You aren't going to be in a wheelchair in five years, a R! We won't let

you. Your DH should stop saying things like that. Send him to us and we'll

set him straight.

I haven't ever seen a chiropractor.

I'm glad you had a better day on Friday, and I hope this weekend was good,

too.

a R.

Don't listen to your DH! I was told by my first RD that I'd

be in a wheelchair before I was 30. At 46 I still am not

and have no intentions of being in one. We may have to use

them while flaring or to enjoy places such as the amusement

parks, or to get through surgery, but it won't be part of my

everyday life for as long as I can help it. Before I had my

knees replaced, the wheelchair seemed inevitable.

I know how down you get. When I start thinking about what

the future holds, it is depressing. That's why we all have

to take each day one at a time and make the best of it. As

June said so well, enjoy the good days and on bad days dream

of what you'll do when your good days return. I hope you're

sleeping better. It's real hard to have a good frame of

mind when you can't sleep.

Cutting out meat and dairy was great for me. I'll eat meat

on occasion, and have dairy on occasion, but it is not part

of my everyday diet like it used to be. My husband lived on

Tums when we ate meats, and now rarely touches them unless

we've had it. He's allergic to most dairy, so he didn't

need to cut that out.

I went to a chiropractor until even he admitted it was a

loosing battle with me because of my heavy limp. I'd get an

adjustment, and as soon as I stepped down from the table, I

was out of adjustment again. What works best for me is

water therapy. I swim as much as I can, and in the winter

I'll join a gym that has a pool and keep swimming. It

really helps keep my joints as mobile as they can be.

Hi,

i am doing a bit better today. I didnt sleep through the

night, my

hand was throbbing but i seem to be doing better today. I

thank all

of you for your posts. I sometimes get really down because

i dont

want to be in a wheel chair in 5 years(this is what my DH

says) I am

young and want to continue to do the things I want. But it

is very

hard sometimes. I am just glad that i have you all. you

are a god

send.

I cut out dairy the last two days, will continue and see

if i feel

better.

Has anyone gone to a chiropractor for their pain?

Allergies are rampant these days but I am feeling a bit better.

I ended up taking a couple puffs of Flovent last night before I went

to bed, and am not so tight this morning. I haven't used Flovent in

a couple of months.

If I could do something effective about my stuffy head I would feel

like a million bucks.

I also gave myself my weekly allergy shot this morning, so maybe

that will help too.

It's disappointing that the Xolair couldn't completely control this,

but as I indicated in an earlier post, I seem to have less tolerance

for wheezing than I did. Nevertheless, I am confident that things

would be much worse without it.

BTW - we went today for my wife's ultrasound. Definitely another

boy. My son went with us and is very excited about having a baby

brother. Due date is mid-August.
