question

[Guest guest]

Eleanor,

Years ago, before I was truly diagnosed, I experienced long periods of

remission & wasn't on any meds, or at least meds for Stills. My flares each

& every time were brought on by an infection of some sort: bacillery

dystentry, staph, amoeba, & can't remember the last one. The last one

pushed me into a chronic disease pattern though. Perhaps my age & changing

hormones has something to do with it being chronic, or maybe eventually it

just happens. I don't know why & neither do the doctors. My body was

stressed each time though, so in a sense " stress " triggered the flares, but

I think you are probably asking about emotional stress. For me, emotional

stress has not been the trigger.

Blessings,

Teri

Beth,

I agree with you that stress must play a major role in

this disease, as with stress comes flares (for me).

Also, doing stress reduction exercises is a wonderful

habit to get into...I would be happy to get into any

type of exercise. I have gotten totally out of my

routine since the holidays and I need exercise bad.

I'm afraid of a flare though because I don't feel

really strong right now. I thought I had been flaring

but my Primary Care Physician called to say that all

my blood work looked good except that my white blood

cell count was really high...indicating to him that I

have some sort of infection???? It would be the first

infection I have had since having Still's. I would

almost welcome an infection because to me that means

that maybe my immune system is somewhat back to

normal. I have not had a cold, infection or even a

fever blister since my onset. My immune system has

been in such overdrive.

Anyway...

Much Love, Kim

This makes sense to me. When I was first diagnosed with SD, the idiot rheumy

I had back then would write JRA on my paper work. I had a skin problem back

then too. They called it winter skin back then. I have no idea what it was.

Now a days I get the rash, but I don't remember if the rash as a kid was the

same as the rashes I get now. The SD rash comes and go. But I do have

another form of rash that comes up and when it does, I become lizard woman.

It's awful. The dermatologist gave me a special cortisone cream and shampoo

that I have to use when that happens. In addition, it also itches like the

dickens and if I start to sweat, it really gets agitated. Hopefully, it

won't come back for a long time, if ever. It sure won't hurt my feelings.

Hang in there.

Much love,

Terry

Randy had sever excema as a young child. So bad that he couldn't start

kindergarten. The rheumy thinks it is was related or was Still's then. I

need to grill him more on this.

Anyway, for Randy it was physical stress. He hurt his knee jumping off

a stage when he was in his 20's. A musician, showing off. The knee gave

him grief on and off over the years. But last Christmas, when he came

home from rehearsal in the wee hours of the morning, his knee gave out.

He was down on the floor 20 minutes. Well, that was how it started. His

symptoms are much different than most of other Still's patients. But

indeed, Still's.

I have mentioned this before, his rheumy treats 14 Still's patients. We

are in the out skirts of Seattle. Seems like a lot to me.

Steph

Wouldn't be surprised if he needs a knee replacement soon.

[Guest guest]

Weird, as we talk about the rash. Well, guess who is breaking out! On

his behind. Deep rash too. And he wants me to check it out. OWWW!

Randy came home looking soo tired, actually the last two days. I asked

him if he thought he was in a flare. The rash on the ass, and lethargic

behavior. but the plaquenil works. But he is being a total pain in the

you now where. No more fevers, or Clyde and wilber, the imanginary

friends when he hits 104.

This sucks!

Connie,

I've been on Effexor XR 37.5 mg for about two years now. At first, my doc did

the same thing by upping the dose to 75 mg. He then upped it to 125 mg! I

didn't notice a difference in feeling any different. However, I had awful dry

mouth, eyes, and thought I had Sjorgren's. They tested for that and found I

didn't have that. Then it dawned on my doc that maybe it was all side effects

of the Effexor XR. After I was dropped back down to 37.5 mg, I have had no side

effects. The " XR " in the name means " extended release, " so you might want to

ask your doc about staying at a lower dose. It does take a while for the drug

to build up in your system. Then you will start to see any good or bad effects.

All I know is that I wish my doc had just stuck with the 37.5 mg dose and let me

stay on that for a while before increasing it. I really didn't like the side

effects, especially the nasty " dry mouth. "

That's my 2 cents. Hope you find the right dosage for you!

All my heart,

Jul

Re: question

Hi gang

iam back and will be posting or bugging everyone more with my posts.LOL

the energy level is getting better every day. I have one question i was on

zoloft for depression and that seemed to help but after the insurance quite

paying for it its was eithe paxil or prozac and i have heard so many horrror

stories regarding the paxil i said pass on it so i tried prozac have been on

it a couple months and it didnt seem like it was helping my rheumy said also

it was understandable to have the depression i have with everythig that i

have been thru since november. so she changed my antidepression meds to

Effexor XR starting out at 37.5 ,g then increasing to 75mg in a week. of

course after i get it filled my insurance doesnt pay for this one either.

This damn HMO is getting to be a big pain in the u know what.

If anyone has taken the Effexor XR could you please let me know your sucesss

or non sucesss of this drug.

Iam back to the shop alsmost full time now the pneumonia set me back about

2 weeks to where i wanted to be so this bad weather came at a great time. i

went to the the big dealer show with my hubby for the weekend and we walked 2

days straight i made it barley my legs and body was so run down and hurting

it took me a week to recover but it was well worth getting away from home and

being with my hubby alone we had a great time. We still have issues but we

seem to both be trying to work on them. My mom had to remind me that during a

marriage there will be rough patches this is our first in 8 years and u cant

just leave and get a divorce because things get bad. You stay and work them

out. Especially when you have a good husband like i have. She said thats

whats wrong with my generation we dont stick things out when things get tough

we just divorce. so we are working on us.

just wanted to let everyone know iam alive and well for a change.

Hi gang...

Do any of you ever feel foggy in the head to the point where you feel a real

pressure in your head that that advil/ aspirin can't relieve? I also get

dizzy and spaced out as a result of this. I know I've probably been overdoing

it lately, but not sure if this is from my previous Lymes/ chronic fatigue or

Stills.

Thanks,

Eleanor

question

Dear Friends, I'm so sorry I haven't been posting lately,I have been in alot

of pain for some time now,which isn't a good excuse for ignoring my

friends,but hopefully explains a little and I ask you to forgive me.Welcome

to all the new members and I am so glad you found us,but so sad you needed

to.

Now on to my question,as some of you know I have been having a problem with

my left arm and shoulder.I had an Mri two weeks ago and the diagnosis was

Osteo-Arthrosis of the ACjoint.I was wondering if anyone else has been

diagnosed with this and what the treatment(s) is? I am totally in the dark

and only hope it's fixable!I have to make an appt. with an Orthopedic Doc as

soon as possible according to my Rheumy. I've had physical therapy which my

rheumy said only irritated the problem.So any input into this problem would

sure be helpful.Thanks for listening and try to have a physically and

mentally happy day.

Love Elly
