the meds are pretty good..... well the one is at least.... but i have taken it before.... its a synthetic steroid. so that helps out a lot. been able to do a lot of things I havent been able to do in a while, and gaining some strength bak and what not. can walk up stairs well, can force myself to walk down, ect. still have some painful days, like today. and days where I swell up and hurt still..... but i guess on the most part.... its been really good. the meds that are specifically for the RA, wont kick in for another month or so..... so really have no insight there.

Thanks for the website!! I have several recipes alredy from friends that I am going to start to try and cook. been having fun with it so far. I really do enjoy cooking. It was battered and fried, and I was told to leave the skin on, but i guess does not make too much of a difference. I actaully wasnt sure about the doneness of the piece I ate.... but the oil was very hot, so could have jsut been me being weird about it. Yes, BG and I talked about exercises, and I am familiar with them, cause I had PT for the hand that I broke. and yes, its very das it has had to ome this far, and technically I am still not better, and now will be suffering long term for things that perhpas could have been avoided in the beginning..... but as you said.... move on forward. If I can go day to day with little to no pain, i would be happy enough. Oh, and able to walk up and down stairs like people do. Bookmarking the website.... and its that time for me.... girl is already 10 minutes late. =___= See ya later Bee, have a good day!!!!

havent started any packing yet, was going to try and work trhough some of my stuff today after a LONG nap. have not seen the place either, so gonna try to call up to the office today and see if I can check it out. Also need to get them to add new carpet, and ask them some questions about painting and what not. (some places allow it, others do not.) I am very excited about moving though. was looking at craigs list last night, and ran across a table that has 4 chairs that is only 25 bucks..... am tempted to go out and get it, but think its a bad idea to buy furniture before moving.... so am torn on it.

Kidneys O____O I tried Fish this weekend...not sure I am that brave. No, I do not think that I have your site. I posted a new fish taco recipe on mine. Could not get Cod, had to get Haddock instead wasn't sure, in he middle of cooking, if I was supposed to somehow cut the skin off or if you were supposed to eat that... had to call my g-ma to figure it out, and caught the oil in the kitchen on fire..... was quite a day!!, but all turned out fine. Yes, my mac is running on Tiger now, and I never updated when Leopard came out, and now I am in need of it to download the newest version of photoshop...... *rolleyes* hate updating computers. No, I guess I really dont have an option.... but you know.... I am honestly a little concerned. Not sure I know how to function normally anymore..... is that sad to say?? I have been sick for so long now, its normal..... Sophie, who suffers like me, says that I will not be able to again some of the things I have lost though..... like the strength in my hands and bones that have already deformed, like my extremely crooked pinky..... so am not very happy about this..... was hoping strength and dexterity would come back.

Guess I can post a Dr update.... had to switch my appointment to Friday morning, so have already been the visit was pretty anti climatic, cause I have already had every test under the sun run on me at least 3 times at this point. The Dr said that there was 7 signs to RA and you have to have 4 of them to be diagnosed. told me that I have 6 of the 7, and the only reason why i did not have the last one was because he did not want to do x-rays on me. Put me on new meds. Methatrixate, a drug I have been sort of waiting to get on.... but it can take several months to get into your system.....so while I am waiting on that, also have Prednisone, which is a synththic steroid that I have to take every other day to get me by til the good meds start to kick in. Also have a folic acid I take every day. all week I take 14 pills..... but improved from the 20 something pills a day I was taking before. Haven't gotten sick off of any of the pills yet, which is good. been dizzy both days I have been on them though. Am just hoping that everything works like it should and that I can actually be like really normal.

Just got back in from b-fast. Mindy, you should send me the recipe, would still love to try it, I am a fan of pineapple, the point is to try new things. : D Z, send me something on over, there are lots of things I don't really like, but that list is too long (ask Tanya) and most of the time I can get by with some things. let me know what you are thinking, and if for some reason I dont think i can eat it (ie a liver and onion dish will not be made in my house) then I will let you know. The only thing I ask is no pork, i really dont care for the meat. : D Did you guys see the recipe thread that popped up yesterday after my post on here??? hmmmmm. Mary send me a Korean recipe via Facebook yesterday, and I am going to try a fish dish this weekend (dont really care for fish at all to be honest.) Fish time buying fish at the market..... ugggh, gonna have to touch it..... think its gonna be worse than touching chicken. : C
