How are you feeling? Are you tolerating food any better?

Are you still flaring? Did you start taking the antinflammatories?

I hope you are feeling better.

Hi ,

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. Please don't worry,

I am okay. I am looking for a new doctor. I just don't like this GI

doctor. I called my Rheumy to get my appointment for remicade and he is

starting it at his office in January. So I called the hospital were I had

it done before and they are completly booked up until later in January.

They told me remicade is becoming so popular that they can not keep up with

it. They are in the process of enlarging the area were they do the

infusions. Being booked up was not what I wanted to hear. A part of me

still thinks it was the remicade that caused the pancreatitis. I wanted to

do the infusion right after Xmas, so if anything happened I would be okay

by the time school starts on January 17. So back to my doctor I went, his

nurse is going to call me next week to set everything up. So I am hoping

to have the first infusion done by the 5th or 6th. I want to do at his

office in case anything happens he will be right there.

My diet is the same as it has been. I have gotten use to the Ensure, its

not so bad. Today I tried vegetable soup, I just wish I wouldn't get so

sick to my stomach. Anyway things are okay, I am anxious to get back to

school. All the Xmas shopping is hard to do, we all know how that kicks in

the fatigue and addition pain.

Hope you and kids had a nice Thanksgiving, I was thinking about you.

Me Mom

Hi . Yes this Christmas stuff knocks a lot out of me. I didn't do

much decorating this year. I'm just to tired. We did one room instead of

the normal entire downstairs. We didn't even put any outside lights up.

This is the first year that we didn't. doesn't need to be climbing up

ladders with his fragile back. It's just not worth it.

I hope you find a GI doc soon. I think you should follow your instincts.

When you other doctors don't get along with him, there is something wrong!

I just want them to find the root of your problem and fix it!

The holidays aren't the time to not be able to eat!

,

I haven't heard of RA causing pancreatis, although I guess it could be

possible since it can attact other organs.

Scleraderma and Lupus can cause it.

, I think I'll worry about you until you get the answers you need

regarding your stomach problems. I'm wishing for a much more comfortable

2001 for you.

Sorry that you can't get your Remicade infusion sooner. I think it's a good

idea to have it done at your doctor's office. Both of you will probably be

more comfortable with that.

I know how much you want to return to school, but please take care of

yourself and don't try to do too much before you are feeling better. The

school will be there awaiting your return.

The kids and I had a fine Thanksgiving, thank you. You were on my mind then,

too (especially when I was eating). We are looking forward to Christmas. My

NJ brother and his wife, and my NY sister and her family will be coming to

town, so there will be a lot of visiting and laughing going on. I hope that

the shopping and preparations don't wear you out and that you can feel well

enough to enjoy yourself.

Ask Santa for a good gastroenterologist for Christmas! I know you've been

very good.

Hi a,

I'm sorry to take so long, not a great week-end. I'm glad I am not the

only one not putting a lot of decorations up. When I worked for s

Nursery, I loved to decorate, they use to send me too other stores to

decorate them. It was a nice time. I find all the posts about RA and

environment and chemicals interesting. Again when I worked for s we

were constantly around chemicals, fertilizers, mulches all gardening stuff.

I can remember people coming in and asking how could we stand the smell of

all this stuff. The truth is we worked around it so much they we didn't

notice it at all. Another things that has me thinking is the hot house we

all walked through a hundred times a day was full of mold and mildrew. I

remember one time one of the employees was going to call and find out if

legally we had to work around it. It was so bad, it grew all over the

walls. One time we had rats so bad in the store it wasn't even funny. I

have never thought about all this until I was reading the post. I have to

wonder if this didn't play a part in me developing RA.

Hope you and are feeling better? Soon Xmas will be over with all

the running around and stress. Have a good day.

Hi ,

I am so sorry to take so long. I think I will be glad when Xmas is over.

I love Christmas but it is just to much. I am looking for the new GI

doctor, I don't think I will even keep the appointment I have for Jan. 2,

with the current doctor. I am nervous about the remicade but I want to try

it again. I know the RA is getting worse, I can feel it. I have been

baking soon, it is just not Xmas to me if I don't bake. At least year I

won't have to worry about eating the cookie batter, like I usually do. I'm

glad you and the kids had a nice Thanksgiving, it all takes time to get use

too. You will be busy for Christmas, don't tire yourself. At least the

kids will be home and you can rest after the holidays.

Have a good day,

Me Mom

Hi ,

It never dawned on me when I working there, that it was so dangerous. The

reason they put their chemicals outside is they are cheap and afraid they

will get stolen. As I think back I am not sure what was worse the

chemicals or the smelly hot house. Anyway that is all over with, I find it

interesting though.

I have been trying to bake and shop. Almost done but am I tired. All my

family is coming Saturday for dinner, Sunday my daughter-in-law is doing

the seven fish dinner. She did it last year and it was nice. My daughters

want to go to midnight mass, Christmas Eve. Christmas my kids are coming

for lunch and open gifts. lynn and Cherylynn don't want to open the

gifts until their brothers get here. Sometime I think I must have done

something right. Then it is to Grandmom's for dinner. Somehow I think the

couch will be my friend for the next week. Good thing I like to read.

I think everyone on this list is going to be very tired come Tuesday.

I have been wondering were Esther and Carol are at. I hope everything is

okay.

Have a good night,

Me Mom

Me Mom ,

You and I are quite a pair for late responding! No need to apologize, I

surely understand just as you do. Working at a place like 's, I'm sure

you LOVED to decorate. Whenever I got to craft stores, I get so many ideas,

but unfortunately my ambition level isn't as high. I just got all the

stuff to make a nice wreath, and it's still sitting in the bags. I keep

hoping that the Christmas Elves would come here and make it for me

Environmental issues are linked to AI diseases, and it surely wouldn't

surprise me if it was the cause. Whenever our bodies are exposed to foreign

particles, the immune system jumps in to the rescue. Since our planet is

so toxic, it is hard to get away from toxins. Working in contaminated

buildings is surely not very good for you.

Whatever the cause, I just hope a cure is found for all of us.

I feel better thanks. I just have a cold The first few days I felt

rotten, but now I'm doing better. is still a mess. They found

another herniated disc in his thoracic area. Tomorrow he goes back to the

neurosurgeons to discuss options.

I hope you are feeling better. I want to hear that you are eating again

and not in pain!
