I wanted to take a quick minute before I head out to my Social
Security appointment to THANK YOU all for your gracious support! As
you all know this disease is difficult on us not just physically but
mentally, and I have to say this whole 'job' issue has really taken a
toll on me. I seem to be in great pain and exteremly tired more so
now with all this stress. Soooo I am going to take a well deserved
day at the spa, and have a full body mild massage and renew my
positive attitude and get back to my happy self :) The weather here
also is not helping since it is cold and rainy (sleet) and maybe 17
degrees today! But I will hang on and I will get through this. Since
I am not currently on any medication other than my asthma meds, I will
be suffering through this pain. If it sticks around or gets worse then
my doctor will put me on a round of Prednizone, but I do not like
taking that at all! The side effects I have are yucky... weight gain,
nightmares, swelling, moodswings, just feel yucky, but lol it really
takes the pain away, crazy what we do to get through this, lol. Thanks
to you all for everything. I am truely thankful for all of you and
everything you have done to help me out in my 'messy' situation. YOU
ALL ROCK :) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU and I will keep you posted
as to any results.

Luv to you all,
Niki
