Well I saw my rhumatoligist on Tuesday, she confirmed that my wrist is fusing. We talked about changing more meds, problem is that the new meds will take up to 9 months to get working and my not provide the same releif, let alone less. There is a new Med in the USA that should be aproved in Canada by the summer that she thinks might be an option but we have to wait untill it is aproved.
BTW Im currently taking about 10-15 pills a day, between RA meds, meds to protect my body from the RA meds, and vitamins to supplement (because some of the RA meds affect my absorbtion of some vitamins) This is in addition to the IV I get every 5 weeks of Remicade (that usually takes 3 hours to get.)
Anyways it was not a good week, my wrist was sore from her pokeing at it, and I kept thinking how much longer will I have some sort of normal function? How long will I be able to keep working? How long will it take for me to have to be put into a Home because I can no longer care for myself??
Lucas is hurt as well, he tried to follow the ponys lead and jumped into the roundbale feeder. (made of wood) However the pony could turn around and go out the low side. Lucas couldnt and tryed to jump out and scraped some hide off the front of his hocks. It also apears that he got kicked in the chest the next day as hes a bit swolen there. It doesnt seem to hurt him too much but the swealing was affecting his movement so he got another week off. Maybe he did it so I wouldnt be temped to ride when Im hurt as well?
