Rosie, how awful.  Do you see the hematologist soon, I hope!  You really
need to be able to get back on your meds.  Will be praying for that to
happen.

Alex,

Basically it sounds like you are going to hafta have someone knock ya
in the noggin with a blunt instrument fer a week or so til all this
clears up hey...

At least your not smoking tobacco anymore.

big desert here comes humira hugs,
johnie

Yup it sucks - no way around it.  Can thy give you anything else to ease the
pain while they get the wbc up?  Will be thinking of you.  Wish I could
share some wisdom to get you through this.  a gentle hug.  Been there and
are there and it ain't fun.

Don't resign yet.  Diane and I will tell you that you will get through
this - it will just be hard.  hang on to the string no matter how shredded
it gets. We are on the other end.

{{{Rosie}}} Gentle hugs, Sweetie. I'm in a flare right now, but I at least
have my methotrexate, arthrotec, and a tiny bit of pred.  I will add you to
my prayer list.

(((((((((((((Rosie)))))))))))))))))  your PCP doesn't even know the half of
it.

leukopenic, damn.  that just ain't fair - not on our meds.  Hang in there.

This evening we were at a program we've been doing at one of our churches.  
Long story, but one of the questions was "what is your answer to
discouragement and despair?"  Mike said something about wondering that in his
20s, but having lived too much to wonder that now.  I replied (forcefully!)
that you can still be dragged down so much you don't know how you'll get
through tomorrow.  Everyone here knows just what I mean.  You know far too
well right now.

Ask for more and better pain medicine and rest as much as you can.  Sending
prayers and vibes to straighten out whatever's going on with your bod.

(for amusement, you can picture me in a pile of dirt cleaning out the
remaining weeds to start another flower garden - sitting on my butt in the
dirt because my legs hurt too much to rake or hoe the area, gotta sit and do
it by hand.  Gives new meaning to the sandbox idea!  LOL)

{{{{{{{{{{Rosie}}}}}}}}}}

Loads of hugs & prayers & strengthening thoughts for you, my friend - you
are always on my mind, and in my heart.  Wish I could be there to hold
your hand - with a towel on my shoulder for you to cry on when you need
it.  

luv&stuff,
Denise

Rosie,

Lots of prayers and thoughts coming your way. I wish the best for you
sweetie, this needs to end.

I am around if  you need to talk. Always here for my Rosie.

I wish there was something I could do to help.

what's your wcc? what's the differential within that count?

Ooooh, ick.  I'm sorry to hear about this.  I'd been hoping that you
were doing so much better.

Having not been an Arthritis Warrior (merely a supporter), I can't
imagine what it's like.  Well, except I can sympathize with not being
able to do anything you want (if it isn't lying down, sitting watching
the same silly DVD 'cause you can't open another one - good thing I
like CSI:NY - <sigh>).

I wish I were closer, at least we could both sit together and share our
misery, and I *could* make you some hot tea (iced tea?) to help you
relax.

Rose.

I hope you get relief soon.

Wishing for better, pain free times.
