Guest guest Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Oly, Ouch!!! for the tooth pulling. Just did that and I was a big baby. I hate to get in that dentist chair. It really didn't hurt, but I was a nervous wreck. Have they said that your lung disease is directly related to RA? I test positive for RA also, along with about 3 other autoimmune disease. All which can cause fibrosis. At biopsy they told me that the fibrosis was secondary to Lupus. The docs have been agressive in treatment and here I am 10 years later. Not in great shape, but here. Glad you got approved. Takes a load off. Will you get back pay?
