Still new to this

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

Just got back from my doctor appointment I told him how the weekend before

Thanksgiving I went to the ER I felt like I was kicked in the chest and then

later that day my arm was hurting.

He looked at me and said it is your RA-I said how pain in my chest he

reached over and pressed on the spot on my chest which gave me the same pain

just not as strong but really hurt. Then he checked my feet, they do know what

spot to hit which makes me want to hit him and my shoulders are really bad.

He add to my hydroxychloroquine 200 mg. with sulfasalazine 500 mg. I don't

know if it is all in my head but 45 minutes my shoulders felt better I can sit

with out my arm aching so much that I can't sit still. I still feel it if I

raise my arm which I am not allowed to do any shoulder raises with weight, yes I

work out with weights since I ride horse I need the strength but no more. I am

going to try to drink more water he is great he understands my thyroid problem

since he has the same thing so he takes care of my meds. I use to have to drive

an hour and a half to get to a doctor that would give me Armour but not now.

He is 15 minutes away and takes care of my everyday stuff too. I see what

will be down the road in his waiting room I want to hug them and say I am so

sorry this sucks but they are in such pain some of them.

Sorry to go on I didn't realize how much pain I was in until this pill it

took the edge off pretty quickly. Even if it is all in my head that this pill

worked so quickly let it last please!

Plus my father is in North Carolina, this year he had prostrate surgery due

to cancer well he got through that great. He has been having diarrhea and

losing alot of weight no doctor could find it finally a specialist that did his

prostrate surgery recommend a doctor and they are doing test today I am having a

hard time getting through this day. You see my mother died of Cancer 5 weeks

after they found it I saw her in the hospital the first two weeks, I live in

Missouri so I had to come home for a couple weeks the week before I was to go

back home she passed away. I miss her so much at Christmas time she love

Christmas so so much now her I sit waiting for another call.

Thank you all for being out there no one understand how some days I am

scared, made or just hurting.
