Hey All
I would like to clear things up. Because RAF is being slammed for something I done on my own and a few other people who were hurt by Roxy posted under assumed names.
I came over here to get an unbiased opinion on biologicals, because I have already read everyone else's stories on the other board. I came over to get some new prespectives on them. I am to start on biologicals on Tuesday. My RD gave me a choice between Enbrel & Humira. I realized a few members were still having to take pain killers while on Enbrel and I wanted to know if it was common. I was not over here to single anyone out or even bother anyone. I just wanted a different point of view from other Enbrel users.
The reason for the curiosity of the use of pain killers while on Enbrel was because my RD was talking about me going back on MTX. I did good on MTX for 3 months and then I started to be worse off then before I was on MTX. It made me more stiff, in much more pain and to the point to where I was dibilitated by it. I was at times bed-ridden from my use of MTX. If I had insurance and money when I was taking MTX I would have been on pain meds to help me cope.
I just wanted to know if Enbrel would fix it to where if I did get put on MTX with my Enbrel if it would help me not to revert back to the way I was when I was just on MTX alone. I wanted to be prepared before I went back to RD.
I never did reply to Roxy on that thread. I only replied to Granny25, Lovie, and SaraG. As I have heard the Roxy Files and decided she was not creditable. If I was out to get Roxy, I would have posted directly to her on that thread.
After reading some of her replies on here, they rubbed me the wrong way. I already had hurt feelings from her from when she slammed me on the other board. I thought all the feelings I had were from my pred use, but I have been off of pred for almost 3 weeks now and those feelings were still there. I just snapped. I did not mean to, but I did.
I did not mean to conceal my identity, for the To Roxy post. I thought I was on on my jooniper account. I later realized after I posted it when I came back home and by then it was too late. Could not fix it. As for the profile. I changed it after a few other members asked me and said it looked obvious it was me. I did not want people to think I was out to get Roxy, because that was not my intentions. I just wanted more opinions on enbrel and pain med useage.
I have been avoiding injections for 5 years. I quit going to RD's when they mentioned injections to me. I did that because I am afraid of needles and I would rather be in pain and bad off then to get stuck by a needle. This is all scarey for me. I cry everytime I think about starting injections. I so badly do not want to, but I have done enough damage to my body that I need to go on injections to not have anymore damage and I am only 26.
I am sorry this happened, but I snapped and to me for good reasons. I tried to over look and be adult about it, but I am only human.
I have to apologize for my part in posting on this board. I'm sorry for the few posts here by me, but not sorry for what I said. Like Kat; I can't apologize for defending my friends. The Roxy you all see here is not the same Roxy we had to read every day. Roxy at rafriends only wanted to reply to people she agreed with while alienating others. That is not what support is.
Again; I'm sorry for my part.
1TKO and Nancy D - Why don't you take all of your negativity and nastiness back to rafriends. I don't care if you approve of me and I don't think anyone else does either. I have every right to be here and you two are trying to ruin the energy of this board. Don't you have something better to do?
Ok we all know who Nancy D is. But I have yet to figure out who 1tko is. I am sorry if you think it is me, but I did say good-bye and when I say good-bye that means me as myself a whole person not just a username is done with you and anyone else who is in your fan club.
So do not be posting to my post. I apologized, and so did a few others.
I cannot control what other people who have something against you does. I have talked to the others and asked them not to bother you anymore. If I knew who 1tko was I would do the same and not to "protect" you or anything else to do with you.
It takes a real bitter, sad person not to accept an apology or just agree to disagree.[QUOTE=nancyD]It takes a real bitter, sad person not to accept an apology or just agree to disagree.
If anyone makes a somebody wanna put a gun to their head with all the doom and gloom it would be you.
Just because somebody disagrees with you Roxy doen't mean they are attacking you. Maybe the pain meds are making you a little paranoid and whiney.
I don't know how in your posts you say that you are positive person. If we go back a read the 3000 + posts you have posted between the two sites I'm sure the majority are doom and gloom, what you had for lunch and where it hurt and how bad, which was always different from one day to the next.
I would love to know who 1tko is so I could send them a Christmas Card and OU812 as well.
I thought you were gonna let this tread die. But you just can't help yourself can ya Rox?
Get a grip

well said nancy. i don't even know you but agree with what you posted. it irks me when i see people apologize and not one apology is accepted. it is a sign of being self centered. i post here to lighten things up and to share what little advise i have on ra; i have a sarcastic nature, i won't deny that, but someone thinks i am attacking them and i'm not. i disagree with someone but i am not attacking. it seems we are not allowed to disagree.
i would apologize, but it won't be accepted so what's the point?
This thread should have been allowed to disappear into archives, it served
