Good morning :)
I think I might have figured out the cause of my abdominal pains!
I googled the many meds that I take daily and Melocicam, which I take for arthritis in my left foot appears to have all the negative side effects that I have been experiencing. I called the doc & he suggested that I stop taking it for a week and see what happens... Well my last pill was Wednesday and no abdominal pains at all! YAY!! Next, I will see what he suggests what I should take for the arthritis.
A thought for the day. I spent last Saturday at a family funeral, spending the day with many cousins that I haven't seen in many years. The we're all surprised to see how disabled I have become (mobility) They all commented on what a positive attitude I ("appeared") to have and how bra ve I am. Really though, what choice do I have? Just a thought...
Hosting our annual Superbowl party Sunday. Go 49ers!

The end of my semi annual tune up comes tomorrow, when I see my MS Doc/Guru. Blood test for JCV was negative, MRI was unchanged and we'll discuss the LP tomorrow.
No if I could just get them to finish the work on my apartment, life would be beautiful!

Last Fri my oncologist sent me to another oncologist in her group. He wants to see if my insur will approve a PET scan. He says more than likely not - so this week I'll be hoping that they WILL approve it. He told me he just had a patient with a Dx of Lymphoma that they denied.
Mon & Thurs I have my swallowing PT.
Tues going to lunch with 2 ex co-workers & my old manager.
Wed meeting back with the same rheumy I saw last Apr to see if I have some sort of muscle/connective tissue disease.
And trying to finish figuring out my taxes. Usually my partner claims our house, but I think this time I'm going to claim it. This time I have about $8000 worth of medical expenses that I paid out, not including insurance or my health flexible spending acct (too bad I can't write those off, too!). Now I know where all my money/savings went this year. :-(
Morning!
Headed home today after my two weeks of fun
Frustrated over complications of changing Tysabri sites, they all have different protocols, thinking there should be some common ground
Nothing new this week but busy one next week
