Seems a while since I was here. Went to the rheumatologist last Friday and ended up in the hospital till Wednesday. I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis with vasculitis which attacked my lungs, skin and joints. I was put on steroids and and auto immune suppressants along with oxygen. I am home now with oxygen whenever I get up and move around much. Most of the time I can be off of it. I am still on the medication. Have wonderful doctors. I am feeling much better and am able to breath more. Went through a battery of tests while in hospital and I'm glad that is over.
It is great to be back home with Bill and my fur babies.
