Lobster tails? I've never had those before. I ordered the surf and turf at Red Lobster (first trip there ever) and when they brought the plate to the table, I started crying. That rock lobster was so ugly! They laughed at me and took it away.

I was on Plaq for 5 years and unfortunately have partial blindness from bull's eye maculopathy.  Neither of the two rheum I saw during those 5 years told me that I should see an ophthalmologist!  I now have a NEW rheum.  It has been 5 years since I stopped taking plaq and my eyesight has not gotten worse or better.  Plaq. really helped me for several years, so I was afraid to stop using it.  I had no side effects when I stopped taking it.  I think if I had seen an ophthalmologist regularly the damage would have been caught soon enough to stop much of the damage.  If you take plaq please make sure to see an ophthalmologist regularly.  I wish I had known enough to have my eyes checked at the first sign of vision problems.]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:40:24 +0000 http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22383&PID=271916#271916 Rheumatoid Arthritis : OT: Lynn49 and others please help if you can... http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24362&PID=271915#271915 Author: CO_Mel

I thought maybe it might be caused by something she was taking?? Hmm...
I'm sorry you're having to see her stuggle with these symptoms and have no answer. I'm sure you'll take care of her the best you can until her doctor's appointment. Hopefully then they will be able to provide some answers for you guys or at the least, give her an rx for something to help with the symptoms (which will hopefully cure her!) ]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:18:15 +0000 http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24362&PID=271915#271915 Rheumatoid Arthritis : OT: Lynn49 and others please help if you can... http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24362&PID=271914#271914 Author: pksmdrag

Hi Mel - she takes a One-A-Day multi-vitamin and sometimes if she doesn't take that my husband makes a drink with milk and a vitamin powder.  It is just so hard seeing her missing out on life with her friends and not having any energy to do much.  I have told her about some of the people on here that have experienced a doctor telling them nothing is wrong and what some go through.   She just looks sick and pale and has a cough that exists!  She is looking really pale to me right now and says she just doesn't feel good.  Sorry, but I need to go to her now.  Oh, she isn't on any medicines right now.  Thanks.

Just like Nazi Germany and present-day China!

Lyndee,
 
I am only responding to you only in case a member that i respect, misunderstood my response to WonderWoman. Suicide is a very personal consideration and decision. I don't know of her misery or problems. I know that when I was in such great pain, I somewhat considered suicide. I did however enjoy WonderWoman and certainly appreciated her support of me. I just didn't want to be a voice of reasons without knowing the reasons.
 
Lyndee, may I suggest that you spend more time trying to make yourself look good and less time trying to make me look bad, it only makes you look bad and me look good.

You do it all by yourself Lev.

I try not to be wasteful, but I am not concerned about my "carbon footprint".  I am more concerned about the kind of country my grandkids will be living in after this administration gets though destroying it.  I am not worried that God hasn't allowed the resources to keep the world going for as long as He chooses to.]]> Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:41:44 +0000 http://www.arthritisinsight.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24365&PID=271909#271909
