Hi, Kathleen - that is how rp is usually diagnosed

though, on the symptoms.

Talking about a duck on the face or silly things like

that, I often wonder if we could have, say horrible

zits on our faces, but be pain free would we do it???

Lol

Great about the weight loss, love Liz

Kathleen, I don't blame you, I wouldn't want to hear ducks either. LOL But

congratulations on the weight loss. Just don't go losing too much. Please

let us know how you and your ducks are... we care about the both of you.

hugs

That's really not a problem! LOL!! Although before I was diagnosed I did

lose a lot of weight -- just felt so crappy and didn't want to eat. Now

that I am back on pred -- only 10 mg so far -- I am sure at least a few a

those pounds will come back to join their friends!

I am so sorry you aren't feeling well. UTIs are sooooo painful. I can't

imagine having one for too long. I hope they can clear it up and get you

feeling better soon. I certainly hope it's not cistitis (spelling?). Can

they do anything for it if it is? Well, I hope your appointment goes well

and you are feeling well again soon!

Happy Birthday!
