First of all I want to thank all of you for your support
over the past few days (and previously!). I
sometimes think how awful it would be not to have
found this group and not to be able to share with
others who understand.

I am feeling alittle better today. I went for my
remicade treatment yesterday and the rd increased
to dose a little. I think it worked because this is really
the firt time that I have been able to feel the
difference after a treatment. The way this doctor
does things is during or after your treatment he
checks in to see how things are going, goes over
blood work etc. He is very nice but I think it frustrates
him a little whn I have lots of questions

For example, I told him about the pain I have been
having with my calcified toes, and mentioned a
couple of other things and he just told me 'let's see
how you do on this on icreased dosage'...which is
fine; I guess I'm always wanting to know the 'why' of
things. But I'm glad I can do research on the
internet.

Anyway, I think I have a bad ear and sinus infection si
going to try to get some antibiotics from my reg.
doctor. And I'm doing absolutly nothing but rest this
weekend

Thanks again everyone-don't know what I'd do
without you!!



Hey Tara.  I think I am going to start a journal.  I like my rd also but I think he thinks I ask too many questions also.  I almost feel in a panic when I leave, afraid that I forgot something!!!  I hate calling there and bugging him.  I am so glad your Remicade may be working.  I had considered Remicade but I am going to try Humira first.  The latest antibiotics seem to work fast so hopefully you will be dancing soon.
