Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Hey Tawny, Can relate to you that the waiting is the worst part. I remember it well. Try to keep your mind busy and think positive. You are in my prayers. Judith Ann Tawny <tawnyokc@...> wrote: Hey everyone, Just checking in to let you know haven't heard anything on the lab work yet. I am getting a little anxious, trying to keep myself from worrying, but you know how that is. I am also waiting on the mammogram appointment, will try to find out something tomorrow. I am in some terrible pain right now. I am having problems walking, so I am beside myself right now. I just want to be normal, I just have to get it through my thick skull, I'm not. It's hard sometimes, you look around everyone is having a good time, and then here you are. Does it ever get any better, I ask myself all the time. I will keep you posted my friends, Tawny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I finally got through to a answering machine. It stated it could take up to a week before anyone would get back with you, isn't that ridiculous! I did talk to a receptionist, I told her I needed lab results. She asked me when my next appointment is scheduled, and I told her July. I told her that someone was suppose to call about the mammogram appointment, she stated leave a message on the answering machine,.... I will let you know, if I hear anything, Tawny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 HI TAWNY, I REALLY HEAR YOU. MY BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE SAME THING, I CAN NOT GET IT THROUGH MY HEAD THAT I AM NOT NORMAL AND WALKING IS SO HARD THAT WHEN I CAN I GO NUTS AND THE NEXT 2 DAYS HAVE TO REST AND RECOVER. I THINK WHEN I'M NOT IN EXTREME PAIN THE RA IS GONE AND I'M HEALED. I JUST GOT MY LABS A FEW HOURS AGO AND MY C-REACTIVE IS BACK UP TO 2.0. SIX WEEKS AGO IT HAD GONE DOWN TO 1.3. SO HERE WE GO AGAIN. MY RHEUMOTOLOGIST TOLD ME YESTERDAY DURING MY EXAM THAT HE THOUGHT MY RA WAS HOLDING. BOY, WAS HE WRONG. HE EVEN CUT MY PREDNISONE IN HALF, AND KEPT MY INJECTIONS OF METHOTREXATE THE SAME. GOOD LUCK TO YOU TAWNY - PACE YOURSELF - THE HARDEST THING FOR ALL OF US IS ACCEPTING THAT WE HAVE THIS " THING.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Judith Ann, I am doing alright, just trying to stop hurting so much right now. This goes on quite a bit, I don't think the Humira is really helping me much right now. Thanks so much for your prayers, Tawny > Hey everyone, Just checking in to let you know haven't heard anything > on the lab work yet.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Hi Cindi, Sorry to hear your lab results, it really frustrating,I know. Is he thinking about putting you on Biologic Response Modifers(BRM)that might be the next step for you, Cindi. I know you don't won't to hear it, but we all go down the same road. I have tried so many different meds, and they didn't work at all. The Humira seems not to be working now, so here I go again. Life is so unfair at times, but hey we got each other, take care Tawny > Hey everyone, Just checking in to let you know haven't heard anything > on the lab work yet.
