Kickas.org Forums Ankylosing Spondylitis General Discussion #1 AS Web Support Group THe Lovely DIane

Hey Steve,
I am very sorry to hear about the lovely Diane's difficulties. It sounds like something that should not be taken lightly. I know that the risk of bad news can push some of us away from going to a doctor, but in this case it could be something that can be taken care of.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Give Diane and the girls our best.

Keep Kickin'AS
Chris

Your post took me right back into the past when I had the opportunity (and the pleasure) to meet you and the lovely Di in Sturbridge, when those babies were just a twinkle in your eye. So much has happened in our lives since then but the KA bond is still holding strong, and this news was a bummer for sure

Feisty doesn't begin to describe Lady Di, she birthed three babies all at the same time after all, no small achievement. Now that she is finally getting the tests done you will get some answers and as others have said, it's truly amazing what medical science can do these days with heart problems. My love, hopes and prayers are with you both. If there's anything I can do let me know.

Cheryl

Hello your Lordship,

my diane has bravely and responsibly taken the first two tests and failed each. Doc however says that could mean blocages or could just be false positives. More tests on the way. Next is echo-stress or is it stress-echo test.

SHe had first bit of energy today in ages. An old friend visited so I don'tknow if just enthusiasm or a break in the fatigue that is signifcant.

Hope you get yourvEnbrel soon.

THanks John.

I know the two of you have been through heck and commiserate with my anxiety.

Like you say I hope it is nothing serious. Lots of not so serious woes out there that could cause fatigue like this I figure, or even if I don't fgure this to be te case that's what I'm praying for.

Thank you Fierce Lady. I have a team of my colleagues trying to enforce the unwritten contract with the unvierse which you and I know is fair. No evil shall befall my loved ones since I consented to a lifelong battery known as AS.

Bruno, very compelling negotiator, is demonstating to the universe exactly what a battery is and may be implying in his manner that if our unwritten contrat is not upheld that he shall have a schizoid break from reality causing him to batter the universal truth upholders that do not see our point of view.

( I will re-read this in a week or so to see if my point is coherent.)

Thanks Scotty.

Would only seem modstly fair that things do work out for Diane. She tolerates me. She gave me three angels when the universe declared my body unfit to create life and I made a deal with the devil to beat meto heck just not hurt my lved ones. Seems like a lock that she'll catch a break. Of course I now think that may not have been the devil but just another lawyer low on cash.

Close enough I suppose.

THanks for the good thoughts but you are not allowed to pray for me or Diane right now. PT only for you. Get that new surgical alteration working and beat the knee pain.


Thanks.

THank you SHerri. I am hoping for a simple and positive solution too. AM paying all the right people to get one. Have bribed all the lab techinicians to get psitive results and got a few extra medical reports stuffed with nothing but good news. Now if only it were that easy.

Mainly just waiting nervously with no ability to fix anything. Just comfort.

I don' know that I could watch any of my kids go through medical woes. Of course, I'm not really able to do a good job of my wife go through it either.

I have an old pair of shoes that I don't care too much about and I think if they got ill I could tough out the ordeal. Maybe I need a thicker skin.

Thanks Patrick.

The sooner this is behind her the happier I'll be. THe girl got me and that is punishment enough for a lifetime.
