I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. My MD-PDoc has me on Neurontin to

stabelize my moods. I hope you are well.

Dear ,

I'm sorry you are having such a crappy day!! I don't think people realize how horrible this illness is!!! I think many of them think we are just depressed and need to snap out of it. I'm sorry you won't be able to make it to be with your family on Easter. You can't worry about it though. It will only stress you out and make you feel worse. Just rest and make sure you are drinking plenty of water. Remember............this is our year to get well!! :-)

I'm praying for you.

Not feeling Well

Girls,

I am really having a rough day today with

brain fog and swelling in my tummy wearing

me out. I have been taking extra caprylic acids

but not relieveing me like usual. I hardly ate

today either. I feel like I am detoxing and havent

done anything because I thought I would take a

break from it all for a couple of days to see how I

feel.

Ph,

Is this what the DMSA makes you feel like or does

it stop after your done. I havent took it in a couple

of days thought that I needed a break and hear I

feel worse. My head feels so heavy just like my tummy

and I am not getting any relief today.

I am not going to my familys again for Easter because

I just dont have the energy and not feeling well at all.

I hope they understand but it has been 4 years and time

has past I hope they can forgive me that I just cant come

right now !!! I havent seen my sisters in 3 years and they

live 15 minutes away from me this is sad that I dont have the

energy to see them.

I hope everyone is feeling well here and enjoys their Easter

break from it all. But I know one thing Jesus died to not only

to save me but to heal me from all diseases and this would be

the perfect time for him to touch me ........AMEN !!!

Love

,I'm so sorry to hear you're either having a flare, or a big Herx, right here at Easter . . . Please be patient with yourself. I'm sure your body is trying to catch up with your detox programs. . . It takes time. . . Just be good to yourself right now. . . Rest, rest, rest. Don't push yourself to do ANYTHING!You'll feel much, much better in a few days.Hugs and prayers,Rogene

Hi ,

During the first six months after explant, I had alot of episodes

where all of the symptoms would return. After that it gradually

became less frequent - I still have some days where things flare up,

but not as often and not as bad. I especially noticed if I came in

contact with household cleaning products I'd feel really bad for a

few days after. I also would feel poorly when I had my hair

highlighted.

Hi Tawny: So sorry you got stung by a bee. Those stings can be

terrible, even days after.

I knew you were so excited to go out and do some yard work. Maybe you

did too much yard work after being down for a long time. I sure hope it

is not a flare returning. Are your pain meds. helping at all?

I am wishing for you to feel better soon. Maybe resting good, and

taking pain meds. will soon help you feel better. I pray that for you.

Always in my thoughts and prayers. Get well soon.

Hugs,

Barbara

Tawny - please make sure that the stinger is out from the sting. I was stung not

long ago - and gees! I haven't been stung in 30+ yrs. I had put some neosporin

on it and put a band-aid over it 'cause I really didn't know what else to do.

Several days later, I noticed something black in the middle - which scared the

crap out of me. I finally fessed up ( I didn't want to sound like a baby!!

hehehe) and showed it to my hubby and he said the stinger was still in there!

Sure enough - it hurt like hell to get it out but it healed immediately after we

did that! And not sure where you live, but it's hotter than heck here in SC! You

just can hardly breathe between the heat & humidy!

Stay cool !

Hi RA friends,

I was doing a little yard work Saturday, and got stung by a bee. It

didn't bother me much, but now its really ugly. I see the doctor

Tuesday, but probably there is nothing she can do for it.

I've been having some pain too, not sure if its a flare. I did a little

outside work, and of course the RA is showing its ugly self. I just

seem to not be able to do much, without the pain starting. I'm having

back, neck, and rib pain. I hate the rib pain, it so not comfortable

when sitting for awhile.

I did have some good days for a little while, so hope this doesn't last

long. I hope everyone is having some good days, and able to enjoy the

summer. It's so hot here, can't enjoy much in this weather.

Take care all, and have a lovely weekend,

Tawny

[Guest guest]

Hi there--surprise, it's me!!

Wish I could send you some of your cool weather. It is actually too cool today

to go in the pool (it's about 67 right now) but I've been in 5 of the last 6

days.

Are you allergic to bee stings? Our oldest grandson is now, after haviing been

stung multiple times last summer and early this summer. He got stung on the

foot a couple of weeks ago, and said his foot swelled up like a football.

They can't afford to take him to the dr. for tests, but are able to get an

epi-pen for next time he gets stung.

Feel better,

Judi

Hi Judi,

Wow, the weather sounds great your way, send me some cool air,

please!!!! Can I visit, just kidding:) I'm glad to see you posting

again, you were such a great inspiration to this group.

You were so kind to me, when I first joined. It's been awhile, huh?

I'm just happy where you can enjoy life again. I have noticed a change

in your emails, just so lively.

I wasn't allergic to bee stings, but who knows now. It seems like every

year, my body changes. It is terrible. Where I got stung, it's very

red, and about as big as a cell phone when you lay it flat on your skin.

I know there isn't much that can be done about it. I'll let the doc

know on Tuesday, see what her, " words of wisdom " might be.

You take care, and hope your back for a long time. I've missed you on

the group, we need you.

Take care, your friend,

Tawny

Barbara,

I probably did too much work. You kow how it is, when your trying to

get something done. No one likes to do real yard work, they like to

ride on the lawn mower:(

The pain meds are helping me. I'm relaxing the rest of the weekend. I

had to go out yesterday, grocery shopping and paying bills. I went out

at 5:00AM, finished the rest of the shopping. So, all done, yeah!!

I was stung about two years ago, and it did bother me quite a bit.

Nothing like this one though, hopefully it will go away soon. I'll let

you know how the doc visit goes on Tuesday.

You have a good weekend,

Tawny

Aw, thanks Tawny!

I guess I just felt that not having RA no one would understand why I was posting

here. But I always remember all the good family members I met here.

Have you tried ice on your bee sting? At least that might give you some relief.

There are no guarantees with life--you just have to take what you can out of it,

give what you're able to others, and try not to screw up too badly.

Cheers!

Hi ,

My hubby got the stinger out, right after it happened. It did itch

quite a bit at first, but not anymore, thank goodness. It's very hot

and humid here, almost unbearable right now. I try to do everything

before daylight, if possible.

Hope some cool air goes your way. But, if its like here, its not going

to happen for quite awhile.

Take care, and have a good weekend,

Tawny

Judi,

I knew you kind of felt this way. Everyone talking about RA, but your

disease is not heard of that much. It helps others to learn more about

it. New members come here for information, and one of them can be

helped, and diagnosed with this disease. By you talking about your

disease, can help so many.

We all have chronic health problems, and pain we all have. Please don't

feel like your the outsider of this group. Were all here for the same

thing, and that is support, to make us get through each day.

There are a lot of great new members here. I hope you kick off your

shoes, and stay a long while, we need you. I have tried ice, it has

helped a bit. It doesn't itch or burn like it did, so happy about that.

You have a wonderful weekend, and know you are a genuine jewel,

Tawny
