Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Pat, I was very lucky and had an excellent doctor. He diagnosed me immediately. My problems started after being treated by a real Rheumy. That's where my experience changed for the worse. I don't think I was treated aggressively enough, and just floated along, not knowing that the doctors were doing right or wrong. Thanks to this board and the wonderful people here, I've made a few decisions that have helped, but still need to convince my Rheumy to do something to make me better. He has an analogy he uses about Hitler and his Generals, but I think we've only beaten Gomer Pyle.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Dear Marina, You are right, love, prayers, and support of family and friends are very important always, but especially through difficult times. I really hate that she is going through this hurt and hope with help, she will become a stronger person in spite of this new roadblock. Thank you for your prayers Marina. Hugs, Pat (Kansas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
