Hey, it's not just jealousy, Mel, (although there is THAT, too). It's that Tammy did the neener, neener, neener thing with her cookies! First I have to miss the koalas, the party, the meeting, now the COOKIES, and let us not forget the PROTEIN CAKE! Arrrrgghhh! It's a conspiracy (but you are welcome to join my pity party, if you'd like)! LOL (Maybe we should have them pack up care packages for all of us who can't attend -- gee, do you think express mail would be too much to ask for?) Teeheeheehee Hugs and blessings, Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Jen, I never put the correlation between two different auto-immune disorders until seeing my doctor for some really bad allergies 2 summers ago. Told him that because I was outside more that summer, from taking the public transportation instead of driving, I was really getting hit hard by the allergies. He asked me about my AS and back pain. Told him that it was really hurting too, but thought that it was from over-activity from busing it to and from everywhere. He said that since they were both auto-immune disorders, they were feeding off each other, so to speak, when one was bad, the other one could be expected to be bad as well. Sure enough, I started paying attention to my allergies and arthritis and they seem to act together. It isn't always, but it is often enough that I notice the relationship. (speaking of relationships - Thanks Dad for these genes you gave me for AS, Allergies and ADHD!) LOL **sorry - had to toss in the joke, because without laughter, there is only pain, and laughter can sometimes alleviate the pain enough to make it tolerable. ) Oh, and a note on Fibro.. there are some doctors that are thinking that there is a strong link between Fibro, especially those dealing with " Fibro-Fog " and undiagnosed ADHD(inattentive), particularly in women. The reason they are finding the link as a plausible connection was because the ADHD meds like Adderall and Strattera were alleviating the " Fibro-fog " symptoms and some of the achy feeling. Just some food for thought, and it may not even be the case in your circumstance. I do find it interesting though, that all of my issues may be inter-related, even setting aside the genetics of it all. -- Talk to you later, Kat Pics of my family and critters: http://photos./katcha777 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Kat, I'd never thought that there would be a relationship either, or that one auto-immune disorder could trigger another one, until I read that book. It sure was a wake-up call! As for the ADHD-Fibro link, I hadn't heard of that. I do know that some doctors use drugs like Strattera and Adderall when a Fibro patient has extreme daytime fatigue, but the fatigue and Fibrofog aren't the same thing. I don't believe there is a real " link " between the two. If someone has Fibro as well as ADHD, that it would be mere coincidence. I didn't develop any cognitive or memory problems until after I developed Fibro, but I wouldn't say I have any problems " paying attention " . It's more like I have a problem remembering things, or I " forget " to do stuff. Still, it's definitely something I will do some research on.
