Better than a gain friend!!! 💜💜 

Weight is actually 205.6 I accidentally hit the ✔️ inflammation in the body increases fluid retention 🤷🏻‍♀️ Yesterday ended up being absolutely terrible. I went to my urgent care because the pain was awful, in tears, joints red and warm, total RA/Fibromyalgia flare. I was excited because I just dropped weight and put myself down to Gabapentin 300 mg once a day instead of 300 mg 3 times a day. But now I’m to go back and ween myself back up all the way to 1800 mg a day🙁 instead of taking the 20 mg of prednisone a day my rheumatologist sent in for me ( that I never took) I’m to take 40 mg a day for a week. I’m now doing Soma 350 mg 2-3 times a day. The script was written for 4 a day as needed.... hell no, I would die. I got a script for 30 days worth the end of summer and I had 10 left as of Sunday. My dysphasia has become a problem, so I’m getting food stuck in my throat, if I sneeze or cough, a piece will come flying back out😫 it’s a scary feeling thinking you’re going to choke or aspirate into your lungs. So not a pitty party, just, it would be nice to actually celebrate a big loss without this. I had more labs done. SMH.  

It was a gain luv😩 I couldn’t delete the post. I put my weight in the comments.  

I’m sorry friend! It hadnt loaded yet when I commented... positive thoughts your way! Hoping for you to start feeling better soon and off those meds quickly with no pain!!! It’ll be down before you know it 💜💜 

Sorry to hear, JC! 😕 Every time you get going- you get sick. Stick with it! You're making progress!  

So sorry, hang in there. I tried to 💕 earlier, but FS wasn't letting me. Thinking good thoughts for you. 

Oh my goodness!! I’m just starting a PsA flare up and steroids don’t help with weight loss... so far the pain is somewhat manageable.. sending you light and love 😢❤️🥰 

Have you ever tried an anti inflammatory diet? At least for a short while to see if it would help? I watched a movie last night called Living Proof about MS and it is amazing what a change in diet can do for some people. You seem to eat well but in healthy foods there are foods that cause inflammation. I'm curious to see if anyone has ever had a positive outcome.  

Hope you feel better! I was just reading about dysphasia. I can't swallow pills and sometimes just can't swallow. You really have a lot to deal with! 

It is what it is🤷🏻‍♀️ I even got a hiney shot yesterday for pain. Between upping meds and the shot, I was comfortable enough to go to sleep before 10. It sucks to rely on steroids for lung issues, it extra sucks to absolutely know the steroids help break a flare with RA/ Fibromyalgia 😫 I’m not a good patient when it comes to steroids for this. I already have to take them to breathe with asthma flare, bronchitis, pneumonia. Today was not as painful as I upped meds and Soma is definitely helping. I don’t like taking meds. I have done everything I can during my journey here to not just eat healthy but incorporate tumeric and other anti inflammatory spices and supplements. Today, thankful to not have yesterday’s severe pain🙌 Today was pain, not debilitating like yesterday, a lot of fatigue. Hubby helped with laundry, we shared making dinner, I took my Abnormal Psychology Final. Thank you Ash, DP, Kat, CMC444, Ireland and Fritzy♥️♥️💜💚 

CMC444, and Fritzy ♥️🙏 friends. You’re both going through it to☹️♥️♥️💜💚  

Take care of yourself JC! Sad to hear when you're not feeling well. 

No gain, no pain!!! 

Thank you Ireland ♥️ it’s interesting. I just read how smoked cheese and meats could cause a flare as well as fermented foods. I was totally eating smoked sardines and smoked cheese. Plus it’s been so cold. 

Totally a gain and pain John 😂 I accidentally hit the ✅ when trying to change my weight.  

hope things are calming down for you and the pain has subsided.  

Thanks br_e_co friend 💜💚
