Hi all, I love reading everyone's aches and pain problems and general
problems. With as much pain and complaints that I have ( I have RA and
trying to get pregnant so no major meds) it doesn't sound so bad after I
read everyone else problems I feel for everyone then get on with my day
knowing that it could be worse for me and one day probably will be, but for
now I can manage just knowing that if I need to vent my pain and problems,
people like you, will be there to listen its a great comfort. Thank you.

Why thank you, thank you, plenty of room in the ol' sandbox.  Jump in
anytime!
Am always up for a good party, even said the heck with it and bought some
pina colada coolers on the weekend.  (obligatory warning:  meds and booze
are a no-no!)  Of course, these days all I have to do is smell the cap and
I'm done!   To think I used to have 2, maybe even 3 drinks at a party in my
college days. (okay, maybe I'm leaving out a couple but whose really
counting!)

DEar Susan,

I also had problems trying to conceive.  After four years of
infertility treatment, I finally got pregnant.  Today I have two
wonderful 18 yo boys (yes, twins) and a charming 15 yo daughter (soon
to be 16)  But for me that was pre-arthur, at least I wasn't on the
meds for RA.  But I took a lot of meds to get pregnant.

Good luck!  It's worth the problems!

Susan,
Good luck with getting pregnant!
I hope that your RA stays quiet, and that maybe once you are pregnant
you have a remission.
Wouldn't that be great?!!!

Thanks Char, I am hopeing for a remission, it would be great to be without
pain for a few months. I have heard that RA can be turned off with pregnancy
but im not holding my breath. :-)

You're welcome, Susan.  The people on this ng are a strong support team!
Why?  Because they understand pain from FM like nobody else could, unless
they were in our bodies.  Nanny

Hee hee!  I just realized I was NOT on the AMF newsgroup when I just posted.
However, there's pain on ASA as well, and this is also a great support team!

Hi Rosie!  Doing about as good as can be expected, with Fibro-fog, plus
being a gimp ;-)  Is your new medicine(s) working in your favor?  I can't
remember which one you just started, but I remember reading your post about
it.  Hope you are better and staying out of trouble - er, hope you're better
anyhow LOL!  Nanny Glo

  Ah, the fame of infamy! LOL :-)  Yeah, I'm better on the MTX...just
arguing with the Rx plan. My RD wants me to go from 3 little pills once a
week ramping up to 6. Unless they give me the right amount in my mail order
prescription I can't take the right amount. And don't tell me you've called
and faxed my doc's office to change the 'script he wrote and they said LOWER
it...whoever said that on your end is full o' beans....buncha maroons
grumble grumble and he's not gonna like it at all when I tell him whutcha
ya'll did....heads will roll...buncha incompetents...wish we had Donna H.
with us here, still,  to set 'em on their ear. :-)

  Anyway that's whut's whut! But hey, my cholesterol's down to 185 so
that's unqualified success, eh? :-) Could be worse...could be Cat. 3! <g>

   Keep warm this winter, ok, Nannykins?

Glad your cholesterol is down. that is good to hear. Keep up the good work.

Hope the med problem with the RD goes well. Hope he/she/it will keep you on
the right dose.
