Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 Hi All, Just wanted to let you know that I'm still here. I've been lurking for the past week and a half since my back surgery. I have read most of the posts and want to welcome all of the new members. I know that you will love this group as much as I do. I do have some good and confusing news. I have not taken my methotrexate in about a month because of the surgery and my RA is doing better now than when I was taking the med. My knees and hands are functioning reasonably well and I can actually see my kneecaps for the first time in over 6 months. My back is still a little sore, but not unbearable. The staples itch and I can't wait until Monday when they come out (hopefully). I really don't understand this improvement, but I am not complaining. I am trying not to overdo. I can't wait for the ok to drive again. Yes, I have actually listened this time and haven't done anything that I am not supposed to do. You should see my house. But I did learn my lesson after cutting the grass that time. I could get used to having everyone bring my groceries and carry things and run errands for me. LOL My friend came and took me and Wyatt to the National Pike Festival today. I go to this fest every year and this is a fun tradition for Wyatt and me. We walked around and ate lots of food and bought lots of handmade toys for Wyatt. We had a great time and it was good to get out, but I think we may have stayed too long. I'm feeling a little sore, but not that bad. Have to wait till tomorrow to find out what the damage is. Anyway, I just wanted to check in and let you all know how things were going and that I didn't fall off the planet.
