Well, today was a visit to the vampires. Luckily, I got someone very good, and it was only one needle poke instead of the 6 it took last week. Today was also my methotrexate injection. Aren't I just the luckiest girl alive?
I was on the phone for about a half hour with the disability insurance people. They say they now have everything they need to approve my claim. I hope so. The woman seemed to not have a clue what Crohn's was, because she kept asking where my pain was. I must have told her it was my abdomen at least 3 times. Oh, well. She seemed incredulous that it could take 8 weeks for the medication to work, especially since I only take it once a week. However much I wish it would work instantly, I have no control over it. At least now I don't anticipate going back to work until the end of September. What a summer vacation I have! (please note the extreme sarcasm)
Tonight is family night at camp. I'm not going. I have been counting today, and I've already had 18 bms today. My poor butt hurts. And I have no idea where all this D is coming from, as I would think eventually it would run out. I think I am getting ready to give up hope.
Oh linda!! I wish there was something I could do. Feel better and if you want company I would love to visit with you. I miss our coffees.
