Hi Cheryl, I'm Jo, my son Bayly is 5, but has showed signs of JIA from

about 6 months of age.

I'm sure you'll find the info and support you need here. It's a great

place to share, and there's always a shoulder if you need it.

Whereabouts are you? There are AJAO Chapters all over the US (we're in

Oz, by the way) which even from an outsider's experience, look like

awesome support systems!

Good luck,

Jo

Bayly, 5, extended oligo

Hello Cheryl,It is difficult receiving a diagnosis of JRA for one of our children, and perhaps more difficult dealing with the struggles to get/keep the disease under control. There are members here with a lot of wisdom and experience. This is a good place to ask questions, vent frustrations, seek reassurance about meds and treatments. It is encouraging to have others who understand what you are experiencing. Welcome. mom to , 17, polycrelaford <relaford@...> wrote: Hi. I'm Cheryl. Our son,

Cade (4 years old) was diagnosed with JRA last December. Though we think he has had the disease for a lot longer. It has been a real struggle this last year not being able to get his JRA under control. I'm looking forward to others in the same boat to share thoughts with. To tell you the truth, it will probably be theraputic for me! Have a great day! Thanks Cheryl __________________________________________________

[Guest guest]

Hi Jo,

Thank you for such a warm welcome. It has already helped reading everyone's comments.

We live in Sheridan, Wyoming. Cade's pediatric rheumatologist is at Children's Hospital in Denver, Colorado about 425 miles away. We are to see him next month for the third time. Hopefully while we are there he will have a nuerologic assessment done. Which I'm not sure what that is suppose to tell us or what it entails.

Cade was diagnosed with Poly last December, but an MRI in November pretty much told us. It effects most his joints (less one hip and his wrists). He has recently complained of neck and spine pain, and his cheeks burning and hurting. I suppose he has it about everywhere. I do so hope I am wrong. Cade doesn't have a lot of swelling, it is more pain and burning with stiffness mostly in his legs.

Cade was on naproxen and methotrexate injections. We just took him off the naproxen because he was having blurred vision and eye pain. Now he is having more dizziness, equilibrium problems, and just "feels bad". Oh... we had his eyes checked, they can find nothing wrong with them.

As far as an AJAO Chapter, there should be one in Denver or perhaps Montana. If anyone could help me with that I would greatly apprecitate it. I sure can use all the help and insight I can get.

Thanks so much!!! I look forward to getting to know you all better!

Cheryl (Cade 4 - Poly and Tyra 9)

disabil's hearingsHello all of you who are out fighting for the government to

give you something that is already yours---I fought for disability many years

ago and finally got it-- usually you are denied at least two times that I know

of --- the government tests your perserverence and their right to keep your

money, of course. After all who has more, you or them?Anyhow, have ALL paper

work in top notch order. If you use an attorney make sure he/she has ALL medical

records and Dr's reports, work related days of months out--- and if it is

through worker's comp, hang on for a longer duration.My disability hearing was

humiliating for it was for mental disease--- manic depression as it was termed

in those days--- and I could not walk from severe depression and was down to 90

pounds and cried all the time--- but a friend and I did the entire thing

alone--- no attorney and in 6 months( after being denied once) I was awarded

SSI--- which is basically what it is called. Social Security InsuranceDisability

which awarded me medical benefits and a small stipend for not being able to work

anymore. I get " better " from time to time but then I have a depressive episode

and it slams me down and takes me months to crawl back out.Now of course my

physical issues are beathiing out my mental problem. And they both are

interactive on each other. The cervical stenosis and ridiculopathy has made me

quite depressed.The " fight " is worth it if you know that you can never gain full

employment without any medical problems again. The hearing itself consisted of a

judge and he had a court appointed psychologist. I had a cache of records, many

statements from my DR, and years of evidence showing that I was not well. I was

turned down the first time but succeeded the second time. There was a year

interim and I was awarded that back money in one lump sum. They deposit the

Disability check into your account and they can check the amount anytime as in

an audit-- to see if you have no morethan you are supposed to-- for if they find

out that you have more than you ever stated under oath then they can penalize

you monetarily. Once you get disability and stay on it, you can only own a home

and car but not have life insurance or " work " to make extra monies unless you

want to be owing them for the money that you make over the stipend they expect

you to live on each month. I get 650 dollars a month and if I want,food

stamps---- but the best thing about SSI disability is that you receive medical

benefits as in medicaid and though it is socialized medicine and clinic settings

usually you do not have to pay for Dr's or your meds. Perhaps you might have a

small co pay.I don't know if this helps anyone--- I have such shame for what has

" happened " to me-- being ill whether it be physical or mental and not being able

to be a full participant in the life- system is an inflating failure for me,

personally. I used to be a professor and/but when I was diagnosed with

mycondition it finally explained what was " wrong " with me all my life. If my

testimony has offended any of you I am sorry, I thought that I would share with

you how disability insurance has helped me. I am so grateful and feel

blessed.Good luck to all of you and keep up the good fight.PS-- For the marine

a POW for 4 1/2 years in a JAP camp in the Philippines. He walked that terrible

I'm glad you checked in. I was hoping all is well with you since we have heard

from you in a while.. Hope Rob feels better soon. I'm sure this weird weather

is to blame. Hannah is picking up every bug going around.

Sending prayers & happy thoughts,

Beth :-)

hello

I've not been able to keep up with the list lately, but just wanted to let

everyone know that you have my prayers and support.

Rob has been sick and took himself to the ER Friday afternoon. He's feeling

better, but still needing his inhaler. I want to be 'helicopter mom' and drive

up there, but hubbie keeps insisting that he needs to handle this. He does sound

better tonight on the phone...though still worried he'll go into pneumonia that

he gets so easily. He is watching the Super Bowl with friends in the dorm as we

speak. He's been pretty stressed over school.

I've been working lots and dealing with our yo-yo weather...20' s and 30's one

day and snow/ice, 40's and 50's the next.

Take care everyone and wishing for all to have pain-free days!

This weather is crazy. We went from almost 50 last Tuesday morning to almost

zero by that evening. Wednesday the kids were off school because the temps were

-10 and wind chills were near -30. The next day wind chills improved and we got

5 inches of snow. Tonight and tomorrow we are supposed to get snow/rain mix.

No wonder Hannah keeps getting sick.

How have you been feeling?

Hi, . I hope that Rob is feeling better today. It is so hard to not

go up there, I know, but your hubby is probably right (don't have to let

him know that though in so many words LOL!) to wait and see how Rob

handles it on his own. If he sounds like he is not getting better keep

encouraging him to get checked out, and maybe make plans to go up for a

visit this weekend. You are right about the weather - I had to cancel my

planned trip to take mom to dr in Indy last Wednesday as it was like a

blizzard by us on Tuesday night and on Wednesday morning the roads by

her and through Indiana were so bad. This weather has been crazy!

On a quick side note - I just made an appointment for to go to an

adult rheumy!!! I also made an appt for my husband too. They are both

struggling and actually asked me to make the appts, which of course I

gladly did. as a new patient could not get in until March 17, but

Ed was able to get in on February 28. So I will be heading to the rheumy

on those days. Please keep praying that no one makes the decision to

cancel these appts. Hugs, Michele ( 20, spondy)

Hi, I am new to this group. My name is Branwyn and I have 3daughters. My oldest was fully vaccinated until she had a reaction atage 5 and that's when I started researching. Before that I had noidea that vaccines weren't mandatory and I let myself believe that thedoctor knew what was best. Now my 2 younger daughters have had novaccinations. Thank you for letting me join this group.Get trade secrets for amazing burgers. Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food.

Hi ,

I'm new here but I would be very surprized if anyone made

accusations to another about having a " pity party " . We all have pain

every day. Today is a bad day for me too. I had to take a couple of

percocets just to get out of bed today; must have slept in a bad

position. Then I had to come to work and sit all day. AARRGGHH!! At

least I have a good chair.

Happily, about 7 years ago I got my employer to start replacing all

the nasty chairs people were sitting in all day with ergonomic

chairs. I must say that 99.9% of the people who work here are very

happy with them. They have also allowed me to help set up

workstations so that people aren't going to hurt their necks and

shoulders trying to work. I've been able to get people who are on

the phone a lot headsets and people who spend all day on the

computer the right kind of equipment, for the most part. Sometimes

they don't want it though.

I hate seeing people reaching for their mouse when it should be next

to their keyboard, or looking way up at their monitor because they

have it on top of a stack of stuff. That is pain in the neck waiting

to happen. They have no idea what the pain will be like so they

chearfully mess themselves up! DUH!

No, , no one here is going to be nasty to you. Everyone here is

here to support each other.

Blessings,

Randy
