Youch! That'd be very cool about remission but awfully hard to go back

to being sick...

,

I am suppose to be on Humira every two weeks and plaquinil. I had to stop

when I got this lung problem I have. I have don't know when I can restart my

meds. I see my rheummy later this week. So we shall see what he says. I

feel some better but no where near normal with the lungs! I still have

horrible coughing episodes and I am sure I could use another large dose of

steriods

to help calm this down again.
