Guest guest Posted March 11, 2003 Report Share Posted March 11, 2003 Charlie, I have a hodgepodge e-mail program so this may not post in the correct thread. If not, it doesn't. I'll know when I get my copy, though that will probably not be enough to convince me I need to do anything about it yet. :-). In response to your questions. Picked up a copy of the book at my associate's office when looking for something to read. Recognized the questions as one's I have often asked myself at different periods in my life, and needed now. All is in perfect timing. Great to be here. Blessings to all, Wes Welcome Wes!! How did you come to hear about TheWork? What is it you recognized? It's wonderful to have you here, too.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Dear Group, I went to a presentation that Byron did in Spokane WA this past weekend. I knew nothing of her and I was amazed at the results of asking a few questions!!! I went to the web site over the weekend and read as much as I could. Today I purchased her book.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Camerin, Welcome to the group... I am so sorry that you have this dragon. If you are feeling low please do not hesitate to e-mail me at blondedolphin172@... . I have met friends in the group who were my lifesavers through some really low times. I was diagnosed May 2005 so I can relate to when you say it is hard to admit to being sick. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know. Again welcome.... Danni New Hi All I've been reading messages for a few days and thought I should post a message. I am new to the board. And relatively new to Stills. I was diagnosed in Feb 2004 by a Rheumatologist who made the diagnosis my first visit. After I was hospitalized a few months later, it seemed none of the docs could quite agree on/figure out exactly what I had. I had all the typical symptoms when sick the first time, high fevers (thought I had the flu), body aches, and then the rash (mine wasn't like the pics I've seen though) and finally the joint pain. Not too much joing swelling, but the pain was unbearable...wrists, ankles and knees and sometimes hips and once my shoulder. Anyway, after about 8 months of illness I went into remission. Of course that's when I decided I never had the disease to begin with because I suddenly felt like my old self. So, for the last 18 months I've been well. Until this summer and I started having some of the same symptoms that hovered after my acute hospitalization. Myalgias, feeling feverish but not really having a fever, losing my hair, fatigue. Mostly the myalgias though and induced by cold, humidity, too much walking. I haven't been working so I've been able to sleep when I need to which I have a suspicion has kept me from a full-out flare. Anyway, I have moved since I was diagnosed and don't even have an established regular doc, much less a Rheumatologist. So, I've been putting it off for months now hoping it'll go away, which it hasn't. Had my creatinine checked (kidney function) because when I was hospitalized I was in kidney failure (probably as a result of allergic reaction to Naprosyn vs. vasculitis????). Kidney's seem ok, but my blood pressure is back up and uncontrolled. Which brings me to ask, is there a recommended drug for hyptertension and Stills? So, I'm in the process of trying to understand if I really have this disease and not wanting to admit that the stories are way too familiar. Which is what brings me here. I'm trying to learn more and feeling down about it. Though, if these latest symptoms are the worst it ever gets again, I should be thankful after reading what others are going through. I am thankful, but remember all to well how my life was so changed when I was in constant pain. I suddenly felt old and debilitated and very depressed. I am trying to avoid that situation again. Well, sorry to ramble. Hi to all and my thoughts are with you all in your pain.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Hi Camerin, If your symtoms seem similar to others here then you should at least get in to a Rheumy & have yourself checked. Hopefully you can find a good one that has some experience with Stills. My Rheumy made my diagnosis the first visit & put me in the hospital that same day. I still don't feel great but when I look back to how I felt in March I'm doing ok. I have bad & good days as most of us do. I'm sorry your here but you will find a lot of info as well as support!

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hi there - I'm new to the group (... actually, I joined a while back but I guess I was still in the " thinking about it mode " ). Now I'm ready to dive in. I've started working through Full-filled and have done the exercises from chapter 1. I'm excited to start this journey and work through my emotional eating issues which have been with me for at least the last 20 years.
