Cyclelops, it must be so frustrating for you to deal with the insurance issue regarding something you so desperately need in order to maintain a reasonable semblance of function...
I am glad to know that you will be receiving an infusion tomorrow; hopefully, it will help in lowering your very high ANA titer.
I understand about the pain meds. I know better than to take even as much as I am prescribed. I may require more someday and I want it to be effective if that is the case... plus, I want to keep a clear mind and it is already a challenge.
Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day for you. Mere.
