{January 5, 2012}   The next step?

I’ve been told my blog is too sad and I need to lighten it up a bit.  Unfortunately, this one isn’t going to get any better.  😦  I’m currently writing this as my iPod is getting restored to factory settings.  Why is it every time you update your iPod software it loses songs or screws something royally.  Yay.

Anyway, I finally got a letter from my Rheumatologist, (ie. the last stop of specialists I can see about my hands.).  It might as well have said, “Oh good, you don’t have Lupus, as for what’s causing your hand pain, I haven’t a clue, have a great day!”.  Unfortunately this isn’t the first time this kind of thing has happened to me.  Perhaps at this point my only hope is wishing/praying it will go away.

On the upside, my holidays were great!  Baxter (my dog) got so many toys it’s ridiculous!  How about your holidays?

I know it’s frustrating trying to get a diagnosis. It took me 5 years to get the correct diagnosis for my celiac from a doctor… after getting told everything from “tropical virus” to “chronic inflammation” and “malnutrition” I was ready to write the entire medical profession off as idiotic. Hopefully, you can find a good doctor and find some relief, even if it’s just the end of not knowing what’s wrong.
