Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 " I totally get what you mean about your cousin whining about losing 40 lbs. HELLO! Unucurable disease here vs weight loss, hmmmmmm, DUH! Honestly, I get mad at stuff like that. I know they are just ignorant of our disease, but still it makes me mad. I get that all the time so I don't bother telling people what is wrong with me anymore because the minute you say you have arthritis they have it too, of course, it is probably osteoarthritis and I know that can be painful, but come on don't compare please; it drives me nuts. My favorite response is " take some ibuprofen or Aleve " . My dad said that one, nice huh? " Funnny! You're right and it happens to me when I am out in public too. A lot of people will be curious because I appear younger than my age but I am limping like I am 95. Then they will tell me they have the same thing. Okay, if you say so. I tried to respond before and lost the message so will try to keep it simple this time. I am glad things are better for you. Take care. peace and healing, Ebony in Atlanta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
