Hi Everyone,

I went to the Rheummy today and we are starting on CellCept and weaning off

of Imuran. The joints are kicking up and the cough is starting to come

back, ears are complaining a little, yada, yada, yada :)

We are hoping that this works great! Have been very busy but didn't go back

to work today after the doc, had a nice lunch with friends and then went to

see Janice in a quiz bowl competition, they won and will be in the playoff

next week and if they win they go to the state competition in April. She

competes again tomorrow in a different tournament so I'll probably go to part

of that - this one is in Ann Arbor which is a couple of hours away from here

- and I''m not getting up early this Saturday - it's the only bye from Zach's

basketball schedule so we are sleeping in (hopefully) - anyway a nice break

from work!

Track practice does start next week so yes on the run again - Janice

and Mom :) Although, Mom does her running in a mini-van LOL!

Hope everyone is doing well!

Patty B.

Patty, I hope you have lots of luck on the new med. Let us know. I was a

track mom for 11years. I know the pace. LOL All 3 of my girls ran track. I

sure do miss it now. Try to get to the high school every chance I get to

still watch, although it isn't as much fun when you don't know them all.

Hope you have a great sleep in day.

Sandy, I'm so sorry to hear that the Cytoxon isn't working. DARN Sandy. We

just have to get you on the right med. How have you been feeling? Gosh I

worry about you.

Tell I'll be thinking of her when she is throwing that shot put. I

sure wish I could watch her and Patty's kids do track. It is in my blood.

Please keep us updated on yourself. And when you meet Patty and , you

give them a hug for me. Now I'm jealous.LOL

Hi Patty,

Let me know how the Cellcept works out for you. The Cytoxan is not working for me so I have to try something else.

I talked to on Sunday and I told her we would make a trip tp Kalamazoo to visit so I hope we can all get together. I know the girls would like to see Janice.

Let her know my little is going out for track. Of all things she wants to go out for Shot Put.

Say Hi to the family for us.

Sandy, you are having too many problems. I'm praying your eye sight will be

okay.

I never ran track, but Rich and all 3 girls did. They get it from him. LOL

I really miss it.

Know I'm thinking of you and your family Sandy and I want you well soon.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Patty and .

Did you run track in school? This is 's first time trying out for track. She has always been on the swim team.

Next week is Cleveland Clinic week for me. I see a new eye specialist on Tuesday. I have lost some of my central vision in both eyes. Praying it's not permanent. Also see my Pulmonologist and get a PF test.

On Wednesday I see the Rheumy, don't know what he's going to do about the Cytoxan. I don't want to go off it because it has helped my Vasculitis so much.

Hugs,

Sandy

Regina, it doesn't sound like a pity party to me. And go and obsess over

your tummy tuck...sometimes worrying about the little things is our brain's

way of dealing with bigger issues. Hang in there, keep " talking " to us, and

let us hold your hand, at least virtually. You're in my prayers.

Hi all

Just wanted to thank you for all the support over the latest drama in my

life with my upcoming hysterectomy. Right now can't sleep and walking

around rubbing my belly. Right now it's the size of about a four month

pregnancy. I'm really uncomfortable and the emotions are running

high.Cannot believe how big and how fast it is growing. So disgusted

about that and my beloved tummy tuck. Hoping there will be no permanent

stretching and it will go back to being as flat as a board where I can

bounce a quarter off of it after the surgery. I know, with everything

else going on, this is what I'm worried about. It took me 40 years to

acquire some vanity and I'd rather think about that then all the other

crap associated with the surgery, like anesthesia that always makes me

sick, four days in a hospital, blechh and then the few weeks of

recuperating and telling my daughter to watch out when she comes near me

so she won't hurt mommy's belly. Tired of bleeding like a stuck pig and

was told today that my counts are so low that I may have to be

transfused before the surgery. Taking iron suppls and eating iron

enriched foods aren't helping with this much bleeding. I can't even

maintain what little I have right now. Will be having blood drawn next

week to check if counts have improved even slightly.

Ok, pity party over. Just tired emotionally and physically. Needed to

vent a bit and the hubby and kids are sleeping and the dog is having his

own crisis with the thunder storm we're having and the cat could really

give a hoot about my problems or anyone elses for that matter. Maybe

should go have a talk with the fish. At least he's a captive audience.

Thanks for listening.

Jac:

Well next to my uterus, my brain is certainly a " little thing " right now. I'm

hanging, working, going to school and all that other stuff. Just would like a

day or two of no pain or bleeding to pull myself together and get on with

everything. The constant pushing is exhausting me physically and mentally.

Thanks for the virtual hand holding and prayers. They're so much appreciated.

Thanks Lori. Just felt that you guys were as sick of hearing about this crap

as I am going through it. I've got a really good sense of humor, but have to

admit that even that has almost been taken to the limit. Just spoke with my

plastic surgeon, bless his heart, such a wonderful man. Told me that he

doesn't feel that there will be any permanent stretching, but told me to come

in on Monday (free of charge, not even billing the insurance company) and he

will sit down and talk with me and take a look. Basically said that we'll

know for sure after my surgery. Just started crying on the phone with him.

Can't remember the last time I felt like such an ass.

Thanks again, its nice knowing I have someplace to vent when I don't want to

over tax the hubby or my friends. Most of them don't even know that I'm going

in. I know that the first reaction will be a joke about me being in the

hospital again or someother thing that I would usually laugh at, but not in

the laughing mood. Will let them know when I'm feeling better. Possibly two

to three weeks post-op. : )

Thanks Donna! You are right. And I think I made a step in that

direction today. I had my first session with the therapist and for

the first time in a long time I see hope. Its been a long time coming.

Had TIA #4 so now I get to have a neurologist added to my list of docs. So how

fun is that? I'm sure BCBS is SOOO proud to see another trauma ER visit. Only

to have the ER doc say, yep, that was another one, and let me go home.

Trying to keep a good spirit and not think about it much. Loving the Ativan and

staying calm. Only I slur a little now when I get tired.

I hope everbody is having a pleasant Saturday - or early Sunday as it happens to

be for some.

I am resting and looking into my black lab's calming eyes. He is such a good

boy.
