Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 Thank you Carol, I probably will be better in a few days. I hope you are feeling better. It is good to hear from you. Hugs Carolyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 :'o( aw Carolyn ( I'm so sorry to hear you had another fall!!! Yes falling is a pain I scare Nana often with my own falls, according to her lol I'm not a very graceful faller! LOL Please take care k and rest up if you can!!! I'm doing okay today breathing is bad but that was my fault lol we watched 'Americas Funniest Home Video's tonight and the laughing got me coughing bad and that made my breathing bad (lol gee I'm not even allowed to laugh lol ) ALL my monster animals are doing very well for the first time in MONTHS!!!!!! ) (quick knock on wood fast!!! LOL) Shane my bottle baby goat kid is now 4 months old and 3 months over due for being weaned but since he has to take daily meds i've kept him on the bottle since he will take just about anything from the bottle. It's also been VERY useful for medical exams and blood work and makes it MUCH easier for me to give him injection since you can do just about anything to him while he is drinking his bottle!!! LOL Well since he is 4 months old now the nipple he had for his bottle when he was a baby is WAY too small now so the other day I got him a bigger one while I was at the feed store he wouldn't even TRY the new nipple and the old one is just too small for him to get a hold of so he was one crabby baby because he WANTED a bottle but couldn't drink from the old nipple and wouldn't even try the new one!!!!!!!! Tonight I brought him inside (he still sleeps in a crate next to my bed so I can keep an eye on him at night! over protective...nah! lol) and he was SO ready for a bottle that he drank from the new nipple ) he even had TWO bottles (it's just water and meds lol hasn't had milk since he was a bit over a month old)!!! At first taking care of 12 animals was SO draining (it didn't help that 6 of the 12 were tiny babies!!!!!!!!) but it is getting a lot easier now!! Nana had said when we were still in Ca that she'd let me get a donkey when we got out here(i've always liked donkeys!). Well after we got all the animals we have now and they were taking their toll on me so bad nana said that a donkey was OUT of the question, now she is saying that if I can handle it was well as I am now all through winter that next year I can raise another bottle baby( if one is rejected like Shane was) and I can have a donkey (so long as I pay for it and build another shelter) ) Well I better get. Hope you start feeling better soon!!! take care k! ( *)= { ~~ ) Jmducky@... -Jessi " Too often we give children answers to remember rather than problems to solve.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 I am rediscovering the joy of e-mailing again since I changed my address carolyn. Somehow I got in a loop where I was getting 50-100 korean e-mails a day and trying to work with juno tech support did not do any good at all. it was difficult to weed out list mail from all of that esp since i have imparied eyesight. So much better now. take gentle care. carol On Sat, 13 Jul 2002 00:33:04 EDT Faulkncs@... writes: > Thank you Carol, I probably will be better in a few days. I hope > you are > feeling better.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2002 Report Share Posted November 11, 2002 I hope they get you figured out Soon!!! You have a safe trip and try to have some fun!!! Love Helen I'm still really behind on mail I have a whole folder of emails I need to reply to I'll get to them as soon as I can!!! I hope everyone is okay with all the storms that went though!! Let us know when you all can!! I saw my GP today but it was one of those appointments that when it's over you sit there and think "and we came...why..." doesn't seem like anything was done or happened. Just had blood taken and got a note for the air lines about my neb, epipen, pump and stuff. I leave for Ca on Friday and wont be back until Wed night. I'm going to be meeting with my doctor there for lunch or something and we are going to talk about what she thinks should be done next and when I get back I'll talk to my GP about it. She wants me to go to the Mayo Clinic but I'd have to go alone and I don't want that!! well i better get! Take care k! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2003 Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 Granted Lee, but one mistake does not make a hospital. Student doctors have to get their 1st year residency and so on, where else, I do agree that they should not be allowed to work unsupervised and it is the patiens choice not to let them be present.

You are awfully young for all of this, unfortuneately RA isn't always age friendly. Feeling like you fell out of a plane is really crappy and I understand where you are coming from. Do you have children? Do you have a good doctor? Do you feel like your are getting any support from your friends or family? It all figures in! I sure hope that today is a good day for you and I'm glad that you are here! XXX's Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Thank You for the warm welcoming! Yes, I have a little boy and I am a single parent. My Job is very physical and fast paced, so its hard to deal with sometimes. But at the same time it provides good health insurance and decent pay, so Im thankful for that. I assume I have a good Doctor, dont know much about the in's and out's of RA. Started off taking Methotrexate, prednisone. Worked wonders. Though had alot of side effects. Stopped taking for a few weeks about a month ago, just started back on the methotrexate. Having alot of flare ups lately though, kinda scary. Cant really afford the other meds right now. Go back to the doctor Monday, so will see what they have to say. My family and friends support me, but its hard to talk to them about it because to them I look fine, so they assume I am ok. Its been tough coming to terms with it all. Today was a great day, I hope yours was as well. Thank you for your support. God knows i need it.
