Well, I am tired. I fell as thro I ran every Olympic race there was. It has been raining here and it kills my jionts but Im on MTX to help. I have been on MTX since 8/9/2016 and I can feel them work some. When does it all kick in? My stomach kills me first thing in the morning so I run get my glass of ice water, took my many pills, eat, and then wait for the pains to stop. I took my meds hours ago and my stomach is finally doing okay. My joints and FB is extremely painful. My nuero condition will continue until I see a neuro doctor. Soon I pray. My husband is very sick! He can no longer sleep and his stromach is killing him. He is unable to help me right now. There are my things I can not do right now because I need his help. I have him on a very light diet. We will go to the store and buy him some Nexeum for his stomach. My mind is helping him every moment. I love him and don't want him to be sick.
My test results from my lungs came back negative. Yeah!! No pneumonia. One good check up finally. When we come back from our cruise; they are starting me on Physical Theraupy. I have lost the ability to grab anything with my hands. My arms and legs are so skinny. I have no muscle mass. We are going to fix that by the physical therapy. Seriously, I can't wait! If I vent during the PT please remind me of the good it is doing us.
I beelieve I am a little stronger today. I believe I can do some things around the house today too. I think I am turning the corner for the good! I am going to get up and do some cleaning and packing for the cruise in 3 days. I'll let you know how I did to day. I have some positive thinking right now. I'm coming back!! Love you all helping me throught this. Thank you for prayers, thoughhts, candles, and much much more. My prayers are with you all! On the road to recovery!!

your thoughts and prayers are so awesome. without all of you, well I won't be in a good place. thank you with all my heart! you guys are my rock! Love you! Seriously!! Have a great rest of today.
I'm glad you don't have pneumonia! Sorry about your husband being sick. My mom has a hernia so she can't eat much either or she'll throw up. Just rice and chicken broth. Poor thing. It's miserable when you're that sick. I hope he feels better soon. I"m glad you are getting there little by little! Hey, I know the fall you are talking about, when it seems like you did olympics. I had that same fall 2x this past week. Oh man. And nobody believes you. My friends were like, "How could you possibly fall? Did you fall asleep standing? Did you trip?" Um, no. It's called exhaustion! Ugh. Wow, a cruise, huh? I hope you have a ball!
Have a great time on that cruise! I am doing PT and coming home soooo tired but I am looking for the strength I will get out of it. Let us know how it went when you get back!
I'm sorry to hear your husband is also struggling with his health right now. I hope he'll feel better very soon!
I had PT twice a week for nine months. Made a world of difference for me, especially in getting reacquainted with what my body can do. I'll be there to cheer you on, ineptly waving some pom poms. Take care!
What a great, positive attitude you have! I'm glad you are starting to feel better. Have fun on your cruise. God be with you.
So glad to hear that you don't have pneumonia! I hope that you enjoy your cruise. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
