Guest guest Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Hey , Try calling your Dr. this morning and telling them what your feeling. Maybe they could work you in sooner. All anti-inflamatories cause me to SWELL so I can't tale any more. My body feels like its on fire from the inside out. Pain meds help though. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hang in there and vent on us when you need to. Deta >From: N2kids@... >Reply- > >Subject: [ ] Help!

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 , please call your rheumatologist. If he knows about the situation and his position is that he won't see you or help you, even by phone, for three weeks, it's time for a new rheumatologist. Not an MD [ ] Help!

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 , You need to try and get in to the rheumy early. I don't see how your making it without your meds, three weeks is a lifetime without them!!! It's so hard to be in pain ALL the time, and to take care of your kids, you need some help. I will keep you in my prayers, and hope you can get in to see your doc sooner, Tawny - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basicallly pleaded with her to give me something or at least let me take darvocet. She agreed (unwillingly i think) because i have the kids to take care of ect.I couldn't take it this morning being i had to get my son to school so i took 10 mg from my stash of prednisone...Bad yes but things HAVE to be done. cant say " oh i can barely walk so you cant go to school today Zac sorry. " that wont ever happen as long as i'm breathing. Today was somewhat bearable so hopefully tomorrow will be better. HUGS to you all and thanks again! in PA ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 ((())),......I'm glad you have the stash. The rheumy should understand you have children who need you. I hope between the Prednisone and Darvocet, you can make it until your appointment. You take care, and know you and the family are in my prayers, Tawny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
