Please keep me in your thoughts!
Hi guys!
I just wanted to pop in to ask you all wonderful people to please keep me in your thoughts.
My rheumatologist wanted me to participate in a clinical trial for RA, and after many, many months of pain, frustration, waiting, and interminable tests, I am starting the clinical trial on Monday. (FINALLY)
I am sort of freaking out a little bit. I hope all goes well; I am not expecting miracles, but I *am* hoping to return to a life that is as normal as possible.
Please keep me in your thoughts!!!
Thanks!
M~

I will be praying for good results for you. I know how debilitating chronic pain can be, both to the body and soul. I went 4 years of hardly being able to walk waiting for a diagnosis for severe pain in my hip. I was ready for a wheel chair. Finally it became clear that I needed a hip replacement ASAP. Due to negligence and doctors stereotyping me into a 'too young' category, it was totally overlooked. I hope a solution can be found for you as well.  |

We'll all be thinking good thoughts and crossing our fingers and toes for you Maria! Try and focus on the positive. I know it's hard when you are in continual pain (been there, done that). One day at a time!  |
