Hello Group; GARY HERE;

I just wanted to say Hi to all and let you know how I'm doing. I must say there

are so many of you sicker than I and it makes me gratfull that my illness is not

as bad as others. Back before my Mother passed away we would take about my

condition and this was before I found this wonderful group of people. This bad

health will make you humble real quick. I would tell Mom there are people worse

off than me, and she would say, yes , but that dosn't matter you are very

sick and that matters to me. So those of you that may not be as sick as others

you read about Matter. You matter to your family and the friends you have . We

are all differant but the same.

We all have something in common, a very bad illness weather it be Stills or

Lupus

or any other health issue, you matter , it is not how sick you are, it is that

you are sick.

That being said, as said, some of you new people need to tell us on line

what your illness is and be free to tell it like it is . No one will judge your

degree of illness we will support you and hope you ask questions about your

illness so you might get some of those question that bother you answered here on

this group site.  

I want to Thank all of you that put up with me bugging you for donations; THANK

YOU so much.

As far as how I'm doing , my bones hurt all over with RA and Osteoprosis in my

hip and arm. I have RA in my hands and wrist bad and Osteo' in my right forearm,

along with the wrist and the left arm I'm wearing a ace bandage due to the pain.

All my bones just hurt. Up and down all night. I can say my Diabetes is in check

and my suger levels are very good. My heart Med's are doing good , I have not

had another stroke in about a year now. So there is some good news with the bad.

My PCP left the VA so now I will have to train a new one. You know how it is to

train a new  doctor. I'm not very good at it but I have a good friend that gives

me advice on how to talk to these doctors. I am 4+ years into Stills now and

sence I got it and went on Steriods for 17 months and leveled out and thought

that was all there is to Stills but found out autoamminue disease can give you a

basket of goodies such as ( Not to scare anyone we are all differant ) I

developed Diabetes,bad eyes,fast heart beet,had a stroke,poor memory,black

out's,amnisia, acute stills attach with renal failure in ICU on life support on

diyalisis and almost died,adhd, have Osteoprosis in my hip joint and my right

forearm ouch',waiting for a second test for thryoids they said they found

something with the nuclear med test-could be a cyst or cancer- let you know it's

on the 13th. So may be more to mention but can't think of the rest right

now-forgot- told you I had a bad

memory...LOL .

So by the Grace of God go I ... with my ailing unhealthy body,diseased unwell

illness's and ailments and disorderdes.

Am I sick ? Yes, Will I get sicker ? Most likely' . Will I take life for granite

NO'.

So those of you new folks that feel you are not sick enough to post your

problems and get some answers, I been there in the past, and there are still

people sicker than I .

Again like said; come on in and let us get to know you....OK 

One can only fight, one second at a time, and one hill at a time. Just like a

boxing match one punch at a time .

May God Bless All and keep on going ..............    

Your Loving Friend GARY
