Infection

[Guest guest]

well they are thinking more the weather actually. being so hot and being

wrapped up. the dr hasn't seen it yet so i haven't been properly diagnosed!!!

so hopefully saturday he will see it and get some meds. they said a really

strong cream. i have been on antibiotics since sept 1st so i hope i don't get

what they got. i have been feeling really run down the past couple days. i

think i may be going into a flare.... no!!!! kathy in il

Oh yes, just like athletes foot is more prevalent in the summer months. I

hope you get to

see that doctor soon so it can be checked out. I hope you feel better and

don't go into a flare.

I'm afraid many of our members are flaring due to the extreme emotional

stress that's been

all around us.

that is so true. i find myself so angry about my life right now. i don't like

the way i feel. i am just so tired of doing everything by myself. i ride my

son to help me and he doesn't. last night he asks if there is something he

can do to help me. i lost it. told him i've been asking that for months but

now your sick. well so am i!!! my temp is higher now at 9am then usually at

3pm. so i know i'm in for a bad ride today. i know there are others who are

much worse off than we are and i am very greatful of that, i am just tired of

being locked in my house and unable to do anything besides housework. (that i

probably really shouldn't be doing anyway!!) to go back to bathing in the

sink, after having the luxury of the shower again. i have really been home

since december of last year. who can really count the part time work i did

for a month and a half. sorry just needed to vent somewhere besides my poor

son, he was out here taking anti-depressants a little while ago. i thought

hmm....maybe i should join him!! kathy in il

Kathy,

With all that you've been through, it is no wonder that you feel so angry.

It's been a very rough year for you

and it's hard to stay positive with so much going on. Being housebound is

not fun. It's the same old thing

every day. Yearning to get back out into the world and become a productive

member of society, but feeling

to bad to do it. It is very lonely being stuck in the house because you're

sick. We are all very blessed that we

can reach out across the miles to others that feel the same way. The

internet has taken so much loneliness away

and given us the ability to talk to others that are in the same boat.

If you're taking AD's you really should take the regularly, not just when

you're upset. They really have helped me

a lot. I hope you feel better Kathy.

change...i went to the eye dr yesterday. my visual field test he said is

beautiful and my pressures were at 15. i don't think it has ever been that

low. maybe remicade helped somewhere?!?! even feeling a little confident to

You'r correct dd don't take antibiotics with MXT. I did and I

peopole dont know what a cavity is in our sinus area. With a sinus

infection I learned fast its a lot of room in there. get better hun

dd,

Glad your going to the doc today. You shouldn't take the mtx while

you have an infection, and on antibiotics. Keep us posted, Tawny
