Jill, I am very sensitive to medications. We often find that the children's doses of most things are best for me. I have never done well on Gastrocrom, but they always start me out on the adult dose - even though all my "add on" or "extra" meds are children's sized doses. This is curious and is making me interested in one more try at Gastrocrom - in a very low dose. Got to look into that one. Yoga - yes, I swear by it. It helps my pain, my fatigue, my blues about my pain and fatigue - everything. I also enjoy weight lifting at the gym. I am not using any real heavy weights - not trying to be a champion body builder here, just keeping those muscles stretched out good, well used, and trying to prevent some old lady muscles (I fear arm flab). I am by nature a creative, so anything that I can do to keep my creative energy going is helpful to my health. I love to paint, listen to music, play music, build stuff. Recently I took up knitting, its something I can do in bed on "those" days. Also lots of prayer, and if I feel that I have hit God at a particularly busy time, I will write a letter and put it in my desk drawer. The idea there is that what ever it is now belongs to God, I put it in writing to God, I can't worry over it anymore. My Doc has me on Omega 3 now and on Caltrate D. I have forgotten what the Omega 3 is for, but I am taking it. Renee, if I remember why I am taking the Omega 3 - I'll post. I don't take anything that the Doc doesn't have a good reason for - so I am sure that he had a good argument on that one, just can't recall it now. Something about I don't eat fish - but brain fog is hitting on that one, all I recall is I'm not eating fish and the Doc got that he wasn't going to talk me into eating fish. __________________ Sharon in NC
