Back in September a doctor you went to did all kinds of Lyme tests and they were sent to Igenex labs.
What ever happened? I don't remember the outcome of the tests. Do you have Lymes?
I assume they came back negative as they went to my regular gp. She is on top of everything. She would have called. It was a long shot but I was sure hoping to have anything but RA and fibro. The last few days have been the worse ever. Life is at a standstill, just waiting for the pain to subside. I so miss being busy
I feel for you. I also use to exercise alot. Walked several miles a day for years, now until my heel pain goes away I can't walk any distance at all. It's so frustrating. I just have to keep hoping that it will get better with my meds. Hang in there
You need to be sure this isn't Lymes; you were so convinced it was and if it is the RA drugs will make it worse!!
I just don't want to see you end up like my friends son. His lymes went undiagnosed for years. Now he's had 3 years of antibiotics put into him through a pic line in his chest. While he is some better - he will never be normal.
Miles, I love Kahlil Gibran. That is a good quote. I could not keep going if I lost hope that I am going to get better. Exercise is how I dealt with everything. I am so glad I have these big windows to look at the trees. There is a hike I have already planned once this flare is over. Yes, better meds. I am going to a teaching hospital and play guinea pig. I always hated doctors and now they are the only people I visit
