Guest guest Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Well folks, I " Officially " have RA as of my visit yesterday. After yet another 500.00 in tests, he told me what I already knew. I guess I should be happy about getting a definitive diagnosis, somehow I am not. HOWEVER- he did treat me with much more respect and spoke more candidly with me this time, which really was a blessing. There is a protien that really spiked hard in my bloodwork and they want to isolate it and know exactly what it is. Some GREAT news came of this visit too. My Dexa bone scan placed me nearly off the charts on the positive side for bone hardness, and I had been dreading the results. After taking 40 mgs of Prednisone every day for months, I was concerned to say the least. That is what raw goat milk can do! WhoHooo!!! Before anybody squalls about the dangers of raw milk, let me state that I test my goats annualy and am excruciatingly careful in my milk-handling. I feel like I won the lottery since I have a long laundry list of diseases and syndromes and wow am I glad! Thought I'd share. Gentle hugs to all-- Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
