Hi Tigger,

I was off for a while too because I've been sick.

I've missed you.

I'm sorry that you have been having such a tough time. Does the upped thyroid

med help you have more energy? When my thyroid was changed I had more energy

and lost a lot of weight - that was years ago.

I've been tested for Lupus many times over the years. I always seem to have

all the symptoms, but it ends up being ruled out. I hop you don't have Lupus.

And I hope you feel better soon.

What a storm we had. I don't know how much snow you got in RI, but in CT we

have so far had 15 inches and yes the wind is blowing. I'm gonna be inside for

a while and I'm cold now.

I have pneumonia complicated by my sarcoidosis and I'm trying to stay out of

the hospital. I'm is an on going battle with my doctor over it. I have people

who look in on me and call me. My son in law made me some homemade chicken soup

yesterday and it's great - good medicine too. I'm trying to be as careful as I

can be - would love to trade in the stairs though. My toilet broke

downstairs and now I have to go upstairs just to go. Really energy consuming.

Please feel better. You're going forward and it will get better.

Take care of yourself,

Marti

Hi,

I just wanted everyone to know that I've been offline lately because I

haven't been feeling well. My doctor upped my thyroid medication and in

February I see a new rheumatologist because they think I have Lupus. Hey,

it's always something.

In the meantime I'm spending a lot less time on the computer because. well,

because I don't have the energy. I hope to start feeling better again soon.

Right now I feel like I've gone backwards in my life. I feel as bad as I

did early last summer. Oh, and it doesn't help that we are expecting a N'or

Easter tomorrow which means lots of snow and lots of wind.

Just wanted to let you all know I'm still alive.
