just me

[Guest guest]

Hi All...I've been using the GenTeal Eye Lubricant Gel, and it does help

better than drops. But it doesn't take away all the yucky feeling,

grittiness, blurriness. The headaches are still bad when my eyes are

like that, and still very light sensitive. Some foods stick in my thoat

worse than others...I'm trying to chew more, but sometimes my mouth drys

up doing that. My legs are achey and joints are hurting, I'm at week 4

after Remicade. I also am having some problems with balance,

particularly when I first stand after sitting awhile...it's not

dizziness, it just feels lke my feet don't quite know what to do.

I see my rheummy on Nov. 21 and will talk with him about all this. I'm

still having pretty good energy in the early part of the day with a big

thud of fatigue late afternoon/early evening. Still writing down my

food and trying to make good choices.

I love you all, and pray for a 'less pain & illness' weekend for us all.

Many Hugs....

Tess

<PRE>hang in there tess, have you written down you symptoms to tell your rheumi?

i

always find that i forget, like when i was talking to the nurse about my mtx,

i told her about my tummy, and about my bleeding after a year and a half of

not, but i forgot about the fatigue. falling asleep in the chair during the

afternoon (that's not me) and going to bed at 8pm and not wanting to do

anything. (although i did clean up some yesterday and did a few loads of

laundry.) i was keeping a daily log of my health, but it got so old writing

the same stuff over and over i haven't written in about a month or so. hope

you start to feel a little better soon. kathy in il
