As I told my dh they only want a full bladder right? Not me making puddles on the floor, so seeing I have a 'Woolies' bladder I've only had 3 cups. (Woolies is short for Woolworths, big cheap discount chain  ) See ya later. |

I'm baaack! My bladder was excellent aparantly >lol< So glad I didn't have a forth cup! So now we have to wait a couple of days before calling the Dr. He did say there might be a couple of tiny cysts but it didn't sound major. Of course that's only the techy not the Dr. |

@sarie! Glad things went pretty well at the doctor's Jo. It IS pretty painful Mae, but this itching is now the WORST part! I have doctor appointment today. The worst part of that will getting weighed because I don't even wanna know how much I've gained since increasing my Prednisone dosage.

Thanks Jo!  Well I'm back and the appointment was okay I guess..lol. Now they are wanting to try a new drug that I have to inject into myself once every two weeks. I also have to go next week for a CT scan. |

I feel for you Tina. I wish I could wave a want and fix all your medical problems, I don't even know what exactly is wrong with you. I know prednisone is really bad for you and you shouldn't be on it for extended periods of time... *sigh*  |

Thanks Nicole! Yea it sucks. Been on this crap for THREE years now. I have an orbital psuedotumor. It is surrounding my left eye. I believe it all stemmed from chronic sinus infections and the surgery when the doc crushed my tear duct and then put a tube through it to keep it open. The infection was not completely gone so my theory is that the tube that ran through my tear duct down into my left nostril allowed some infection into my eye socket. Then in order to stop the intruder, my body formed this mass around it and caused the growth of this thing. I have mentioned this to several doctors and NONE of them have exactly denied it because they don't know. It is a VERY rare condition so there is not much info out there on it either. Now they are going to try this new thing. I will be the FIRST person this drug has been tried on for this particular disease. Such fun! I'm a guniea pig! But... I've been living with this thing for so long that I'm willing to try anything to get rid of it. |

My goodness, ladies! I hope everything is OK for both of you, Jo & Tina! A new drug sounds promising - they're finding many drugs that are for one condition working wonderfully for something else these days. Surely this doctor must've looked at your arm, too?
