Someone needs help bad! Any ideas? Please read!

December 17, 2006

Copied from lupus group, not good! Any advice? If needed forward this

person needs help!

Yes, I am alive. Once again on prednisone. I don't know what to do at

this point. My Internist is great...great, he is the one who diagnosed

me with Lyme disease. I know I had 3rd stage L.D. because of the

repeated test results and of course sympthoms (diagnosed in Oct 99) in

01 Dr. M sent me to the R.M. for a consult for joint pain and tests

showed a high ANA panel. He said the both side pain, test results etc

suggested Lupus. A friend (long distance friend)insist that the

late lyme persist.RM insist its lupus,F.M.S. & C.F.S. Orthopedist

insist its O.A. God I am confused! I have to say even though the

prednisone uuuu makes me irritable, more depressed etc, it does make

the sympthom better.

When I had the shot instead of oral I felt so well for a couple of

weeks. Coinsident?? ? What to do..what to do???? Now on the Prednisone

x 5 days I am pain free and the weird horrible strokelike symptoms are

gone, of course I could bite a nail into!!!! And hungrey!!! OMG! I am

also very, what my daughter calls, " antsy " can't sit still or sleep.

But hey...better than not feeling like getting out of bed.

I am going to call and request an appointment with Dr. M tommorow

and see what tests need to be done. Maybe a specilist? What kind?

<confusion sets in> Oh my poor...poor brain!

Much well wishes your way, and has anyone heard from Mitsy? Love to

all, your Dizzy, Lymie, KY friend, Bre

I am scared of myself at this point. I mean I know I want committ

suicide, but Thats all I can think about, is death. I am a Social

worker, was, now on SSD, and I know even the strongest minds can snap.

Antidepressants, tried alot of different, either did not help or make

it worse. Oh! I just don't know what to do. I know boo hoo...I am so

sorry.
