Kody, I am big into exercising. Trouble is, the joints won't bend or move. I really can barely walk. I was honestly thinking of jumping on my bike today, then realized I needed to learn to walk first.

This is the longest in 10 years I have gone without riding my bike. And the weather is so beautiful, it makes me want to cry! I think it gets really hot here in the summer, so I do need to do my outside riding soon.

Sigh...well I wish I had your mind for 5 minutes dear Angela! I could bag this job at the library in a second! Lol...but the women there just won't resign...shucks! Lol

Skylove, you are a real sweetheart, bubbling with love and joy. You can't replace what you have! Always remember God has gifted you in special ways, and he is going to use your gifts for his glory.

Well, still in a lot of pain, but very happy I can take my new meds starting tomorrow. Another baseline for my liver function. I have this "tricky" liver and the enzymes always go up, even though nothing is really wrong.

So please pray this new drug will work. And that I lose all this weight, which will really help my liver. Been there, done that. Not happy to have to lose so much weight again.

I am already missing ice cream........
Lord Jesus I lift Angela unto you that you will take this pain away and also lift up the new medication that it will do what it is supposed to do in helping her regain her freedom. I come against the enemy who is out to seek, kill, and destroy this wonderful, God-Fearing woman she has accepted God's love and joy in her life and leave the wonderful and precious woman for good. I pray for peace to fill her soul that everything will be okay. By the stripes that Christ sustained on Calvary she is healed. In your holy name. Amen

Well, I'm in my 4th month of RA meds failed. And my RA is severe. That is why I have a cane, crutches and a wheelchair. Oh, and a gurney to the ER in February.

But I hope and pray I am through the worst. If this drug works, I could be years without another worry. I've been having a lot of med failures over the past 5 or 6 years. But I am still hopeful that this new drug will work. If it doesn't kill me. Apparently, googling drugs is not a good thing. Four people died in clinical trials of this drug. Europe won't license it.

But I am getting a good deal on it! LOL

I'll be ok. God is with me, and that is all that matters.

Never google meds or diseases......That was the first thing a doctor told me....It is not the best idea.

I will agree to disagree with you. I know that when you Google medication or symptoms you find yourself worrying about every little thing. However, it is very smart to know exactly what medication you will be on before you pick it up and decide if you want to put that in your body.

We all have been wondering about you. I will keep praying that whatever is going on in your personal life it will be done according to God's will.

Thank you, Marieh. I guess I should have said family matters, rather than personal. Everything God does is according to His will and I rest in that, not in circumstances. :)

I had a feeling in my spirit that was going on. I had issues happen to me last week and I know and believe deep in my heart they are spiritual attacks because I am being obedient as God is telling me to wait and the enemy doesn't like obedience. I do agree with you on your last point. God Bless You as you move through this time. I love you.:)

well... i kind of disagree with that. i think it depends upon your medical knowledge (helps to know what some of those things indicate and reveal as well as your own ability to understand that most symptoms and diseases will indicate the most benign of conditions and results to the absolute scariest and a lot of red herrings.

for me, it's been incredibly helpful in research and proactivity to have more information at your fingertips. just don't have a coronary when you read it. : )

p.s. i think the WORST thing is the pharmacuetically-driven commercials now. we're living in an age where people are walking into doctor's offices and asking for drugs by name for conditions they don't have. *shakes head*
