Dr appt 2day & thurs! I use 2 trust specialist & really thought they knew what they were talkin about! Since i was diagnosed with discoid lupus & have a ton of other symptoms, but not "enough" symptoms/problems according to their criteria....i have begun 2 think Drs r not as intelligent or knowledgeable as i once believed!

Toooo much sun 2day...all 4 the luv of my sweet 7 yr old. But now i feel like i was hit by a truck!

Day packed wit dr appts!!! Happy day off 2 me! Let me jus explain sumthin & this mayb TMI...but PMS & lupus r not friends!!! Lupus flares r a definite event when havin PMS!! Why, why, why?!?!?!

Charlie horse in my toes!!!!! WHY?!?! & it keeps coming & going!!!

Fatigue, fatigue, fatigue!!!! Pain in my wrist!!! Drs appts next week.....same stuff different day/week....

Pain, pain, pain!! Why is my neck/throat soooo sore?! Normally i would take motrin/ibuprofen 4 this type of pain, but since i cut back on my motrin use because of abnormal labs, guess i have 2 pray this xtra strength tylenol works! *sigh*

Sooooo much pain......ooooouuuuucccchhhh....my leg is killin me.....weird pain, indescribable!!! It doesnt seem like itz gonna stop hurtin anytime soon....

Joints hurtin...been doin too much lately! Rippin & runnin, rippin & runnin....too much...causin me fatigue...pain...lupus flare! Gonna go 2 bed early & start rippin & runnin all ova again in the am! As my life turns & does back flips!

I am having what we would call a "lupie" day!!! I jus t dont feel good @ all!! :(

Wow. Been awhile as usual! Trying 2 figure out why my finger tips (cuticle area) r bright red & swollen?! Not painful though, so i'm grateful 4 that! But it is ugly!!! This whole process is annoying! Geuss i should go & see the rheumatologist like i'm suppose 2, but i think i have made my feeling clear about all these doctors!...they r getting on my nerves, bcuz they don't have answers 2 my questions (usually)! Ugh!!!!

Been a long time btween posts! Soooo busy all the time! Being a mom, being a nurse, doing work 4 God, thinking/planning on moving soon, mayb gonna start a new job search & sumwhere in there trying 2 find time 4 me!! The latter doesnt happen nearly enuff! I'm getting 2 the point of exhaustion, overwhelmed & just plain ole whipped! Prayerfully, i will b able 2 rein in my stress level, so i dont get thrown in2 a lupus flare! Wow. As my life spins near the level of out of control.......

PAIN.....still!

PAIN!!!! hips, back.......PAIN!!!

Not feelin 2 good last few dayz! I had run out of my blood pressure med about a month ago & i couldn't get it refilled because my Dr moved & was no longer my Dr. (i would never advocate sumbody not taking an important prescribed medicine!) as i waited for my appt with my newly found physician, i monitored my blood pressure 2 make sure nothing crazy was goin on. What i did notice was my Raynaud's symptoms were worsening! I hadn't realized how much they had improved since i started the blood pressure medicine! So i finally saw my new dr this past Tues & re-started my blood pressure med....but i have had a severe migraine & i'm still not feelin quite rite yet....body adjustment phase after starting blood pressure med? Idk, but i'll keep an eye on it...as my world flip flops & thrashes back & forth in pain!

HEADACHE!!!
