Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Try 'galloping dog rot " . Seriously though why do you need all these labels. I find the labels do nothing to extend the quality of life and if I spend more time at the Dr's than at home then I have missed the point of life, no Dr is going to " give me a life " I have to make the best of what I've got, so label or no label I have " galloping dog rot " . Ever think the mystery is still unresolved? While I have found that I do have almost all the Lupus symptoms save the kidney involvement ones; and 94 of a list of 104 Fibro symptoms. I still wonder what else might be going on that I'm missing. I think its because I keep thinking I should feel better with all the medications I'm on for the known conditions. Let's see what I have so far; Lupus, Fibromyoitis, Osteoarthritis in my neck, knees, and lower back, High blood pressure, hiatal hernia, depression, anxiety, reflux disease, plantas fasciitis, asthma/allergies that includes penicillin and erythemiacin which makes treating me a challenge for any doctor. (I may have forgotten something). I've had surgery on my sinuses and nasal passages, my wrist 3 times for cysts that grow in them, to have my bladder/rectal area repaired, and a hysterectomy to stop 'fibrous tissue' and constant bleeding after I had the twins by C-section. My neck problems include a turned vertebrae (or 3), from a severe whiplash I got at age 19, compliments of a drunk driver. I also have a popping ankle that I severely sprained when a truck hit me on my motorcycle and it landed on my twisted ankle; a foot (other one) that tells me the weather, I broke in my early 30s; and the wrist that is a combination of injuries as a kid and carpal tunnel from being a keyboard junkie my whole professional life. (Meaning I'm a tech nerd.) Maybe its just another one of those times I'm expecting too much from the treatments. But does anyone else ever think maybe they just have totally missed something?

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I don't need the labels. I just think if they'd hit the right diagnosis then maybe I'd see more improvement. I guess I can't quite accept that this is as good as its going to get.
