hi all , i 've been absent for quite a bit. I did go on vacation and turned out well.. i have / um HAD been doing better.. but its starting to kick my ass, right before another vacation (i haven't been anywhere in 5 yrs!!!)...so to all those who are hurting, i understand and sympathize w/ your pain.. i'm also in major pain tonight, wrists, really effed.. so can't do indv posts.. Some good news.. bc i havent pushed myself, my Xrays turned out really really well!! my Dr was very pleased!!! the sucky news, is that i have to find a $,000 copay.. to get my next Rituxan infusion.. have been given agency names.. (supposedly, i've "used" up my medicaid/care allotment) yeah i'm sure! my wrists really really bad, and i can't find my huge braces.. hi and blessings to all~I am sorry, whispered. Hope you get that all straightened out soon.
