Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Hi folks, Talked to my rheumy today. I'm not going to be allowed to go on Humira or back on Enbrel because of my MS dx. I'm pretty sad that it has come to this Conflicts between what would help me with one disease versus hurting another. I'm pretty frustrated. I've never tried MTX because I already have a sensitive liver. Benign-appearing medications sometimes raise my liver enzymes. So....I just don't know what will happen. My skin is pretty bad again. For the first time in my life I'm starting a lesion on my face, just below my right eye. I'm trying to stay positive, but this is really dragging me down. To top it off I have to have a lumbar puncture next week as part of the whole MS dx. Ack! Jayson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Brent, You are Awesome! You have such a way with words. Becky _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of skrewtz Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 7:57 PM Subject: [ ] Re: ] Humira Hi Jayson, I am so sorry to read what is happening for you. It sucks! I had a great university professor who was retiring. He said he would postpone his retirement or even come back out of retirement for a person who wanted to do a doctoratal study on the power of prayer. He quoted a couple of studies that had been done whereby people had prayed for people that they didn't even know - sometimes whole continents away. The people doing the praying didn't necessarily have to believe in any religion, nor did the person for whom the prayers had been made. Anyway, the survival rate was much much higher for cancer patients linked to prayers. He found it fascinating - and so do I, and if I didn't get psoriatic arthritis, I may have done my doctorate. I am not a religious man, but in the spirit of a doctorate I would have liked to have done, I will say a prayer for you tonight and tomorrow and everyday for a long, long time. I encourage others here to do the same. Keep writing to tell us how you are. Bye Jayson ... Brent _____ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Hi Zoella, To you I send a great big virtual Yorkshire hug. This is indeed different to a normal hug as it can be felt over the internet, it knows no boundaries, you only have to ask other people to know that this is true. My thoughts and prayers are with you also and I hope that you will feel them too. Keep the light shining, Ian. > > , > Thank you for the email. Yes, they gave me some good pain meds ! lol I know i am not spelling this right but hydrocoton [Editor's Note: hydrocodone] and then the other day they gave me vicaton. [Editor's Note: hydrocodone is the generic form of Vicodin]. still have pain tho. lol > be so careful to all about the light treatments tho. i have cancer reoccuring on my nose and next week going for a surgery named Mohs. For the past 2 days my inside of my nose is bleeding. It is not a nose bleed but a continue of blood droplets . Really has me worried because of the cancer and not sure as to how big the tumor is yet. Any prayers are welcomed here please. I know there are so much more out there that is worse but my body is so tired of fighting all my illness I am going thru for all my life.
