Medical Update
I saw my GI today for a follow-up… Things are going pretty well with my gut, he was happy enough with where I am right now to schedule the next follow-up in 3 months. But he gave me the names of a few rheumatologists so I can schedule an appointment with one of them about my joint pain….
Let’s see…. I see the orthopedic surgeon on April 3 about my knee. I picked up the MRI films today so I have them for that appointment.
When I saw the dentist on Thursday he gave me the names of a few TMJ specialists, so I can see somebody about my jaw problems.
Is this how a 30 year old should be feeling?! lol I swear I see more doctors than anyone I know.
I ran into a women in the waiting room at my GI’s office today who thinks I may have Celiac Disease. She referred me to this website since I didn’t have a clue what she was talking about. I’ll check it out (when I find time), but I am taking it with a grain of salt–she seemed the kind of person that is worried about black helicopters and wears a tin foil hat when not in public. ;-)
So anyway, that’s where I stand today. I hurt like hell in the mornings and whenever I sit for too long. My knee pops constantly and hurts to go up and down stairs. My jaw pops worse than ever, it is getting worse, and it sometimes hurts. Will the fun ever stop?!
Oh yeah, I go in for my next Remicade infusion Monday.
