Guest guest Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 good luck ! Please let us know how it goes! I hope that the new doctor is amazing and gets you on the path of the course of the correct treatment! I'm going to be checking into Dr Roshman in Kalamazoo. One of my doctors was thinking that perhaps my medications are being decreased at U of M is because they are an academic hospital and those types occasionally tend to think in black and white and making a diagnosis and not being conventional. My family doctor sees that taking my medications away is making me worse. My physical therapist can see the joint effusions on my knees and the swelling, so I might be trying something new too!! I hope you have a great visit From: <jaayimee@...> Subject: [ ] I'm so nervous Date: Tuesday, August 5, 2008, 2:29 PM Tomorrow is my big day. My first visit with the rheumy. I've been writing all my symptoms down over the last few weeks but I'm afraid I'll forget some thing or that he'll down play what is going on with me and my pain. Or that he will not do anything for me at first. I'm so nervous I'm getting myself all worked up. I was also wondering if sore throats and ear pain was a possible symptom for an RA flare or if I need to be looking at some thing else. I've had a sore throat and my right ear pain for several months now and my hearing is muffled on that side. My internist says there is no infection or sign of anything going on. I've never had environmental allergies before either. Just curious if it may be related, I've never seen it as a symptom before. ************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ******** http://jaayimeeslif e.blogspot. com/ See my photos @ http://community. webshots. com/user/ jaayimee ____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _ Click here for financial aid options.
