Hey friends,
I regret to announce that The Painted Hinge will be on hiatus so I focus on my ongoing health issues.
Unfortunately the very little progress that I had made back to health was wiped out by a bad reaction to another medication that was supposed to help me sleep, and I am now worse off than I was in the beginning. This is a new development and I am still in shock in disbelief over it so I’m not going to get into details right now. If and when I return to blogging, I will fill you all in.
If you’re looking for the Farmhouse Friday Link Party, my good friend and co-host Cindy will continue to host it on her blog County Road 407. I hope you will join her there.
Thank you to everyone who supported me with your love and words of encouragement that kept this blog going over the years – my family, friends, fellow bloggers, and of course my wonderful readers. I hope you always found my content here both helpful and enjoyable.
Love and Light to you all.
Until next time,
Michelle

Hi Michelle, I just recently saw your reply to my comment of several weeks ago. I’ll be brief and give you the quick version of the message. After being ill for years I finally got a piece of the puzzle figured out. Not from doctors, but from me sleuthing it out. I’m allergic to the “base ingredient” of the Covid vaccine and many other injectables and medications. P.E.G. Polyethylene Glycol, polysorbate 80, etc. It’s in most vaccines, infusions, meds etc. It’s a “binder” and “grease” of the basic vaccines. It’s in pain meds, sleeping pills, supplements etc. It was a big part of my inability to get a deep breath, neuro problems, dizziness, migraines etc. It’s also in Mira Lax etc. My allergy isn’t anaphylaxis where doctors might catch on but a progressive problem with the more I get the worse my symptoms. I also have a multitude of autoimmune illnesses and diseases. Have you been tested for all of them? They are sneaky and effect different people in odd ways. The PEG allergy is insidious and about 10 doctors missed it. Sometimes doctors are clueless and don’t put 2 and 2 together. I hope you get things figured out. But if you got worse after the vaccine there’s a good chance that that might be the culprit. Take care friend, and I’ll be praying you get this worked out.

I’m so sorry you’re going through all this turmoil.
My thoughts, touch base with Debra. I know she has gone through this as she said.
Having AMS, doctors at times are too clinical and forget the obvious.
You may get your answers finally.
Saying prayers and hope you reach out to Debra
