Help needed!!

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone. Thank you again for all the responses I received

when I last posted about the painful nodules and the leg swelling. I

had one thank you message returned (Korea) so again thank you so

much. My SD seems to be getting worse because I continue to have

problems with the swelling and the pain in my feet and lower legs

even when I first get up in the mornings. I've been working on

trying to get the IV treatments. Dr. Franco in CA send me the RX

for the IV's but now I'm trying to get

a home health service to administer the IV's. The

only co. that my insurance might possibly cover

doesn't come to my hometown. So I asked Dr. Franco

about the injections so that I could possibly

administer them myself. Anyway to make a long story

short I seem to be playing a waiting came. I ask Dr.

Franco questions and it takes about a week for an

answer. Things are moving very slowly and during this

waiting game I am suffering quite a bit. I'm really

becoming scared now because of the pain and swelling

in my feet and lower legs. I still have the erethyma

nodosum and I'm just miserable. I feel that while I'm

waiting my body is being further damaged and I feel

helpless. Is there something I should be doing while

I wait. I often wonder if I'm not seeing something

that I could be doing. Any advice would be helpful.

Could I be possibly eating something that is

triggering the swelling? I'm starting to be concerned about

something possibly going on with my kidneys. Thanks, Debra
