all kinds of symptoms

[Guest guest]

hey all--well it looks like we have a little disturbance heading our

way--to any that dont know i am in louisiana--please say a prayer

that we dont get hit again--i am not in new orleans but closer to

the gulf of mexico--anyway to get to my questions--i would like to

know if there are any of yall that have experienced extremely

chapped lips, very sore and tender areas in the mouth especially

along the gums, underneath the tongue and the palate area?--also if

any of yall get rashes under the breast area--they dont itch but

just purplish colored rashes?--i see my rhemy on friday and i plan

on bringing him a brochure that i received from bob--i sure hope he

is open minded enough to read it through--several of my friends have

read it and stated " wow becky are you sure they didnt get this info

from you? " lol--another question is do any of yall get nauseated

from taking so many meds?--right now i am on 12 different meds--ok i

guess i have more than a couple things to ask lol--have any of yall

suffered from severe depression or even bi-polar disorder from

this?--i guess i have so many questions and i dont want to take time

from others with messages or questions--i would like to take more

time to devote to this site but lately it has been drs appts after

drs appts and when i am not in an appt i am in bed--do any of yall

suffer from " isolation " periods?--i was an extremely social,

independent, outgoing person before all of this happened to me--

right now my rhemy is saying i have fibromyalgia but that i also

have mixed connective tissue disorder/auto immune disorder--he did

say he did not want to rule out stills or lupus--my immunologist on

the other hand feels like we are dealing with stills or a strong

possibility of lupus--again i am very confused and i believe that is

where a lot of the depression comes in--to those of you that read my

post about me going through gastric bypass well it has been a

success--so far i have lost 130lbs--yes the weight coming off has

been great but i will tell yall like my surgeon told me " it will not

cure you " --put it this way i am not so scared anymore if i have to

take steroids by pill or injections because i know i wont gain the

tons of weight again--can i walk better now? yes i can but i am

starting to have more problems with my left knee and every now and

then my right--it seems that majority of my problems are on my left

side--well i am sure i gave yall an ear full so far and i hope if

any of yall have time yall could possibly give me a few comments or

so--wishing you all well and God bless yall

becky
