Wow!

I am a different person than I was even a month ago. I feel GREAT! I have energy (thanks to the iron pills and amgen injections), I have not gained too much weight with regaining control (mostly) of my bloodsugars (still working on that), am seeing a psychiatrist again and adjusting meds so I'm not crippled by depression or insomnia, and working

Got gout? LOL. That's my newest thing -- right foot (first knuckle of the big toe and my ankle). The whole thing swells up, is hot to the touch, is rashed up to my mid calf, and hurts to walk on. Have to put it up over my heart for several hours (sometimes a few days) to get it to go down. At first they weren't sure what it was -- but now I've had a second "break out" of it -- I'm pretty sure. (It's usually caused by uremia.) In my case, since I know I'm already uremic, it seems to be "triggered" by over-activity. First time was Winter Solstice, as I'd spent several days cleaning and re-organizing the house before-hand. This week I tried to pace myself -- took down Xmas decs. and cleaned out the washroom. Kitchen still looks more like a garage at the moment... :-) But the long hours of activity ended up putting me to bed for most of today with the foot. (And tired, too.) I know they have treatments for it -- so another note to remember to send the doc.

Love you! And I'm so glad you found what you were looking for at Radio Shack!
