*******Group, I am so glad they caught this infection Nae. That

must of been scary being in the hosp like that. Again I welcome

the new people. Those of you that have small children and those

that work. I know it must be so hard. I can't even imagine how

you do it. I know that I love my grown kids and I would have

done it somehow. There is so much suffering with this RA and I

read your posts and my heart goes out to all of you. I read that

the RA hits more women than men. I guess it's true, there's more

women here. OMG , I never knew that vertigo could be so bad.

God bless you hon. So sorry it was so bad. Glad to hear you are

in remission. I am waiting for remission. I pray for it.

..

*******Beth, what is bppv?. The little ear can cause such problems.

Also, what is the goggle test about?. I know how it is to wait

and wait for a diagnosess. I waited 20 years for diagnose of

fibromyalgia. I hurt all the time and the doctor didnt have a

clue. Some doctors thoght I was faking the pain. Another one

said it was all in my head.

..

Kay, I get medicare with my disability social security.

Debbie, so sorry for your suffering. I know exactly how you

feel. I have bursitis, RA, osteo arthritis, bone spurs in my

feet. Fibromyalgia, Not counting my other health problems with

my heart and lungs. I cant do much of anything. Watch tv type

on the pc. God bless you sweet heart. I am 56 yrs old.

..

Kate, I use to have vertigo from ear aches. The meckline worked

fine for me. Sorry it's not working for you. Wow cherele, that was some attack

of vertigo. I had it but not that bad. Melody I am so

sorry your insurance makes you pay so much. I come from a large

family. We seldom saw a doctor in the 60s. My mom and dads family

doctor took care of everything. He delivered 5 of my bro's and

sis's at no charge. He even delivered my sister and her baby. It

seems that this new era has specializing for each organ of the

body. You and everyone is in my daily prayers.

My older brother just found out he had RA. He is

behaving just like me too. To tired to comb his hair. Don't put

his socks on. He came to see me from Ohio and we was laughing

at each other about our short commings with RA. LIke someone said we got to

laugh or we will cry. God bless you all,

God loves you and so do I.

..

I take my enbrel out an half hour before I take it and I

have no pain or soreness from it. One time I forgot to

take it or take it out for a half hour. I got it and took

it cold. OMG it burned and hurt so bad. I did it in my thigh

since my husband said take it tomorrow. He usually gives

me the injection. I even got sick to my stomach from the

pain. I guess it really works to let it warm up some. I couldnt

take that every week. ugh.

******* , Thanks for telling me what happen to you.

I felt so bad about this allergy thing. I broke out so bad,

I couldnt even get out of bed except to go to the bathroom.

I itched on my back and neck so bad I couldnt take it. I went

to the er and they said it was an allergic reaction. I should

of saved my er papers to show my rhuemy. She hasn't found a

cocktail to work for me yet. Was diagnosed in 2007. NO, I

havent tried rituxon. Never heard of it. My rhuemy lied to me,

she said the only thing left is remicade.

.........Barbara, thanks for you soothing words. My insurance

dictates that my primary doctor reccomends any specialist for

me. I could ask him for someone diff if she is to difficult. I

am not an outspoken person. I can't think of what to say when

someone acts like that to me. My sisters come up with a good

remark to people that are cocky. I was getting mad too.

Usually I blow up and thats not good. I am on darvecets which

helps a lot but not enough. My rheumy is againist pain pill.

Wish she knew what RA felt like, she would act a little diff.

.......Tawny, MTX broke me out like a red monster. I am on the

sulfazaline right now. So far its not breaking me out. It did

a few months ago. I don't understand. The pain in the groin is

gone. I got bit by something and my lower right leg swelled

up and turned very red and was hot to touch. I could see the bite

marks on it too. The bite area was ok. Just a few tiny holes.

My hubby took the desk and the bed a part and sprayed with black

flag. NO one else got bit. I don't go outside except to go to

the doctors. It is already getting better. My leg was slightly

swollen for a few days. Almost went to the er. It's ok now. Must

of been a spider or something. Thanks so much for your kind words.

..

I thank all of you for your kind words. I hope I don't hit that

button and delete this like I did the last one, I text all my

post into one. Been texting this for a few days. My joints in

my fingers hurt so much. I put a homemade splint on my worst

finger so I don't keep moving it causeing it to hurt more. God loves you and I

love all of you too.

gentle kind hugs
