I’m so exhausted I can’t breathe or stop moaning with every exhalation. Feel like I’m surely dying

I feel stupid asking this since you are a nurse, but do you think you need to go to the ER?

in reply to Marshall64

I don’t know...my chest is so heavy

in reply to Marshall64

Maybe I should do an Albuterol aerosol treatment

I wish I could be more helpful. You know way more about medical issues than I ever will but Here I Am and I are here to be with you through this episode.

Oh God, I can’t thank you guys enough...

in reply to

It’s going to be ok. Do you know what is causing your pain?

in reply to

Exhaustion

in reply to

What have you been doing?

in reply to

Slept 3 hours Thursday night, worked 12 hours on Friday. Stayed up all night Friday night because my adult son was suicidal, then worked another 12 Saturday having had no sleep. Now I’m awake and have to work another 12 today.

in reply to

Just can’t get adequate rest and now I can’t breathe

Pls call ambulance.. don’t ignore signs

in reply to

Wow 😮 the love of a mother. Can you call into work and explain the situation?

in reply to

We have no staff and that’s why I had to work this weekend. It’s just so incredibly taxing

in reply to

Well yeah. You are only human. I don’t know as a man if I could do what you did. Lol

in reply to

I didn’t know I had it in me, but it’s also killing me. My heart has been flip-flopping for days! Now both my calves are contracting. I feel so bad...

in reply to

Maybe you need some potassium? Do you have any bananas?

in reply to

Of course not!

in reply to

Yes never a banana around when you need one. What about a hot bath?

in reply to

I am not good at this. Please accept my apology.

in reply to

Yes, you are and you have no Idea how much you’re appreciated for your time and efforts 🙂

in reply to

I don’t know if you are religious but I will leave you with this one thought. When Jesus hung on the cross their were only two people who stayed with him. His mother and St. John. Like Mary you are keeping vigil at the cross with your son. I am praying for you and your son.

in reply to

Thank you! Yes, My Sweet Lord is my Savior and Deliverer who has made all good things possible for me. He’s the only reason I got through yesterday and will make it today! My courage and strength, my main Man! 🌺🙂🌺

in reply to

No stopper in the tub! I will be taking a shower at 5:00 regardless...

You have to rest, call in sick...I’ve felt that level of exhaustion before and it is serious. My body was breaking down. It is vital you get rest, take an Ativan or something and knock out for hours.

in reply to

I wish I had an Ativan...

in reply to

Do you have any benzodiazepine or something sedating? You literally just need something to knock yourself out with and finally get sleep. I had insomnia for months and was only getting 3 hours a night, finally got ambien CR and didn’t see daylight for 10 hours. It reset my brain. I think at this point your not going to fall asleep on your own too much adrenaline. Does your son have a med like a sleeping pill you can use?

in reply to

No, he hasn’t sought treatment in a couple of years. I’ve never had this problem until my sister died last year.

in reply to

No benzos, they will no longer prescribe them or narcotics.

in reply to

Maybe then a Tylenol pm and melatonin. I’m sorry, insomnia is pure torture.

in reply to

I agree...all antihistamines aggravate my restless legs and will pay the price if I take one or 2. RLS is torture!

Marshall64 in reply to

I don't hand RLS but have something similar called Periodic Limb Movement Disorder. It was discovered during a sleep study. I get klonopin for that and insomnia. It makes a difference for both conditions.

in reply to Marshall64

I used to take Klonopin too until I was taken off due to it being a benzo. Insomnia is relatively new to me. I don’t have it figured out yet!

in reply to Marshall64

I’m gonna try and lie down now and see if I can sleep a little until my alarm goes off at 4:00! Your thoughtfulness and time are greatly appreciated! You’re definitely one of my buddies now ❤️🌞❤️

in reply to

Thanks so much for helping me Lynn...I sure do admire you! I will not forget your kindness 🌺

You need a break..please look after yourself..please..

in reply to

You’re very sweet! I’m going to push through today and do nothing but lie on the couch tomorrow! Thank you so much for caring 🙂🌷🙂

Maybe some chamomile tea & lavender scents before bed might help. Just a thought 🌸

in reply to Unknown13
