Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Dear Doofus, Don't you sell yourself short, I just learned a lot about being in remission from reading this letter you wrote to Nikki....I am still trying to figure out since my new Rheumy says I am in remission from my Lupus now .....how I can still feel so tired and achey. He says It is because I have Fibro. and Sjogrens. All I can say is OWIE.....OWIE.....OWIE !!. Also , you are not known as "THE DOOFUS".....you are "MY DOOFUS!"

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 , I'll continue to be your doofus then. Ha. You've always got something funny to say. I hope that you don't stay down for too long. I miss hearing your 'Here's Your Sign' moments. Ha. I didn't want to give Nikki the wrong information because I know that this is all new for her and she's scared. I just thought that I would share my experience with Lupus. Even though you're in remission I know that it doesn't really feel like it because you still have some of your symptoms because they're tied to other illnesses. I hope that everything will eventually cool down for you and you can get back to your normal self ... if you remember how that felt. I know that I don't. -.
