I have accepted the fact, that I am going to take a digger one of these times I get a gray out.

Foo is all I can say. I will say a foo for you too....that would be foo, foo. (Sounds like a French poodle name.)

Hang in there. This crud comes in waves. I agree with MRSD.....check the meds.

I went shopping today, with my friend of 25 years, who has sarcoidosis....I say the only thing worse than being me, is being her.....she says, it is worse to be me. I dunno.

She got breathless trying on dresses (mother of the groom) and I couldn't help with the zippers....could not see, and could not grasp the zippers and clasps. I laughed and reminded her we used to bike 30 miles at a pop years ago, and now, we are exhuasted trying on gowns! Foo, foo....and one more foo for her too!

I wonder why so many of us are sick??? (With roughly the same crud.)
Foo Foo, Poo Poo, Doo Doo to us! But, sarcoidosis is nasty. Sorry to hear about your friend. My younger brother had it and then it did get better. It is now non-existent in him. Sometimes, it goes that way... Lucky for him...

I don't know why there is so much illness as you you mention. My husband and I wonder the same - especially many people we know with autoimmune disease... Were we exposed to something in the 1950's and 1960's? I was a Navy brat. Was there 'something' in my immunizations? You could get paranoid if you think about it too much... (Twilight Zone music). Or better yet, The Outer Limits.
