Guest guest Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Tawny and group; Great to hear from you Tawny. When you say your not looking for side effects your telling your body that too. Nine times out of ten your body will oblidge. So thats a good start. I should ask my doctors if I have a low vitamin count. I feel so weak. It could be from the RA or the congestive heart failure or even the diabetes. They don't tell you much in the doctors office. I am going to get some vitamins anyway of course I will inform all my doctors. Yes there is a lot of caring nurses. When I was in the hospital there was so much for them to do. It seem like the nicer they dress the less they had to do haaaaaaaaaa. Thats with most jobs... I keep telling my grandson to finish school... He is in the 10th grade I think. Can't even get a job with out an high school diploma... And the GED is really hard....I feel for kids thinking they can get a GED later... I got my GED but it was so hard,,, I took a course for six months for the test... It was unbelievable hard but I was able to pass..... I am going to ask my rheumy to get agressive with the osteo and bursitis.... I can't believe it but it's true,,, Lyrcia makes the fibromyalgia allmost completely disappear,,,, and the hummira injections takes the RA pain away,, almost completely.... Yes it's true sometimes we get one thing better,,,, than another pops up... I am going to nap,,,, Hope your doing good. gentle kind hugs everyone Clora > > I am glad to be on the mtx injections again. I'm looking for NO side > effects.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hi Clora, So good to see you posting today. Hope your feeling OK, and enjoying the weekend. I take my mtx tomorrow, so I'll let you know how it goes. I try to stay positive, because being negative all the time, is not good for anyone. I had a good exerience that last time, I used the mtx injection. My rheumy always does lab work when I go in. Does your rheumy do lab work? They should, since your on Humira. You might ask if they check for low vit d. This is the first time, I've had a problem. I did have a low white blood count when I was on Humira. I wasn't on mtx at the time, so I know the Humira did it. So, just stay on top of it. You do need to let your doctor know your feeling weak. I need to get me some Caltrate, Doreen was telling me about it. It sounds good to me, and we all need extra the older we get. It is very important to finish school, so I hope he listens to you. My youngest daughter wants to be a nurse. I was going to school to be a nurse, and working full time, when the RA struck me down. I am glad to hear your feeling better, and the meds are working for you. I am feeling better as for the fatigue. I'm back to the normal fatigue for me. I think the mtx made me sick, and then with the vit d low, just done me in. I still need to see the pulmonary doctor in Nov, so I need to take it easy. Well, you take care, and I will catch you later on, Tawny > > Tawny and group; > > Great to hear from you Tawny. When you say your not looking for > side effects your telling your body that too.
