Guest guest Posted July 10, 2002 Report Share Posted July 10, 2002 Marilyn, gosh I hope the dr. can get your shoulder all figured out. We need to all get better real fast. How much pred are you on now? Is it holding the RP under control? I am at 6mg and will go to 5mg on Sunday. Geez, so far so good. Seems like the Plaquenil is working for me. Maybe in 5 months I will be off of it. YEAH!!! A dream come true. I'm happy with 5mg right now and won't push for anything lower, just take one day at a time. Let us know what you find out. I'm taking to the dr at 9am and hopefully she is better. Haven't talked to her today. Last night her fever spiked back up and her headache was back. Hoping today she is starting to feel better. I will let you all know. I have a dentist app at 10:30 then a PCP appt at 2:30. It is suppose to be 110 degrees here today. YUCK!! Take care and I will post an update later today. hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 10, 2002 Report Share Posted July 10, 2002 --- In Rpolychondritis@y..., RCColloran@a... wrote Dear , Don't you just hate this hot weather when you have to go out in it? It's really a slizzler here today and supposed to stay hot all week. Tomorrow it is supposed to be 102. It's all coming up from your direction. You could keep it there if you want to. Yes, I hope the doctor can do something for my shoulder. Can't imagine what is wrong. It started about 3 months ago and has just gotten worse and worse. This AM I bumped my elbow on that side and the pain was so bad in the shoulder I thought I was going to faint. I just hope it is something that a shot of cortizone will take care of so I don't have to have any surgery on it. Hope all goes well at the dentist's office and your PCP. Congratulations on being at 6mgs of pred. I am at 3mgs and thinking about trying to come down 1/2 a mg. next week, if all goes well. I use it as a crutch now. Hoping that if I keep a little in my system that I won't get an RP flare. How is doing today. I hope and pray that she starts to feel better real soon. Wonder if it is a BAD virus. Let me know how your day goes. Love, Marilyn Marilyn, gosh I hope the dr. can get your shoulder all figured out. We need > to all get better real fast. How much pred are you on now?
