Rheumatologist appointment yesterday | Arthritis Information

 

I brought my computer with my symptom/med tracking data in an Excel spreadsheet (as well as the weekly sheets I used to collect the data) to the appointment with me.  I was up til 1:00AM the night before entering al the data in.

Good luck with running the house! Try not to overdo it. Figuring out your relatives sounds like a story line for a soap. Bold and the Beautiful, perhaps? 

I hope the Plaquenil works for you and your side effects aren't too horrific... although sprouting a third eye sounds cool.

I hope you have a superfantastic Thanksgiving and extra comfortable day!

Back at you! I bet your RD was impressed with the info you brought along!  Hope that plaq works wonders so that you will be able to withstand and conquer the 3 naughty boys [QUOTE=Linncn]I bet your RD was impressed with the info you brought along!  Hope that plaq works wonders so that you will be able to withstand and conquer the 3 naughty boysJasmine. I did have a few side effects at the beginning of my plaq. One was
a weird itching just above my knees. I had a bit of stomach cramping/upset
for the first week or so. These symptoms went away in a short period of
time. give it time and i hope it works as well foryou as it does for me. I love
this drug.I hope the Plaquenil works for you. Have you been asked to have your eyes tested while on the Plaquenil.

Your spread sheet sounds interesting, might play around with exel myself.

Yep... I'm due for an eye appointment anyway.

Now, the ped rheum didn't really think much of it when he first saw it (said it would give him an epileptic seizure!!!!), but after he actually got over being such an ass and looked at it, he said, "This really was a rough time, wasn't it?"  and never said we should try mtx again.

All my talking and reporting of what had happened went in one ear andout the other, but the color-coded calendar proved my point.

Jasmine - I am glad you are getting good results and help from your doctors.  Keep up the good work.  Cathy

 

Jaz....I am so very glad that you have gotten more help.  I hope the Plaquenil will work well for you. 

Could you possibly post a template or send a template to me by email or PM.  I would like to copy, and I have someone to help me set it up, so that would be great. 

Thanks so much!

No problem!  I'll get 'em uploaded somewhere and post a link, probably tomorrow some time.  Thanks Darlin"  Love's ya much!
