    Dr. Frascone - Mailed Ty's DNA

    rheumatoid-arthritis-blog
    Well, it's that time again.  This appointment with Dr. Frascone at 8:15 today marks my 1 year anniversary of coming to his office.  Received 2 shots in my right foot again.  Ow!  My foot burns, aches, and is difficult to walk on, but at least by tomorrow it will hopefully feel a lot better. Stopped at the pharmacy on my way home to pick up my Arava, Neurontin, and Humira.  My Humira was not ready.  Grrrr.  For some reason it wasn't even ordered, so now it won't be ready to pick up until probably Monday.  
    Mailed Ty's DNA to 23andme today.

    Cancelled injections for Right Hip

    rheumatoid-arthritis-blog
    So happy to be able to say that I was able to cancel the appointment for injections in my right hip.  The pain in gone, and I feel so much better.  I can now sleep on my sides without any discomfort.  I don't know what the last year was all about with the cysts, and exploding bursa's on my hips, but hopefully that pain will never come back again, and all I have to deal with is my rheumatoid pain.

    Hurting pretty bad today

    I got up at 5:30 am today.  Hurting pretty bad this morning.  Both shoulders.  Who knows why, but I'm not complaining because at least the pain in my lower back and hips is not acting up anymore.

    Cancelled injections for left hip

    rheumatoid-arthritis-blog
    I was scheduled to have injections in my left hip today at Dr. Guertin's, but I cancelled because the pain has went away almost entirely.  I really think the Fish Oil has helped my body tremendously!  The cyst on my L5 is gone, and now this pain is gone.  The only thing I have changed is I started taking the Fish Oil, and now Vitamin B12.

    MRI of Cervical w/ contrast

    rheumatoid-arthritis-blog
    Arrived at Mercy at 7am,registered at 7:06, and was finished and in my vehicle by 7:45.  I will probably have to go to the other Mercy to pick up the results in a couple days because Dr. Guertin will not call me and let me know the results.  I'm feeling better, so hopefully everything will come back normal.
