Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 , So sorry to hear that you are having such a rough time. You'd think we'd all be pickled by now from all the medications. Hang in there. We're here if you need us. > Okay I'm home! First thing: 1) lung infection. 2) need to see a surgeon for the pinched nerve. 3) kidneys are messed up. 4) lungs are messed up. > The methotrexate is being lowered because of the kidneys. I am waiting for a referral to be sent to the neurological surgeon. I have to get an antibiotic for my lungs and he also gave me a new inhaler. It's called Q Var. I take that with the advair. The dr said he could hear me breathing across the room when he walked in. I have a bunch of more blood work and pee work to be done, I need to get a brace that has gel in it for my elbow, he said just having it lay on a table is hurting it. MMMM lets see, I go back in 2 months to see him, sooner if the breathing gets worse. Can't think of anything else at the moment. If I do I will let you know. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 , boy you've been busy. All that in one day? You sure have been busy. Is the kidney problem a result of the medication? You say you have a lung infection and that your lungs are messed up? What does that mean? I mean I know what an infection is, but what else is messed up with them. I'm not even going to question the pinched nerve..... Gosh woman, can't leave you alone for a minute, or you get yourself into trouble. Take care and feel better. Keep us updated.
