I'm Geno 2b, Stage 1, VL 3,730,000 - 36 years in the making, Contracted it during a blood transfusion after a horse accident in Tripoli, Libya. I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis. I am on permanent disability from Warner Bros where I was a motivational instructor/training...

For whatever it's worth, my autoimmune issues disappeared (gradually) once I got off tx and achieved SVR. Unfortunately there was some damage to my skin that will never go away, but I haven't had any more flare-ups in almost a year. Knock wood. Hopefully your SVR will cause the RA to quiet down too. Be well...

Hi,
I was thinking about you today, hoping you're feeling better. I think you're going to stay UND. So have a happy 4th of July, a day of independence from any symptoms.
Your Enbrel research sounds interesting. Keep us posted.

Hi, Beautiful horses you have there. I know how I felt or feel when I have a litter of pups, which I haven't for 3 years, but I canjust see the joy on your face with that baby. I could actually feel that joy LOL. I finally have a nice paint gelding. My mare was wicked so she is now in a great show home. I still have her filly, she (Ruby) is 4 now and not trained to ride yet. We also got a dbl bred Impressive mare for my hubby, She carries one of the nasty genes that Impressive passed on but I don't plan on breeding anyway.........Don't know enough about breeding horses, dogs yes. Sorry this is so long.

I read some of your journaling, and find it really helpful. Just thought you should know, thankyou. Annette, age 50 Teeswater, Ontario.

Mikkimoe - could you please do me a favor, if you have a moment? I know you've been through the RA ringer --- I posted my Quest Diagnostics results on this: http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/510770
Could you please take a moment and look at the Rheumatoid portion and see if any of it makes sense to you --- and if so --- could you please let me know what it might mean --- or not mean? Thank you so very much for your time... Hugs to ya! ---- Meki

Did you watch the Derby? Broke my heart that they had to put that beautiful filly down!

awwwwwwwwww - I'm sorry to bring up such a memory. But I'll toss a flower for you too... We have beautiful oceans here. I'll do what you recommended with my hubby's son. He's the light of my life - through thick and thin So I'll take your wisdom and use it well. Super hugs.

Yup - that's my darling angel --- about 3 months before she turned into Wednesday from the Addam's Family --- LOL! She's 11 and doing that Pre-teen thing... That all girls seem to go through - she is a GREAT kid though --- My husband's son - who is 19 - has been the light of my life --- AMAZING --- if it weren't for him - he came to live with us during my worst part of TX --- and he was going through his own growing up phase (he's schizoaffective) we kind of helped each other during that time --- if he hadn't come up and made me realize my TX was nothing compared to what he was going thru - I wouldn't have made it at all. LOL! So thank goodness for kids. (I don't always say that... LOL!)

Hey Mikki,
Like the new pic of jmjm lol. (Made me think of that song... "devil or angel"... )
That thread was just TOO funny! (Since he's getting messages from the future, maybe he should really be wearing a turban on his head and a have crystal ball in his hand, too?)
I sure hope you're feeling better soon... they say laughter is the best medicine, right? I'm keeping my fingers crossed for RVR for you on Tuesday! ~eureka
