Re: I'll be darned... to Kat

... good grief...sorry you still have your cold but do stay down

even a couple of days after you start ot feel good. I didn't and the

dang thing came right back. My fault..... I was just to eager to get up

and start doing something. Bad idea. Hope you start to feel better

real soon.

Did you also like Dr. Lava as well?

> Did you also like Dr. Lava as well? Hi vick- am " resting " for a

few moments- well- SOMEBODY'S gotta do the house stuff and unplug

the toilet and clean up the cat throwup.....guess who? Fever seems to

be gone for now- will be careful. Did I like Dr Lava? yeah- liked

him, but after brief exam and looking over my history(unfortunately

my previous muscle biopsy slides there- he couldnt find them-no

longer existed) and doing the usual blood tests- which I told y'all

came back neg- he told me to go seed a good internist because

something wasnt right with me but he felt it wasnt current poly- and

then in June the internest did not agree with Dr. Lava---- they

ahvent talked though. I have next appt with internist Oct 20. That's

why I'm mighty curious to know more about Kat's hubby's

experience..... bye

Jackie:

No, Neuropathy is not connected with Myositis (thank God, we have enough

problems as it is without adding neuropathy!). Dr. Shibana was so impressed

with the patients' reactions to the COPING book - every doctor at the Houston

Medical Center of Texas; plus 2 books in every reception area of the Center

which covers several blocks; plus 2 books in each reception in his own

Neurology clinics. In COPING, he and I became friends so that's how the

Neuropathy proposed book came into talking stage.

Aside from that, I've had numerous emails asking if I will enlarge and revise

COPING as people just like you feel that Myositis has caused many other

problems which the medical professionals don't acknowledge. I'm giving some

thought to that project too.

(If I plan enough work ahead for one year at a time, maybe I'll never let IBM

make an invalid out of me :>)

Thank you for the kind words of appraisal.

Now that's also interesting because my husband is also really sick right now

with some type of cold and cough. He was coughing all night I told him he

should see a Dr. Are people with pm more susceptible to colds or flu?

by today. Hang in there and I hope tomorrow will be

better.
