's New Rhuemy Update

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

May 4th was finally the Day for seeing her New Rhuemy. (Adult

Rhuemy). She's suppose to be the Best Rhuemy. lolol. I am wondering though now.

But she was nice and listened to . Her Assistant came in first and

asked what her Pain scale was today. lolol. said well about 3

or

4. The the first exam began. This Assistant did the whole joint thing.

's Pain scale was going up due to hitting spots that really hurt. She

pushed

on 's shoulders and moved. She said oh that hurts

said Yes. She went down to the Elbows and wow gave out a Ouch. Down to

the hands those hurt. looked at me with this look of Ma I am hurting

lolol. I said you better let her know its hurting. Well This Lady asked

where did it hurt when she pushed on the hand and said well it

hurts in the hand and travels up to the shoulder. She just kept pushing on those

hands and wrists. Hips were next and she pushed and hollered. The

Lady said where does this hurt. said your making my back hurt now.

lolol. She asked again where does it hurt when I push on your hips

said

my hips and my back. She went down to the Knees and jumped Does that

hurt the lady asked said YES. I am sitting and just watching. Alittle

fluid in the left knee the lady said just like fluid in the Left wrist. My

thought was oh Lordy shes going to have to draw that out.

Then for some reason the Lady pushed on 's thigh and jumped.

Where does that hurt. said well down my leg and up my back. She went

on down to the ankle and foot. I am thinking lordy this lady is making

hurt worser than she was before she walked in that door. wasn't a

Happy camper. lololol. Well The Lady pushed on 's calf and got

to squirming. She asked where does that hurt. said it goes up to my

back and now you have my feet hurting. said Look I was a 3 or 4 before

you started now I am a 10. She said I am sorry about this but I have to do

this. So hear comes the Tuning bar or whatever it is called lolol. Boy now

this got 's arm, hand, leg going. But it was weird do the arm and the

leg

moved lolol. By this time I am saying ok to myself seems to me that each

joint is really connected. The Lady said ok I need you to lay back.

laid

back but said ok now you have me hurting everywhere and this table

isn't feeling good. She walked out and said You know Ma

I am hurting bad now why did she have to just keep on and on when I told her

It hurt. sat up then laid on her side. It's not funny but I said

well honey You know if your not hurting do not go to a rhuemy lololol.

said NOW you tell me that. lololol. Well the Doctor came in and looked

over. She asked about 's routine and sleeping habits.

We told her that she had went to a sleep study and the routine. She said we

need to change that sleeping habit lolol. I said I wish we could that's why

she went for the study. I told her has had a problem since this all

started. She looked at the knee and wrist and said she wouldn't do anything

with

them unless they swelled more. Then asked about drinking Pepsi and

Coke. said I do not drink anything but water. Which surprized this Dr.

lolol. I said is mostly a Veggie person and drinks only water. I

also let her know 's eating habits had changed since being Diagnosed and

it didn't help a lot but it did help. In the back of my mind I am thinking ok

this Dr is nuts. lolol. Trying to say 's sleeping habits and eating

habits play a role in this. Which it does but I can't help the sleeping

problem. Then this Dr said ok what helps you . lolol. said not

much

anymore. I need something to stop the pain and feeling tired. She asked about

giving percocets. said you can give it to me but I have a

bottle at home I do not take. She asked why not if your hurting. said

it doesn't do any good for me but knock me out and I am hurting worse when I

wake up. She seen right then that isn't a person who takes Pain

medication alot. This Dr said ok. I want to see the history on you and get some

labs done and see the old xrays. I want to see you back in 3 months. I am going

to keep you on all your on now since you know what helps. But have you ever

taken MTX. said no. She said have you taken Gold shots. said

no. said I have never taken anything by shot but a pain shot in the

ER. Well the visit went ok. Nothing gained but hurting worse. This Dr

I think wants to see everything and the History of . I typed a History

up on prior to the Visit so it's a Basic report on what's she's been

through and her activites and how she manages at home. The Assistant said

this would be helpful with the other records. The funny part of the day was

when asked my brother to go in with her to get the Labs done lololol.

This Brother can look at a needle and faint. He gets pale if he hears the word

Needle or blood. He said look I will walk you to the Lab but I am

sitting in the waiting room. said please you can hold my hand.

is a mess with him. He watched her go in by herself and he said ain't you

going in with her? I said no but you can. He was turning pale. A kid was in the

back and my brother said oh no way MAN I can't handle this Robbin. I told him

look you can't see the needle or blood. He said But Robbin it's the noise.

He got up and went to the bathroom. He was very serious about it. When

came out she said look seeeeee it didn't hurt a bit. He said look

y'all know I am like Momma about needles. I can't look at your arm.

said what are you going to do if you cut yourself? He said I

ain't going to get myself in that situation. and I laughed and said

well It's kinda hard to avoid that at some point in your life. My Brother

said well I will think about that when I get to that bridge.

We pick on him about the needles because it is something he needs to

understand. Soon as we got home my sister had the Diabetic checker out and he

walked

right in when she snapped it and was bleeding. My brother said Oh H*** no I

am out of here dang it if I am not in a Lab I have to walk into the Sister

blood factory. lolol We all died laughing. went out to check on him and

she came back and said you know he is not laughing hes out there sitting on

the driveway and is white as a sheet. I do not know how I am going to get him

over this. One thing about it he will run if someone is bleeding. This boy

can cut up a fish or Deer

and that does not bother him. But human blood or a needle does. Sorry this

was long but it was a good day.
