Hope you find this place!!!

Hi Gabelle, it's Jean (Hummingbird60). Decided as long as we have a new forum I would go with a new handle as well. Wanted something a little shorter any ways. Gracie is actually my loveable chocolate labs name. She's my buddy and keeps my feet warm, so thought I'd give her a little credit.

Hope you have been doing well. I've had a rather tough summer with some strange things going on. Had pleural effusions last month and still haven't completely recovered. I see my rheumy the week after next, but saw neuro this last Weds. He told me it looked like my lupus was acting up and urged me to get my late Oct. appt with rheumy moved up. I was lucky that they are squeezing me in 3 weeks early. As far as the MG, I have been rather weak. Especially my neck. Neuro wants me to kick up my Mestinon a bit and stay on the Cellcept. I may have to go back on Prednisone again. Though doc's are willing to do a Medrol pack and see if that kicks it out of my system before doing a long course of it again. My rheumy said she would talk to me more about it when I come in.

Good to see you post. Thanks for the message letting me know that BT is back online. I was starting to give up hope. Guess I shouldn't have doubted John for a second. Should have known he would come through. Hope others get back here soon. I have wondered all summer how everyone is doing.

Did you go back to teaching this fall? I remember you were struggling with that decision.

Take care, Gracie

Hey Jean and GaBelle...I used to be Maxs 9th on the old BT...glad to see you here.
Gabrielle

I'm glad that you found this place.
Hope the words gets out and the other MGers find there way too!!

Hey, everyone!!! I finally found it!
Can't believe how much I've missed talking with you all. Will we have our own forum again, or not? I tried another one of the mg support groups, found it cumbersome, and not really much help.
Hope everyone is doing OK. Has anyone heard from Sarge?
Hugs, Lois

Well I am back, too. Finally had to ask Jeeves where Brain Talk Communities was and ended up at PschCentral which sent me here. Although I don't post much at all, I do enjoy reading everyone's comments. I have missed you all and am glad to be back.

Cindy

I sent a link to this site to Sarge's email...maybe he'll show up!
Gabrielle

the old gang getting back together again. I missed you all too! Hope all of the others find it as well. I sent an e-mail to Lizzie. I'm sure she will join us when she can.

It may take a bit of time and a few e-mails to get the word out that the site is back.

Big thanks to John for getting us connected again!

Hugs, Jean
