Hi everyone. I am sooo glad I had the privilege to meet everyone in Tulsa and I am proud to belong to such a terrific group of people! I think it would be neat if we could get together about once a year, in different places. I really enjoyed getting to know each other face to face. I'm sorry I was unable to say good-bye properly ...... I hope you all understood. Now, on to the low temp. I have had a low temp for as long as I can remember, and so did my father. It was usually around 96 - 96.6. (When I had appendicitis, it was only 99. Years ago I had a temp of 101 and was delirious, which for people with normal temps, usually doesn't happen until the temp reaches the 104 -105 mark.) So, yes, when the thermometer reads 98.6 - 99 (considered normal temp), I am running a fever. Maybe this is our link? It is definitely interesting. Take care!

, my doctor has finally gotten the point that when I get sick my

temperature goes down not up (probably because I was put together backwards

on a Friday afternoon after a three martini lunch and before a long holiday

weekend!) So, he now acknowledges that if my normal temp is 97.4 if I'm down

at 94, I am SICK! So we deal with it that way,seems to be working.

Has anyone else noticed that since we (I) are on Methotrexate, we're (I'm)

not getting sick from colds etc? Is this only happening with me, or is it

happening to all those on metho? Believe me, I'm not knocking it!

Love, Judy
