Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Carly, Congratualtions on your engagment!! He sounds like a keeper!! ~tricia~ -- Some good news! I know you all are just getting to know me but I wanted to share some more good news with you. I just got engaged 3 days ago! My fiance's name is Dave and he's living in Sacramento, CA for the summer (while I'm in Utah). He will graduate with a Master's in Public Administration in April 2003. We're planning on getting married August 24th. He is so good to me and is always looking out for me. I'm fairly high functioning right now and haven't had any severe disease activity since we met, but he's always very concerned about keeping me out of the sun because of the medications, making sure I get plenty of rest and has assured me that if I have fertility problems or just can't get off of the Methotrexate, he would love to have a family of adopted children with me. Isn't he just the sweetest? Anyway, I'm a bit giddy and excited and wanted to share it with all of you. I hope you're all having a good day and you're all in my prayers. Love, Carly __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Go Go Kate! How exciting for you. I hope you learn quicker than I did on " poking " yourself. I just did it this morning and I still, after a year on Enbrel, get butterflies in my tummy. I tried being a nurse in my younger days but walked out when the cat dissection was required. I probably could have never given injections either. I did not do well on just plain old Enbrel. It took MTX as a kicker so keep that in mind although some of us do fantastic on just the Enbrel itself. Good luck with it and do keep us posted on how you are feeling with it. After the three months is up, do you have to start paying for it or will you always be an " experimental " patient? ) xxoo Ca.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Dear Kate, I am deeply happy for you friend. I wait here, as you did and I am still waiting for my first dose. I am so happy that this day has finally come for you Kate. Let us know how you are doing friend. Good luck tomorrow. Love.Sue #2 -- Re: Some Good News! Kate, I could not be happier for you. The very best of luck and nice that you like the new team. Here's to feeling better soon, Melt Some Good News! > Tomorrow I will be getting my first dose of Enbrel!

Carmen > Thanks Carmen! I kind of felt bad having good news on such a sad day. I will stay on the plaquenil while on the enbrel, at least for now. My hope is that the enbrel will work well enough that I will be able to drop it. After the 3 months I have to go through my regular insurance with Walgreens which covers it at the non-formulary co-pay of $35.. I still knock wood for that blessing -- I will let you know how it goes tomorrow -- and thanks again Love, Kate Largo, FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 Hi Kate, You'll have to back up a little for me. I must have missed something you wrote about you being in trial with Enbrel. How were you selected and why? You said in your last letter that after the three month's trial that your insurance would start picking up the cost. I thought at first that you were picked because you had no insurance at all and this was a generosity on the part of Enbrel. I'm a little confused as to why they would give you the free trial when you have insurance or is it just a " pick someone to test " trial? For some of us here that do not have insurance, how would they get on to this list? I have insurance so it was never a problem to obtain it although my doctor did have to write a novel on how it would help my case and my insurance company decided that it would benefit me. I am really happy for you and can't wait to hear how you are progressing. I tried Placquenil at my early onset and did not do well with it. It made me itch with a rash. Lucky you that you are responding to it. I hope what I am trying to ask you makes sense to you. Happy " poking " ........... ) xxoo Ca. Carmen My nurse instructor suggested the " X " poking in my tummy. I wrote it on my calendar for the year so I wouldn't forget where to poke next. I use my belly button for the dividing line and do " upper left " then " upper right " then " lower left " and then " lower right " . Seems to work for me...)

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Will do Sheila! Though i remember from last time, its the thyroxine that needs increasing. Going for bloods on Monday so i know what to crank it up to!

I conceived my first in March 2003, thanks to Armour.) Yay! Jen > > HI Jen > > This is wonderful news - our number two Armour baby. Remember to increase your dose through your pregnancy.
