rhuemy called | Arthritis Information

ok, so i went with my mom to the kitchen'

to count calories for what im eating for dinner (btw it was 800 calories)

when i was gettin my calories written down, the phone rings

my mom goes to pick it up

the lady says "hello, i'm from doctor mccarthy's office" or somethin like that

and im thinking holy sh*t

they had sayd, they wouldnt call UNLESS there was a problem

so i was sorta freaking out and stuff

well, they talked for a few minutes

and i added the total calories of meatballs and the pasta w/ alfredo sauce

SO, it turns out. they were talkin about my blood test, that i had monday. my pee was all good, and ALSO. which made my mom happy, all the bad things they check for, the numbers went DOWN. so that means im doing better. so the doctors and my mom r happier now.

idk why she called us tho, they NEVER call us, the only other time was when my blood sugar had been 358. so this was a weird, but good piece of news.

oh and she also sayd, that we could try taking 3 mtx in the morning and 3 at night, to minimize the nausea and stuff. cuz i feel sick after mtx.

so we'll try that next week. idk, if i should be happy or not. i guess i am, at least im getting better and not worse.

i hope everyone else is having a awesome time and there RA or whatever they have isnt bothering them too much. maybe some ppl r even in remission, well i hope they r...

Glad you are doing better. thnx milly

it was sorta scary tho

i asked my mom what she was thinkin, when she answered the phone

she sayd she thought that my blood sugar was gonna be high and everything else too

and she thought we'd be headed to the ER again

that would've really sucked, LUCKILY it was like the exact oposite and we got good news, yay. my mom has a terrible migrane today, so good news should cheer her up, altho it wont fix her headache...

You have worked so hard and made such progress. I am sure your RD is as impressed as we are. This quick of a turn around would certainly be a reason for your RD to call and give some good news. Hope your Moms headache goes away soon. Migranes are not any fun at all.

I love alfredo sause. Yummmm!!!

yup the pasta with alfredo sauce was yummy

and i loved eating the grape jello for desert

grape is my favorite flavor

but it seems like we can never find it at the store

we did have some at home, but it wasnt sugar free

but im not having those blood sugar problems anymore

so an occasional treat isnt out of the question now

my mom made the jello this morning, and it was yummy

whats ur favorite flavor of jello?

Awesome news, Star! How is your ankle today?

Hope your mom's head is feeling better.

I'm a fan of cherry jello. It sounds good and we have some in the cabinet. I think I've been inspired. :)

well, my ankle still hurts a little

but its better than last night

ooh i like cherry too

i wonder if we have some here... yummy

idk maybe, we keep a ton of jello in the house

we have more grape, and we got lime

i think, maybe some strawberry and others...

cool, so ur gonna make jello now? lol

well, i hopes u like it I am not sure what my favorite flavor of jello is. Strawberry I think. My grandmother makes the most wonderful jello cake. She pokes holes in the cake and poors jello into it. Guess I need to ask her if it is strawberry or cherry.oh that sounds yummy, ive never had cake with jello in it

i wonder if my mom or grandma would try and make it someday

so yesterday at my grandma's house, we ate lunch there

and i had a cheese sandwich, and strawberry jello for desert

so then i mentioned how my mom never makes jello, thats how i got it today.. i guess

anyways even with the pasta with alfredo sauce

the meatballs and the not sugar free jello

my blood sugar was only 116 tonight, yippee!!!

i get a cookie

if i keep my blood below 140, i get a chocolate chip cookie

had my first one yesterday, it was yummy

i guess i miss regular food, maybe next week we can try mini brownies or mini cupcakes, i hope so...
