i'm back

Hi guys. I have a minute today and just thought I would stop in. Becat, I love you! How sweet of you to think about me. I have been thinking about all of us lately. I am extremely tired. I think when I last was here I was bouncing back and forth between doctors. Well I am still doing that. My intern...

i knew it

Penguin, I knew you were a redhead. What else could explain that fiestyness? Well since that last post I went back and he said I more than likely have AS but it's still too early to see it in the x-rays. I have a straightening in my neck where it should be curved which explains muscle spasms or some...

hhmm

Squirmy, I have had problem periods since November-December that I have been to two different doctors for. My family prac could no longer figure out what was wrong, of course she did not even look at me other than from across the room. I went to a gyno last week because I have had very long 4-5 week...

I'm just a weirdo

Well I have to wait until the 25th to talk the the Rheumatologist but my blood work came back positive for HLA-B27. Which is from my symptoms, a sort of arthritis. The nurse said is it probably ankylosing spondylitis. Which explains all the weird pains I have. Some days are better than others and in...

makes sense

After thinking back on all the meds I have been given, Phenergen for severe nausea while pregnant( I just about jumped off the bed) they immediately gave me Benadryl which helped that, Um codeine, Oh man I thought I was just a wimp because it made me not feel good at all. Now I know to be more caref...

becat

You are the nicest person I have talked to. You are very sweet. Thank you for all the hugs I really need them. I got a copy of my x-ray faxed over from the docs office. I don't know what it means but it says I have 1.5mm Posterior Subluxation at c3/4. I guess that is what makes my neck hurt so bad. ...

babies

I am thinking it all started when I had my babies. I had to have two c-sections with epidurals. So I think that messing around with my spine did it. I was perfectly healthy before that definately. Now I am going downhill fast. But my mom also thinks it is from the epidurals and c-sections. Who knows...

I went to the rheumy yesterday. I was pleased. He listened to every word I said! He knew exactly what I was talking about. He didn't make me feel dumb at all. He took some blood which my family doc didn't take these tests, he did several x-rays of my back and neck because it has really been botherin...

hi guys

Just thought I would say a thing about that article. It doesn't say anything about those of us that have it all over, back, shoulders, arms and legs. Hmmmmm. Just a thought.

veins are hard for me too

I have had sooo many blood tests to see what the hell is wrong with me the last couple years, and every time no matter who it is, they can never get a good vein. I always have to have the butterfly in the hand after getting poked five or six times and having someone else try, blah blah blah. I guess...

hi honey

I haven't posted in a while and I actually have a minute today. Becat don't ever feel bad about feelings. Your body will build up and eventually explode. It's ok let it out. Run around screaming if it makes you feel better for a minute. I have to go outside to do it. Neighbors love it. But seriously...
