It's been very informative...nice to hear all the input. By the way, Drew has just recently been mainstreamed into a regular preschool now. Amazing! It's going well so far. I haven't mentioned to the teachers that he has ASD and hyperlexia yet, and I don't think they'll ever figure it out. Well, they'll discover that he can read... I hope you're doing well. I know you're loving that new dog of yours! He's really cute, and I hope your kids are enjoying him too. I'll see ya soon, Christie Becky wrote: > > Welcome Ross!

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Well my doctor told me that the last ultrasound showing my cysts on my liver is different from this new ultrasound, it is not in the sam eplace as my cysts.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hemangiomas on the liver are very rarely a problem except large ones in infants. Doubtful your pain is from one. You probably have gallbladder pain from congestion. Since the spot is different from your cyst it is a very good idea to have the CT.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Kerri, The more information and support you can get early on should be helpful with some of the way you are feeling. Please try to learn as much as you can about BPES through your doctor(s), the internet and this group. Remember that you are not alone on this journey and that armed with good medical information and with the love and support of your family it can be a positive one. My daughter is 18 and is in her first semester at college. She is the only person on both sides of the family to be born with BPES. When she was born, I knew something was different as far as her eye structure and with her ability to open her eyes but the pediatrician told me to relax and give her time to recover from the delivery process. I continued to push with questions until I asked my son's ophthalmologist a couple of questions regarding my concerns about my daughter's " sleepy " look. (Whenever we were out in public, people always commented about how sleepy she looked due to her eye structure and the way her eyelids opened only halfway. I was also asked if her father was Asian a few times-he is not.) This doctor showed me pictures in a medical book that helped me begin to understand that what we were living with was an eye disorder that could be corrected if needed—which it was due to her lack of lid muscle tone and amblyopia. She also referred us to an ophthalmic plastic surgeon that performed lid surgeries when my daughter was 18 months and 2 years old. At the time of her initial diagnosis and treatment, the Internet was not what we know it to be today. I have felt very alone and unprepared/uneducated about what to do for my child. Since then, we moved from Texas back to the Midwest and the only follow up care has been yearly eye exams to keep her eyeglass prescriptions up to date. Initially, my daughter wore single vision glasses, and then quickly moved into bifocals. She continues to be a joy and an immense source of pride to us. We are starting to work through some additional medical issues that may or may not be associated with BPES and some of these medical concerns may have been things that we should have been working through as she grew up but our home life has been basically a happy one and school was always a place where she excelled academically. I know that she has been teased occasionally about her eyes but to the best of our abilities, we have always provided a supportive, safe, loving and respectful environment for her to grow up in. Take care. > > Hello, I am a new member. I have just learned that my 3 month old > daughter has BPES. That is about all I know.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hi Mike and welcome. Are you seeing a rheumatologist yet? That is essential to good management. Make a couple of appointments and find a doc you really like and trust. Don't make any career decisions until you have a good treatment plan. Once you find the right drugs, there is a great chance you can figure out how to do the work you love. I've been diagnosed since Dec 06 but symptomatic since 1998. I'm on Enbrel and prednisone. Best wishes, Kate F [ ] hello hi, my name is mike, and i am new to the group. i recently was sent to a rheumatoligist concerning swelling in my joints. i was given a few shots and told to go back every week. i have been off work since dec 17th from this and it worries me. i have cut me for a living the last 15 years, and was cosidered by my peers to be quite good at what i do . have been asked to fulfull specialty orders especially around the holidays. now i cant hold a knife. i have enjoyed my career and am worried if i will be able to function my job ever again. the dr told me to start thinking about another career , which scares me, was always told to be happy with what you do or dont do it. i dont know quite what to do. ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Looking for last minute shopping deals?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hi Mike, I was diagnosed in November at a point when my hands were so inflamed that I could not hold eating utensils, use a knife, pen, or type. My feet, ankles, and knees made it very difficult for me to walk. I'm a good example of what the right medications for the right person can do. My inflammation is almost completely under control with Methotrexate. I am able to walk normally and can do most things with my hands again. They are still a little weak and painful at times but vastly improved and still improving. All of this to say " do not lose hope! " . With the right medications it's very possible that you will see improvement and be able to go back to your career. Seek out a good rheumatologist if you haven't already found one. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hi Sharon. Thanks for responding. I was just looking to chat with people who are coping with RA or Fibromyalgia, I have both. I was diagnosed over ten years ago with RA. It's moderately progressive. I have been on lots of meds, before trying biologics seven years ago. I started with Enbrel, which worked for five years. Then, I went on Humara, which caused kidney infections. I am now on Orencia. Orencia is working great for me. I have had joint damage, basically from the early years when I wasn't on the right medication. I have a great Dr. I am having foot surgery this month to correct a bunion and hammer toe-not looking forward to it or the recovery. What about yourself? Love to hear from you, Tricia [ ] Re: Hello > > Looking to find a support group online. Please email. > > Thanks > Tricia Hi Tricia I just read your post and wanted to welcome u.
