Thanks for the kind words. Yes, my mom is very ill. We have similar issues. I did have my dna check as well as Will when we were going through the fertility "stuff." I am supposedly a chromosomally healthy person. My mom has never had hers checked that I know of.
She has several suspected dx's but nothing firm either. The same seronegative ra, fibro, polyrheumatica arthritis, she also has Lyme's which they have tested me for several times. Nothing really seems to help her either and it just makes it that much harder for me to deal with because I don't want to spend the rest of my life lie I am and end up like her.

That would make sense but since I had it done at 12:30, I hadn't taken my afternoon pain pills!!!!! I had taken my usual 2 vics at 8am but didn't take anything else until I went to bed at 7:30 last night.
I must admit I was very skeptical but it definitely did do something and I do feel a little better today than I have the past few days.

I wonder if they can compare your mom's and your blood to see if there is a genetic link. This is too scary! I definately hope there is a miracle out there for you. You are too young, too beautiful a person to suffer like this!
Hope the weekend treats you well and that Monday isn't too hard on you!

Well, by Friday night I was exhausted from work. Watched some tv and went to bed. I woke up at 4am with SEVERE chest pain. I recognized the pain from the gastritis I had last year but man, was it awful. I got hubby to get me some water and ended up sleeping until 5pm Saturday afternoon. When I finally got up, felt like I had swallowed battery acid. Will made me some soup and back to bed.
When I got up Sunday around 10am, I just felt sick and wore out. Stayed in pj's all day, napped and went to bed early again. So, my weekend was a bust.
I do feel a tab bit better today. I am just so ready to feel better. I have some much yard and garden work to do and I really WANT to do it but just can't. I am trying to remain hopeful that the treatments I stared will help soon. Hopefully my blood work will be in soon as well.
