RA

Ive had a lot of pain issues lately but still I'm feeling good overall if that makes sense?  I do have to get this exta iron out, I see the hematologist about it on Monday, as well as my hep doc since I never did go in and do my regular bloodwork after finishing up.  Its prob time for the yearly evaluation of my liver tumors anyway.  Last night I got a shot at the ER again for my migraine.  I'm hopeful that when I get rid of some of this iron my head pain may ease off.  It would be nice.  I noticed that in the short time from 10-5 of last year and today my hand has become so deformed from RA I'm going to have to have surgery.  I cant get the tendon on my first finger about an inch below the knuckle to retract like its supposed to.  I have this huge knot on the bone which I guess is the tendon.  Odd deal, but anyway, apparently they can fix it.  I think I'm going to have the port put back in until I get rid of all the issues with my blood count resolved, and any upcoming surgeries done because its still hard for people to find my veins and it is not a lot of fun to sit there while they poke around.  .I want to hurry things along health wise so I can get back to my life.  My son went back to Texas today :( and I want to go see him in two or three weeks so the sooner I get this stuff out of the way the sooner I can drive over there and spend some time.  My sister is coming too, from CT, with her two boys (the babies) and we are all excited about getting to spoil them.  Her husband is in the military so she's going to spend time visiting in Texas with our family while he's deployed.  Best news is... I lost FOUR MORE LBS.  yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
