Dare I say the "R" Word?

[Pollyanna]

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/Thanx.gif Thank you all for being here for us lupus-survivors. We may suffer an awful lot, but we are survivors and the support on this board is unbelievable! I love you all! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hugbetter.gif

I will probably be MIA for awhile as ALL of my symptoms seem to have disappeared! DISAPPEARED! Can you believe it!? I thought I would redirect my energies away from in front of this computer and take advantage of this good fortune. I usually come here at night because I cannot sleep, but now I'm sleeping through the night, soooo I haven't been in chat for a while. (Of course, good sleep is good news!)

I've been on 20mg of methotrexate a week for several weeks now, and it would appear that it has done the job. I can't count the years since I've been pain-free - it has been soooooo long ago! And to think that I put off taking the metho because I didn't want to take "one more drug". Silly me!

I hope that you ALL can find pain-free days and sleep-filled nights. In the words of our governor of California, "I'll be back", but until then, my love to you all and (((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))) to everyone!

I'm glad that you are feeling much better and also sleeping better, even if I do miss our late night chats style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

Go have fun and enjoy, you sure deserve to feel good and have some semblance of normality in your life.

Pollyanna,

I am so very glad for you. Enjoy things that you haven't been able to for a long time. It would be nice if you popped in once a month or so and let us know how things are going. That will give new people hope that they can be free of symptoms as well.

Take care,
Karen

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/woohoo.gif What great news that is, i am so pleased for you and to imagine that you considered not taking this wonder drug. I hope you continue to feel this good for ever.

I agree with what Karen suggested - it would be nice to hear from you once a month.

Take care XxX Jo XxX </span></span>

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cloud9.gif Thank you all for your well wishes. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cloud9.gif

See, here it is not even 24 hours and I'm back already style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif Thank goodness it's not because I'm feeling poorly, just out of habit I suppose!

Not to worry, I won't be a stranger. After all the postitive support I've been fortunate to receive here, I'll be popping in to help out others in need. You can't get rid of me that easily! style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/coffee.gif Take care my friends!

Polly,

Glad to hear that things are going great for you. We will only whisper the "R" word style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif as we don't want your body to know what is going on!!! Kind of like a sneak attack!!! Enjoy those wonderful nights sleeping and if you ever want to come back and chat with us..........we are here!
