Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 GET OUT OF TOWN. Yes..I remember the ankle pain SO clearly. Didn't even tell my Dr. I was on Prednisone and just thought it was the cause. Love and Prayers, Peggy 9/04 ipf In the early stages of IPF, were any of you prescribed Levaquin for possible pneumonia? If so, did you experience any adverse reactions such as pain in the joints, especially in the ankles? Thanks for any response. Clif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Well, me too! My right ankle has been hurting, as has my elbow, finer, and shoulder. I went off of Pred...but, I didn't take as long as I guess I should have. My pulmo Peggy wrote: GET OUT OF TOWN. Yes..I remember the ankle pain SO clearly.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 , You are such a good mom. It is important that the school does not let Ashli slip behind. There are lazy teachers, just like we say about docs. What is so sad is that an entire year is lost. One of our grandaughters got so far behind during one school year. We put into a Sylvan Learning Center for a year to get caught. And you know that teacher that did not do her job still got paid! Hope little Nick feels better. Be careful of thier bugs! Don't be nervous about the evaluation. Count it as a blessing to be able to have acess to such sophisticated testing and top of the line doctors. You don't have to agree to anything, just get the info. You have done great pursuing medical help. Your curious mind will be what saves you!!!
