Location: Near Camrose, Alberta, in wet soggy Alberta
I have: ducks swimming in my backyard, LOL.....ok ok ok...I have Rhuematiod Arthritis and waiting results on my snap crackle and pop spine.
For which I take: Enbrel, MTX, percocet, and a myriad of asst. natruorpathic/herbal supplements (fish oil, omega 3, glucosamine, msm, etc...) I also supplement my health with two great kids who have learned to do housework, and we are seeing promise with a husband-in-training. I highly recommend the purchase of one or two such small beings, with thier teeny crafty hands and high energy output, such things as sweeping and dusting are finished in a snap. However, not for the fussy housekeeper, as sometimes spots are missed and jobs are rushed through to accomidate other more "fun" activities. But still mostly clean anyways (tee hee hee)
How is it going today? Not so swell, I'm sore, witchy, and there is NO, I repeat NO chocolate in this house.
What is on my mind? Ahh, well like Molly a million things>... wondering how those xrays went and what specialist gets to meet my fancy self, hmm that I've spent way to much money this month on my kids and clothes for moi, that I need to catch up on my book keeping, that I really really really wanna go camping, that I cannot wait to go on my yoga retreat and that I need to get my babes up for school.......for a start ;)
For Which I Take: methotrexate, plaquenil, prednisone, multivitamin, folic acid supplements and glucosamine/chondroitin
How is it Going Today? I am suppose to be preparing to teach my classes tomorrow, not playing on the internet like I am. I am also planning to take my three year old to the pool as soon as he wakes up from his nap this afternoon. It better not rain!
What's on Your Mind? My husband, he has been really sick this week and is finally getting better today (I hope). A sick man and an inquisitive (why is that the drivers seat mom? why does the cat do that? why can't I swallow pool water?) three year old, I am worn out this week.
For Which I Take: Enbrel, Arava, Celebrex, Darvocet or Vicodin as needed, lots of different vitamins too.
How is it Going Today? It's an absolutely gorgeous day here in SM. We put the hammock up on Sunday and I was just taking five in it. I almost felt guilty!
What's on Your Mind? All the stuff I still need to do for my daughters birthday party on Saturday. Since she's going to be 10, it's going to be a big party. I told her though that her future b-days are going to be small and simple!
I Have: RA, FM, OA, Osteoporosis, Acid reflux, bulging discs in neck and back, and the list goes on...........
For Which I Take: Enbrel, Methotrexate, plaquenil, zoloft, ultram, prevacid, miralax, trazodone, restoril, evista, vicodin as needed, a multivitamin, Vit. C, and calcium.
How is it Going Today? The fatigue is just eating me up, neck pain has moved back into muscle, instead of bone and my wrists hurt from prunning vines. No reprimands please, dh already gave it to me over the vines, "can't wait can you, blah, blah!!"
What's on Your Mind? Hmmm... wondering about CT scan results, and what baby Emily will look like. Dil is now 6 months preggie and no bed rest!!
