Daughter with Stills

[Guest guest]

My daughter, , is almost certainly flaring again. She can barely

move and it hurts to even hold anything or walk. I'm going to have to

take her to the Ped. Rhem. tomorrow for sure. I'm so scared of what

they'll say. Last time she had a bad flare she was on Steroids for a

year and a half and still has the side effects from it. She's on

Methotrexate and Remicade now. She nearly doubled her weight last time

she was on Pred. She still has osteoporosis and her B.P. was nearly

twice what it should have been. I took her B.P. every eight hours for

nearly a year. I feel so sorry for her. What all have you tried and do

any of you have JRA? Thanks for any help or advice you can give me.

Missy,

I am seeding prayers and healing thoughts for . Seeing a child

sufer is horrible. I don;t have any advice as I was an adult when Dx'd

but just wanted you to know that I hope she feels better soon.
