Things have been going well. We have been quite busy. We are getting ready to move. Our office is just too small. Cure4 has expanded and the office needs to expand with it! Moving is so stressful and my least favorite thing in the world, but at least it is for a good reason and it is exciting. I have been able to do some packing here and there. I usually over do it and end up needing to rest for a couple days. It is a good thing we have some time! We are also on baby watch. My cousin is going to have her baby any time now. We take care of their first son while they work and will help out while she is in the hospital. We can't wait to meet the new little guy!
I did see my Rheumatologist last week and all my numbers have returned to normal, for me. I asked him about something to treat my Raynaud's which has been worse since going off one of my blood pressure meds. With winter coming he gave me a small dose of Norvasc to hopefully help. We also agreed to try to get my Prednisone down a milligram or 2. I don't know how that will go, but it sure would be nice. I have to go super, super slow to prevent my Pseudotumor from acting up. I will start with reducing from 10mg/day to alternating between 10 and 9.5mg every other day for 2 weeks. Then 9.5 everyday for 2 weeks. That may not be slow enough I may have to spread it out to a month on each dose, we will see. Every little bit I can get down though will help! http://www.drugs.com/norvasc.html

I have Lupus when I was told It was like getting a death sentence and so years of pain insued and prednsone, plaquanel and many other drugs....I got fed up with feeling like a lab rat so I did my own research and found Calaguala( Kal-la-wall-a) this is an herb(my miracle)actually it is a fern grown in South America and sold by Advanced Alternatives. Since I have been using this I am no longer in pain and I feel great. There are no side effects and it doesn't interfere with any other meds you may need to take. I no longer take prednasone. I feel like this herb gave me my life back....good luck to you I hope you try this, what have you got to lose If it works for you like it did for me you will be pain free. praying for you Barbara
