Thumbs up Hey Annie!

It IS wild that all of this is going on, but I know that I am far better off than others and need to keep that in mind - when we were in Seguin this weekend, I saw a woman in th grocery store with some weird tube going from her throat to her stomach........I was feeling sorry for myself b/4, but that quickly snapped me out of it! Nothing like a dose of reality to keep thing in check!

I am not looking foward to my EMG, but have had it b/4 and @ least know what to expect! LOL! I will NOT wear shorts, though! THis whole "no sun" thing due to the pred has my legs so white that I could blind people, so he'll just have to make do with my gaucho pants - they can be pulled up far enough to do it without scaring people!

I am soooooo very happy that my pred will be reduced! THrilled! It is going to be so nice to somewhat look like myself again! I really hate it when people say "You used to be so pretty/thin"! I just want to smack them all! Who says that? I mean really?!

I'm also getting my blood work done, b/c when I had charlie horse pains b/4, my ferritin level was @ 10, so I take iron DAILY!

I will also get some fish oil. I get some of my scrips refilled 2morrow and will pick it up!

Big hugs!
Erin
