Guest guest Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 Connie, I got your email three times, guess your finger slipped, huh? Anyway, on your butt, huh? I got it on the front of both ankles. However, at that time, no one believed it was here on the west coast, so I had trouble getting dx'd. Of course, I already had been dx'd with RA, SLE (suspect), Sjogren's (suspect), fibromyalgia (not yet chronic and acute myofibrositis), and non-insulin diabetes, so, they were sure it was just another manifestation of the autoimmune disorders. After four years of trying to get a dx, they finally tested me for Lyme's. Of course, it had been two years since the bites (no ticks left on me) and bullseye rashes before I even tried to get a dx, so add four years of wrong dx's to that and I was a chronic case, and pretty far gone. Does yours come and go, too? MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 MM, I was camping -- it was on my butt, ahhh - Giggle. I had a bulleye which I noticed right away, watched it 2 or 3 months. They did the blood test and I got my dx. The hospital about went into shock when Crystal handed them my list of medications and dx she said. They all people should understand, life 101. I actually went to hospital in OH and they told me I was to sick and refused to treat me. All I had was a cut on my finger which was inflamed. Gentle healing hugs, Connie Re: MM Connie, How did...or I should say, where did you contract Lyme's? I got it camping onthe California north coast almost twelve years ago. It took six years to diagnose, soit is now chronic, and comes and goes like Lupus does. I think the list of what I DON'Thave is shorter.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2003 Report Share Posted May 31, 2003 I printed it out... and gave it to my pain doc..she got a big kick out of it.. I keep one in my purse all the time. Re: MM , Just remember, as our fearless leader, Deanna, says: God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can,and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the doctors I killed who said it was "all in myhead".

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2003 Report Share Posted June 10, 2003 Can you tell me how to make Pesto ? Been wanting to kow this for years!~ Becky minniemyno@... wrote: Hi, gang. Normi (one of our old members who is taking a break from the group for a bit) asked me for some recipes, again, and I had just tried this new combination at our house and she loved it. I thought you all might be interested, so here it is: Shrimp Pasta Ingredients: 8 oz. large, frozen, cooked, clean shrimp, tails off 8 oz. frozen broccoli florets 4 oz. prepared pesto sauce 1/2 Cup minced Italian parsley 2 Italian pear tomatoes, chopped 1 T minced garlic 2 T olive oil 4 oz. sharp shredded Italian cheese (Parmesan, Asiago, Romano) salt and pepper to taste 16 oz. linguini In large saucepan or saute pan, gently saute garlic in the olive oil. Add pesto sauce, parsley and tomatoes. Turn heat off. In large pot, bring 6 quarts salted water to a rolling boil. Cook linguini 7 minutes, add frozen broccoli and shrimp to the pot and cook until pasta reaches al dente' stage. Remove from heat and drain. Place in large bowl, pour sauce over it, then sprinkle cheese over all and toss gently. Serve warm with salad and bread, if desired. Makes 4 generous servings. Hope you enjoy this. We loved it, and all those who have tried it think it's great.
