<< "Were you given a reason why your wife should have a CT but not you?" >>

The reason she got a CT appt was because she went to the doctor. I didn't (I got sick more than 3 days after her & I seemed to have less severe symptoms even though I was sick as a dog).

<< "I hope the appointment is soon" >>

Yes the appt is soon - next week.

<< "As for Humira, it's pretty new stuff. I am confident you have googled it, however. While you are at it, you might want to google Remicade and other such medications" >>

Yes I did look it up. My rheumatologist wants to try this because of my conditions & the clinical responses seem to favor Humira. When you consider how hard most drugs are on DISH/arthritis sufferers, it's amazing. Those who have to treat it either aren't aware or learn to accept it because they want to do what it takes to get the adverse symptoms of DISH/arthritis under control.

I found it ironic that Humira & other TNF inhibitors all show a slight increase in infections, particularly upper respiratory infections. Like I want to catch pneumonia more often <<NG>>.

RE: PCP - You're right. I was just too lazy to type out primary care physician.

:-o

Enjoy your rest Holly!
