Heating Pads

I was talking to Adelaide through email a while back, comparing aches and pains. We both agreed we didn't like electric heating pads, especially at bedtime. Well, it turns out that she's been making the kind filled with buckwheat that you put in the microwave. She sent me a couple and they are WONDERFUL!

 

Even in this heat, or should I say especially in this heat because of the fan blowing on me, I need to keep the back of my neck warm because of my cervical ribs (a birth defect). I can lie in bed with all that nice cool air blowing on me but still apply heat to my neck now. I'm cool, my neck is warm, and even though there's no one there to see it but the cat, they are pretty. Addie knows how much I love elephants so the square one (the other is long and narrow - I can use it for my jaw) is covered with flannel that has elephants on it. 

 

 I had always heard about these things but until I found out my friend actually makes them I never tried one. Now I know why people love them!

 

So anyway, I wanted to give a public thanks to Addie, for making my stiff and sore old bones feel better!

I'm so glad you feel better! And we all know that happiness and smiling is good for the soul so little things like elephants that only you and your cat will see will help. That is why all of mine are giraffes! :lol: I find that with the AC I have to snuggle up with mine this summer because BRRRR!!!!! Fortunately I have plenty to binge watch on Netflix and I love to read so I have lots to keep me busy while I'm snuggled up in bed. ^_^

      In the thread I linked to above, one of our sponsors here sells gluten-free nuts, dried fruits, etc (a coupon that might work for you there is GF20) https://www.tierrafarm.com/

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, and what you’re describing is very real—even if other people can’t see it. Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re faking anything. You deserve to be believed and supported, especially at school and at home. It may help to talk with a gastroenterologist or rheumatologist who understands autoimmune pain in teens, and to let a trusted adult help advocate for accommodations when you need them. Wanting to feel like a normal kid makes complete sense—and you’re not alone in feeling this way.

      Don't  let one bad apple spoil the bunch,. as they say. Many health care professionals are doing their jobs the best they can, so it's important to try to work with them in a respectful manner, if when they might be wrong about something.
