Hello Friends!
It has been awhile since my last update and tonight's insomnia gave me the opportunity to write an update. At my most recent appointment we discussed some skin issues (inflammation causing itchiness) and I have found an amazing serum from Clarins that has helped. No more claw marks from scratching makes it easier to dress for summer LOL.
I have also continued my gluten free diet and that has helped a lot with allergies, asthma and acid reflux. Unfortunatly the acid reflux does continue to be a big problem but there aren't many options left for treatment. I have lost another 3 pounds making it difficult to find clothes in my closet that fit. This has been a little depressing.
On a positive note, I attended a birthday party yesterday evening and I was able to have fun, enjoy the festivities and keep most of my spoons.
Every day is a challenge but knowing what is wrong and having a support system has made this disease 40% better. If you know anyone that has health issues please acknowledge their struggle and lend them a hand. Having just one person near that listens and supports can make a huge difference. Thanks to all of you!
