Hi everyone, Just wanted to let you know.Dr.Bergers office called twice regarding my 6 month follow up. I was just able to return their call. I was happy to tell the nurse I feel so much better!No more pain, No more MOOD SWINGS, No more RAGE! The best part is being able to enjoy my kids. Before the TR I felt like I was 80 years old! Now I have my energy back Thanks again to Dr. Berger and his staff They are truly the best! Lynn

I am not sure of everyones situation however this I learned after my own TR and other Surgeries... Some Pain Meds will cause people to enter a state of depression... So if you are taking any try to come off and see what you feel like... Chemicals reek havic on o ur bodies...

We have fun. It's like when we are together some genetic thing clicks and the silliness comes out LOL I do all that to avoid a normal job, and be here for the kids, but also I get bored fast so I need some changes of pace sometimes. One job just won't cut it. None of it is full time so it works. It's all part time here and there. Hope all goes well with you and you get your TR you'll see there were for me some things I really had no idea were symptoms. I feel so good now it's great!!

Sorry it took me so long to answer ! My DH just had surgery ,so that's why . It's nothing really. The thing is that he is funny ,he just doesn't seem to get my sense of humour though .I think he is a little stress out.
It is so funny what you said that happened at the store !Made me laugh so much! Love it !LOL, I do know that song LOL . You know what's funny ? that my brother and I used to be like that! , my father too. I live too far away from them now , but when we get together is still the same and we laugh and laugh ,they always come up with something ,and I am the "lucky one" that gets to laugh it out ,and enjoy every minute of it !Laughter is the best "therapy" for everything really . Wow I am impressed ! You run two business , and you are also a substitute teacher ! How do you do it? I have to tell you : I absolutely love the way you look at live ! Thank you again for your info about TR . I am absolutely convinced that my symptoms and pain are because of PTLS! And thank you again for your posts . I absolutely enjoy them ! Take care

Hugs to you too, yeah I just told my DH the other day he is way more serious than me. I just can't help it, my brother is the same way, we are always amused at something. You know that song "Because I'm your laaadyyy and you are my maaan" You know that one? It was playing in the store the other day, I asked him if that was the song he sings to his wife at night LOL He said, only if I have my Little Bo Peep outfit on LOL totally ridiculous. The check out clerk was laughing really hard. LOL
TR does help with some stuff but I'm just as silly as ever. I'm worse when I'm pregnant, it's pretty bad I get on a roll and laugh so hard. I know that one, the kids totally get it we have a lot of fun. Some adults are just way too serious. Life should be fun you know? That's how I see it. I run 2 businesses and substitute teach also, I work hard I can be serious but I like to make it fun. I have to say I love life, even when it's unkind and unfair and things are horrible I still love it whole heartedly and always will. Life is good even when it's bad, there's always something good, if you look for it. TR really took away my physical symptoms, made things better, I'm not so tired and not in pain so I can laugh even more now

You're welcome. I've just seen too much. NY is a rough place, but I do love it, it's made me wiser. Some times the best way to love someone is to turn your back on them, it starts trouble but the trouble is fleeting comparted to dealing with it forever.
I will say TR has helped with my PTLS so much. I had symptoms I had no idea it was a symptom you know?? Like being cold all of the time? I'm warm, my feet are warm for the first time in 7 years LOL It can help with the emotional stuff but I think you are having emotions normal to a bad situation. I'd feel the same way exactly as you I'm sure. Idiot repellant LOL yeah it makes me laugh too, I'm eternally entertaining myself with my own brain I swear. I think things are so funny, I told my DH my brain is as ticklish as my feet sometimes, only it's thoughts not hands LOL
You hang in there, it'snot easy but once it's established things will smooth out and be a lot nicer for you. Growing pains you know?

Mama12, Thank you so much for your post , I absolutely love it!!! and I couldn't agree more with you ! Well I don't Know about the "B" part that you say... LOL. Anyway sounds great to me .I am sure things work better that way. I really need to get a backbone with them though I think I am a little "frightened" about what they might do if they don't get their way ,( because of things in the past ) and since I have two little kids I always tried to "keep the peace" so this won't be "like war". But YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT . I don't know if you realize how much you've opened my eyes and HOW MUCH YOU'VE HELPED ME WITH YOUR POST !!!! Specially what you say about the "B"... it's like I,ve always been "scared" of being called that , and somehow they knew it .But you know ?your right! I'd rather be called that and have control on my life and have that "idiot repellent" all over me ... ! ..."idiot repellent"! it made laught so much ! . Hope you could really can it LOL ,sell it and make a fortune! ( it would be well deserved ) Thank you so very much again , Your post has really lifted me and help me to see things from a different perspective. Thank you .

Sometimes the best thing you can do it turn you back. Here is a little story for you: I had some kids that were being horrible to me in a bad neighborhood I lived in, I was pregnant with my 1st DD. These guys thought I was the cutest thing since apple pie. They would come over and try and get me to do drugs with them, I'm not talking marijuana I'm talking hard core, crack. Well I don't do any drugs. I told them if they didn't leave I'd sic my dog on them. Well they came back so I said that's it, let my pitbull loose, they ran screaming, never came back, I told them next time it would be a gun in their face and my cousin who's the Chief of police greeting them. Well 5 years later one of those boys was at a party we were at, he apologized. He said he was sorry for his behavior, he had spent 2 years in and out of rehab and was finally 1 year sober and clean, going to college getting his life together going for a masters degree. My point is DO NOT TOLERATE IT. Let them lay in the beds they've made. You don't want to have more children with trash like that around, even if it's your own trash, you have to take it out sometimes. I love my kids, but if they ever did that I would not hesitate to close the door and they know it. I will not tolerate it or help them behave like that. Sometimes being a B is the best thing you can be. Drugs make people insane, depending on the drug. They kill people, they rob people, it's just insanity. Doesn't matter who it is, where they are from, it will chew them up and spit them out. The point is they need to learn that. They need to get chewed up and spit out and have nothing. You don't have to watch it. Get wise to the games and walk away they are old enough to get the boot.... They will try every which way to get what they want, it's deceptive and down right evil. You don't want to have more kids with them hanging around it's just dangerous, in everyway. It's just my opinion, I know you love them but there's a point you know... Self preservation and the preservation of future children. I hate to be this blunt but it's for the best. I've seen enough being where I'm from. That's why we left NY and moved to TN. I have no tolerance for it. My once nice neighborhood turned into a festering wound of crack, cocaine and pill dealers within 5 years. A block and half away from an elementary school no less. There are greener pastures
