Guest guest Posted July 3, 2004 Report Share Posted July 3, 2004 OK I have not been around, I was on our first ever vacation. No easy feat with a bipolar teen girl, a son with " heterotopia " - a brain disorder and lower limb difficulties, me, with my RA, and hubby with a ton of dx'es - from COPD to peripheral artery disease to multiple Agent Orange Cancers and 2 herniated discs- PLUS anothet teen girl and a DOG. LOL We went from IL to DC to S. NJ to NYC to PA and then home. 2 weeks. Driving. (I did ALL the driving) OK- the interesting part is this- I had NO RA symptoms AT ALL while we were gone!!!!! ALL the swelling in my wrists and fingers? Gone. Red and pruprle swollen toes and feet? GONE. One tiny nodule remains- on a finger- the one on elbow, one on foot- GONE. I simply cannot believe it! Oh now that I am home again, it is creeping back---an ankle, my fingers and thumbs..a wrist- but for 2 glorius weeks--- It was wonderful.
