Well, I am as much as I can be (can't flex the leg at the moment, I couldn't quite get it to pop in right this time). Once the swelling goes down I'll be able to shift back in correctly.

This has been happening to me since I was 16 I'm afraid, so while it hurts like all the levels of hell, I'm accustomed to it and simply try to be as normal as possible despite it... the fact that I have adverse reactions to most medications does not help matters however :S ...but what can you do but carry on?

Yow! Man, that sucks. I know exactly what you mean about carrying on though ...

*hugs and or skritches as you might prefer* I am sorry that you know about carrying on, as I've picked up from your posts that you have health problems as well (though I do not know what sort and I apologise if I am too forward in mentioning such)

Got it back in all the way, but ow that hurt, I think my spelling has bottomed out in response.

Primarily chronic fatigue syndrome, which is like the fatigue you get after having flu except it never goes away, on top of which I have breathing problems [combination of hyperventilation and lower back weirdness] and a battery of allergies and food intolerances [dairy's the worst, but but not the only thing by a long shot]. It's a fucking pain, you know?

[You apologise a lot. Do not worry. I am very hard to offend.]

Ow. Hope you feel better soon!

Oh ick, I've heard of such and I know what a pain it can be to be tired all the time! *offers tea or pepsi* Allergies cause so many problems, I hope they are overall managable?

[Erm, yes I do. I was raised in a very formal manner and my manner set is a mix of my great grandparents, grandparents and parents generation, as in my syntax and many of my word choices. I oft have to stop and think to not bow slightly, or speak in an out-of date and overly formal manner. It is overall easier on the net, where I have time to stop, step back and make myself sound less formal and more 'modern/casual' or when I am with my family, with whom I can be very boisterous and casual. I will try to be less formal/old fashioned.]

Thank you. The pains dropped down to 'no longer have tunnel vision' so i should be back to my norm in time that I can hopefully get some sleep before work.

Thanks, but I can't have caffeine - gives me heart palpitations. Why is it I'm crazily oversensitive to everything EXCEPT painkillers? I'd like to hear a doctor explain *that* to me.

[It is ye old poem again ... "They fuck you up, your mum and dad ... "]

Oh wow. That's bad. You poor thing! :: hugs ::

... wait, wait, you're *working*? :: jawdrop ::

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. Caffine free tea then, I have some lovely earl grey green of jasmine tea, Twinnings I think.

Actually I get along grand with my parents most times, and it was hardly their fault that I thought my mom was playing a game and taught myself to read when she tutored students;) I never fit in with my peer group, so all of my friends were usually two generations older than I, the only friends I've really made in my age bracket were made through BWA, 2K5 and Botcon... it was... the first time I met people where I was not shunned or the like, it's why I doubt I will ever leave the fandom.

Umm yes. I work retail and landscaping part time and will begin teaching in a year or two. When my joints get bad I simply grit my teeth, keep smiling and keep going. When my hip dislocates I get it back in, take a deep breath and keep going. It is not that I enjoy the pain but I've learned over the last decade or two to push through it... I love working with things that grow and good, tilled soil... making yards beautiful and bright and the like. I am very good at teaching and love it when you SEE that moment of realisation in someone's eyes of They Got It. I also worked with animal rescue and rehab in florida but haven't found a local group up here that is not manned by pysco PETA nuts yet;)

It's a bit weird. I can have one cup of green or white tea okay, but two cups gives me heart flutters, but black tea is right out.

Mhm. I've made the best friends in my life through Transfandom and have no intention of abandoning them with the fandom; we have mutual interests outside of Transformers. It's just the greater mass of the fandom that's driving me to drink or disembarkation.

Damn, I actually envy you. CFS doesn't give me the determination-and-endurance-and-just-fucking-do-it option, it just sledgehammers me over the head and knocks me down when I do the slightest little thing out of order.

Oh dear it's from a poem (I don't like poetry much) that I just took out of context as I didn't know the rest didn't I?

I did, yes. It's a rather accurate observation.
