I've had a major flare of the fibro and Ra. I did a couple hours of garden work Sunday and I guess that was too much. I hurt like heck Monday and by Tuesday, I couldn't get out of bed. My eyes flared so much, they looked like something out of a zombie movie. I've been using steroids drops several times a day but they still hurt. Will had to drive me to work because I couldn't see well enough to even drive.
My knees are agonizing. I can't even get up off the toilet without help.  My hands are throbbing masses of useless flesh. Will has the pony tail perfected since I can't do my own hair. I haven't been able to read the computer screen much less type.
Its all a little better today but not doing so well. Called the rheumy was told to give it more time. Thinking about looking for another rheumy for a second opinion but don't have the energy right now. Well, thats all my two functioning fingers can manage to type right now. Just thought I'd let you all know that I'm still here.

I just learned yesterday that my MIL may be dealing with RA too. They did hip xrays yesterday that looked suspicious and sent her for labwork.
I'm so sorry you are in this kind of pain! I'll be praying for you!

I was just going to post to see how you've been doing. I'm really upset that you're going through a flare right now. Ugh! I've been thinking about you a lot and really hoping that your meds would start working soon.
I'm sending you lots of gentle hugs, Michele.

I knew there was something wrong, I can't say exactly why... I just had a feeling it was not a good day for you. Emotionally it's not a good one for me either.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{lots of gentle HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Michele!
The image of Will doing your hair really warms my heart right now...

I was wondering if you were ok. I am sorry that you are not feeling well. I really wish you didn't have to deal with all of this pain. I would really like to try and get together this summer. I am off in 2 weeks. If you are feeling up to it I would love for you to come down with Harley to see our place, but if not then maybe we could meet halfway to do something. **gentle hugs**

Thanks Nelly! Yes, Will has been a dear! Good thing he used to have really long hair! He's not a stranger to how the rubber band works!  If I don't start feeling better, I'll be shaving my head though like he does!
