Hi Bruce, Here I am again, hunting and pecking. That seems appropriate for a prairie chick. I have tendonitis in my left hand. It sounds strange but when the doctor moved my index finger up and down, I could feel a creaking sensation in my hand. He said he could feel it too. I had this in my right hand before. The rheumy fixed it with a short of cortisone. My BP was fine when doc checked it 3hrs after the episode. It was high for me 130/70, but good. Don’t know what that was all about. I was weak and pale all day. I feel okay today though. I’ll see what the rheumy has to say tomorrow. It sure freaked hubby, I can tell you that. Glad you aren’t sending chicken soup. You wouldn’t want me to get my feathers in a knot. <g> BJ-Sk. prairie chick "bruce" <mcode0…@rogers.com> wrote in message

Hi Shelagh, Yes, the collapse was odd. I have been known to faint when I am in a bad flare. I usually get enough warning that I can make it to the bed in time. This was so sudden. I didn’t get any indication until I knew it was happening and then I was gone. I would have landed against the wall, if hubby hadn’t been there to catch me. I started sweating profusely too, so that was different as well. I could hear his voice, but it seemed far away, and I couldn’t catch what he was saying. I think that I lost consciousness for a brief time. My last month’s blood work was better than it has been in a long time. Certainly not normal, but better. I’ll see what "herself" says tomorrow.

Response:
BJ, First so sorry that you are not feeling well. I sure wish it was Thurs also so you could be seeing the Rheumy. Stay down and rest as much as you can. Have you in my thoughts and prayers! Your print appears fine on the post! Readjust your size on your view to medium and it should look okay to you also. (the view that you were told to adjust is how it looks to you on your computer….the tools, options, send adjustments is how it appears to others. Hugs, Sherry "BJ" <B…@sk.nojunk.ca> wrote in message

Hi BJ, Looks fine here (Not big). sounds like your "view" reset itself back to what it was before the problem started. So same steps (we gave you) but reduce the size. Probably be okay after that. Thanks for letting us know. I was worried about you, still am. Hugs J-wishing today was Thursday for you so you could get to rheumy quicker.

Response:
BJ The type I see is fine. Nothing big at all. I am sorry you are having such a time of it. What made you pass out? Did they say? Or is the inflammation that apparantly your hand is having? Put a heating pad to that hand for now, and if you can elevate it on a pillow while you set or lay. I won’t keep you, just know I am thinking of you. When you feel better let us know. Please take care. Prayers are sent hon hugs janers who is cold her in ohio as well..ugh
