WOW...It has been this long?

WOW...It has been this long since I last posted?

It's Friday May 14th. I have been staying home since Tuesday because I have been sick. I don't mean a cold/flu type of thing. I was under the weather, with pain and ache all over my body since Sunday. I had a hard time walking without being in pain. My entire body was so sensitive to touch. And my extremities were swollen. And I had a fever and was dealing with chills. Sigh. How it feels to be 30. =) But I am much better now. I just have some red cheeks and also had red blotches on my extremities. BUT I can't complain. I am not in pain as much as I was before.

I switched to UCSF and within a few weeks of seeing the rheumatologist, she was able to diagnose me and started me on some treatment. It was going good. And then she started me on another medicine. And within a week, I got sick. But we don't know if it's because of the medicine or if it's the disease flaring up.

I have to tell you that my family has been very supportive through out the entire thing. My mom came and visited me twice this week already in 3 days. She brought some foods. And Mr. JB? He's a sweetheart. He stayed home with me so that he can take care of me. He drove me to the dr's appt on Tuesday since I was in so much and knew I will have a hard time driving.

Overall, can't complain. Things can be a lot worst. I'm thankful for my health still and of course the peeps around me.
