Went and had my mammogram (negative) and pap. Found out I’m 2 years late on my colonoscopy (the center is supposed to schedule it and I have called them and they say I’m not late). This is super frustrating me because I had pre cancerous polyps and my dad and grandma has colo rectal cancer. He has a colostomy bag.
I am waiting on a referral to a new dr for it
Was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis definitely. Put on otezla if insurance will pay. If not I have to start on methotrexate.
I saw a new Dr surgeon as my other one moved. He said it’s surgery time but I knew this. I was putting it off. I was extremely comfortable with him so I scheduled March 12.
I’m having a lot of trouble losing weight. It’s lose 4 gain 5 etc. I had a dr tell me I had to be eating a lot more than I thought. I write down what I eat. I weigh it. I know. Grrrrr. I said maybe I’ll try the survivor diet.
If it makes sense I feel like my quality of life is suffering over all this and definitely the pain. My rheumatologist said I am headed to Humira. It may be months or years and that scares me. My pain keeps me awake. No sleep is raising my blood pressure. I feel like if I could lose weight it would all get better.
