Hi All,
I hope that your holiday season is going well. I am in the middle of a flare the plaques are getting bad on my scalp and hands, constant swelling in my index finger joints ankles and feet. Neck is NOT HAPPY at all! I think I may end up calling the doctor but I am trying hard to hold out. With having a total of 6 people living in a 1400sq ft home (three of them teen girls) I am constantly being bombarded with germs. I starting teaching again this fall (YEAH) but with that I am also exposed to illness from around the Treasure Valley so I am very reluctant on going on a dose of pred or adding mtx. I am trying to stay positive but last night was a two major pain med night as well as double doses of muscle relaxents. Feeling very foggy headed today and slightly dizzy and I have to teach today.. LOL Well thanks for letting me rant a bit. It is hard to rant to my family as they don't really know what this stupid disease does to people quite like you all do! So thanks for the support and have a very Merry Christmas!
