Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Welcome . My name is Patty but here I use Melt because that is a nickname I was given by friends. I have had Stills diagnosed for over 25 years. For myself it got better and I hope the very same for you and all here. I've had many ups and downs and can very much understand the worst of this disease as well as the best times. We look forward to knowing you better. Smiles for your day, Melt ----- Original Message ----- From: EVELYN COVERT Hi everyone my name is .I'm 28 years old and was diagnosed with Lupas and stills disease almost ten years ago , right now I sometimes feel as if i'm fighting a no win situation.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Hi , Welcome to our fantastic group of people. I know exactly what you mean when you say you can't get your shoes on your feet. A couple of years ago I was in that same situation. My feet looked like two loaves of bread. I now take Enbrel and MTX and the swelling and inflammation has gone down, almost nonexistent. What meds are you taking? Where do you reside? We are having a "get together" October in Philadelphia and maybe you could join in and meet some of us and get some information about Stills that isn't always mentioned here. We do have brochures that really explain Stills and it's nice to give them to friends, family and our doctors. If you'd like some, just give a holler to "Bob, Old Goat" and he'll send some your way. Glad to meet you and look forward to more of your posts. Mi. Carmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Hi , Nice to meet you! My name is Tricia, and I live in beautiful central Wisconsin. Have had the Stills disease from onset (1971) too many years to remember anymore. The folks here are very sincere, loving human beings who put up with more pain and suffering than should ever be allowed by mankind.....but they/we manage to keep each other going! Keep fighting..because someday..We Will Win! from Wisconsin, Tricia -- please tell me Hi everyone my name is .I'm 28 years old and was diagnosed with Lupas and stills disease almost ten years ago , right now I sometimes feel as if i'm fighting a no win situation. I would really like to be able to talk with a friend who knows what it feels like to wake up in my shoes ( if I can get them on that is).some mornings are wonderful others you just dont know what to expect.I am very happy to have found all of you and hoping to get to know you also.
