MDJunction to me

mobey"MDJunction has become a lifeline to my recovery. I use this site as a daily coping tool where i can share my thoughts,my fears and ask ways to cope with living life with a illness. I also found new friends here and they have restore my faith in humanity. People everywhere come here to share same problems or solutions to problems we encounter in our lives. MDjunction is a wonderful site and has help not only myself but also my family and friends. I recommend this site to anyone who thinks they are alone dealing with an illness and also to those who have love ones who suffer from illnesses. I will keep spreading the word about MDJunction to organizations who deals with illnesses that would benefit having MDjunction as a support system.Bottom line is.. I found myself again through MDJunction" (mobey)

Hi Everyone,

I have had friends in town the past week, and because the boys took off school to visit, I've been helping them get caught up...and I've been recovering.

We hiked, snowmobiled, and hiked some more. Needless to say I'm a bit exhausted.

I'm doing really well. I'm down to 2 mg of prednisone but still having aches everywhere. Not sure if that will ever go away. I also get tired easily and have headaches. But I guess it's all better than flaring. I'm even able to workout...almost everyday. Super excited. I've even toyed with the idea of going back to work on a "PRN" status...So all good news really... I'm ALMOST human. But, I'm not sure if I'm feeling better because I"m NOT working. HHmmm. I'm all ready for Christmas and just want it over with because we go to Costa Rica Jan.5..YAHOO...get this, I'm evening tanning..just short minutes..I am burning easily but doing pretty good. I'm pushing it, aren't I???????? Devil

Well, I hope all of you are doing well. I'll try to check in more. It seems the better I feel the less I'm online....my sons like to play on the computer too. Talk soon.

I am so glad you are felling better. I can't say anything about doing a lot because when I feel good I do the same. Whether or not I pay for it reveals itself within a few days. It is exciting that you may try to go back to work PRN. I would just say make sure you rest a little before your vacation. Good luck!

Sounds like things are going very well for you right now. Just try not to push yourself to hard and hopefully your trip will go well.
