Guest guest Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 , Oh the confusion of subject lines! lolol I'm not the one who left the group - that was Ivy. And she was the one looking for information on polymyalgia rheumatica. Just a simple request, please change the subject line to fit your message. I'm not sure if you have us confused or not, so needed to write to make sure. It would be very much appreciated. Thanks!!! Dix (who never lurks, and doesn't even like the word! I prefer to think of them as silent members. So much nicer, and sounds less like peeping toms! lolol) [ ] Dixie > > > > > > > > > > > > Hey Dixie...sorry to stick my snout in here, but > wanted to add my 2 cents > > if > > > > that's ok... > > > > > > > > I'm on 125mg of methylprednisone a day (just > started about 2 weeks ago) > > plus > > > > one to two baclofen a day as well (muscle > relaxers).
