is doing okay. She finished the radiation on Friday. The doctors have to get together before they see her. She also has to have another MRI.

Haven't been on the computer much lately. I'm in a real bad flare. You would think with all the meds. I'm on something would help. My nose is so bad and my throat is flaring again. My husband, who usually does not say anything to me about how I look, admitted to me that my nose looks pretty bad. I've been flaring daily for 2 1/2 years now and I'm getting worn out. Just wish something would work.

Okay, I'm done complaining now.

How have you been feeling? Hope you are having some flare free days.

Love Ya,

Sandy

Hi Sandy, My Dad will be coming back to Cleveland Clinic this week for a checkup for a new kind of pacemaker. I wish I was able to come also. I could look you up. He only plans to be there overnight this time. So that wouldn't give me enough time to do other things. How is doing now? I'm praying she will recover and be just fine. Did they ever talk about doing the helmet radiation with her? How is Sandy feeling? Are your ears still hurting? You would think with all of the medication your doctors have you on, something would stop the pain. Don't they understand you hurt? I wish all doctors could understand this illness better, so we could get the kind of help we all need. Anyway, I just wanted to touch base with you. Please let me know how things are and how you are doing. Take care, Love you Lu DISCLAIMER!!WE ARE NOT MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS, THEREFORE ANY INFORMATION THAT IS RECEIVED HERE IS FROM EXPERIENCE ONLY. PLEASE CONSULT WITH YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE TRYING ANYTHING THAT IS SUGGESTED. WE ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR PHYSICIAN AND ARE NOT TRYING TO BE. REMEMBER EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT AND TREATMENT MAYBE DIFFERENT FOR MANY OF US. THANK YOU

Please keep us all posted on what Valarie finds out

from the MRI and the memory test. I am still sending

good thoughts and prayers your way.

I guess I am going to have to concentrate a little

harder with you. You are just not listening about the

no more flaring allowed!:o) Hope the med starts

kicking in soon. You have sure had your share of it

and more!

Know that you are in my thoughts often!

Lots of Love

Sandy,

Have you ever thought about that thing that P did with the massive

doses of Pred- IV?

You've got to stop the damage somehow that the RP is doing to your body.

Maybe you should discuss this with your doctor and with P too. I'm

sure she could give you lots of insight of it.

I worry so much about you. Please take care of yourself. I need you to make

me smile.

I know, I know, purely selfish reasons, but I can't help it. Please take

care.

W

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

My doc thinks I'm drug resistant.

The good side of that is I have no kidney or liver damage, the bad side is

they have no effect on the RP.

,

I mentioned the Pred. Pulse to my husband a few months ago and he wants me

to do it. I have not talked to my Rheumy about it yet

but I am sure my husband will bring it up. I start on 200 mg. of

Cyclosporine today, don't know if it will make a difference.

Next I try Cytoxan if this does not work. Thank God for Ultram, gets me

through the day.

> Sandy, No, she went to a Dr. at Kaiser which is a big HMO out

here. The clinic and hospital are at the same place. I will call

tomorrow for the test results and keep calling until I get an

answer. I will take her back if she is no better and see another dr.

I don't know if I'm going back on Imuran. No one ever called back.

LOL Don't you just love em!!!

Okay.....get ready Sandy.... I'm sending the heat...about 20 more

degrees for you.... Catch.

hugs

I'm not getting all my mail, so I have to go to the group site to

answer some mail. What's up with Yahoo?? Anyone know??
