babies until I met my little neice on her actual birthday

MammaMia 09-01-2011 08:31 PM

^ I've heard that one before Kitty, makes me giggle. I love babies too!!! I love all children really hehe. But particularly when they're young :) My cousin is growing up so fast. She's only 2 but very clever already :D

one_step_closer 09-01-2011 08:34 PM

None of my family have babies at the moment. I think i'd like a child of my own one day but i'm scared that my illnesses would mess up their life.

Doikers 09-01-2011 08:37 PM

I have the same nightmare about illness going around my head Lindsay *Hugs* First I have got to persude a woman (One in Particular) That we should have a family but thats far off.

MammaMia 09-01-2011 08:42 PM

Lindsay, I can imagine you're scared. My best friend has few mental illness but went on to have 3 children (as she sadly had a son who died & 5 miscarriages aswell) and so far they're doing well. So doesn't necessarily mean your children will have mental illnesses or be messed up by yours. *hugs lots*

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 08:43 PM

Lindsay I have the same issues *cuddles*

*snuggles Helen* Yeah, I'm in shock

Asanunu 09-01-2011 08:43 PM

I've been really tired as well. Hoarded away in my room, because I dont want to interact with anyone..

Gonna be really annoyed if all that damn spray my cousin is spraying leaks into my room -_- She knows I'm asthmatic, but doesn't seem to give a damn. At least it Outside of my room, otherwise I'd likely have some not-too-kind words..

Ehh...Just want to curl up and pass out again >.>

Some people are just ****ing cruel :/

Honestly, why does it seem like adults act so damn childish, and even that is sort of insulting to the children of our day and age.

I've never heard a child be this mean. At least they have some respect for common human dignity...

SparkleKitten 09-01-2011 08:47 PM

Hey Rhayven I'm Sarah *waves* Sorry your cousin is spraying things, is there anyone you can tell?

PsychoKitty2010 09-01-2011 08:50 PM

Yeah I can relate to that, Mark. I've never been completely comfortable around other peoples children. I just like looking at babies. Even my sisters kids were assholes to me when they were young. Like not in the cute way. They were evil. But I can't wait to be able to have my own child. If I am pregnant, I will be giving birth at the end of July or August sometime.

I hope I am pregnant. I really do. Thursday is a long time to wait. Can't I just get a universal remote and fast forward to Thursday? I promise I wouldn't abuse it like Adam Sandler did in the movie Click. :D
