Re: Pseudotumor Cerebri (OT)

[Guest guest]

Enough about you? I love these little nuances of our health that many

of us do not have. And when you share them I am inclined to poke

around and dig up info. I find that looking at my Stills (and others'

Stills) allows me the interesting view of looking at my condition from

the third party perspective. The end result being it becomes more

clinical and less personal and I dwell less on my own pain. It keeps

most of the expected depression at bay and my mind entertained.

You are right with the Pharmaceutical Conspiracy. Just think they make

money on selling us the evil roids and then we have to buy their Lasix

(Furosimode) to pee out the fluids we retain.

How much Lasix do you take? Right now I take 80mgX2 per day.

2 weeks away from my Remicade and I just started limping. At first I

thought the ankles and feet were swollen cuz of the fluids, but am down

to 25mg of roids and should be stable. Now I realize it is the

arthritis/arthralgia in my ankles cuz of the dragon. Bummer! Was

hoping to last till Remicade+5 weeks this time and only hitting

Remicad+4weeks. As I used to say, " s**t, P*ss and vinegar. Maybe I

will need a cane this pass. Of course, then my wrists and hands will

start acting up shortly. Maybe Bob will lend me his little Power

Scooter.

Well. Take care and keep on posting.
