Guest guest Posted February 12, 2002 Report Share Posted February 12, 2002 Lynn, I've come across a few things that have said one should be very cautious about going on Pred if one has a tendency towards swelling in legs..... I also have an email friend in Germany( a young veterinarian) who has PM and had 2 strokes this past year.) Ask you doc to find out more??? And yes, stay off that foot. Teddi, you poor girl! May that blasted bug go away and stay away. Vicki, thanks for that eye-opening site- yikes is right! Also, you are a " glutton for punishment. " Gluten is found in wheat. LOL. You make me smile.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2002 Report Share Posted February 12, 2002 thanks, ...ick!! I'm going to do some searching about Pred and DVTs. Just got back from having the PT/INR done (needed daily) and I'm still not at therapeutic levels, so I'm staying home tomorrow again. Calf just doesn't feel right, plus I'm getting pain in the upper thigh where the muscle goes up into the hip. And I learned I'm very anemic...no surprise, I can barely sit here and type, really bad form for carpal tunnel..lol... Watching ice skating...Plushenko is on now...I like the other guy...what a great skate he had!!

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2002 Report Share Posted February 12, 2002 Oh, I told 'em, Ed, but they just " hmmmm'd " me and that was that. If I can wake up in time to call the rheumy tomorrow a.m., I shall and see what she might say. Is yours in the front of the thigh or the back? Mine is more in the back. So, let's go find a piece of chocolate and say the heck with it for tonight! Lynn --- bmcm_eod wrote: > I get pain in my upper thigh where it goes into the > hip too.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2002 Report Share Posted February 12, 2002 Lynn What a shock when Plushenko fell on his quad.....really opens the door for a medal for Gabble. Have to feel sorry for Todd Elredge and Elvis ......30 is getting too old for the body to do the jumps the younger skaters are doing. USA did quite well in the 500 meter speed skating Yah!!!

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2002 Report Share Posted February 13, 2002 I felt bad for Eldredge too. Wanted him to finally get that gold. I feel awful for the Canadian pair skaters. It seems everyone agrees that they should of come in first, but the way they have handled themselves shows they are true champions.
