Three patients with drug resistant H1N1 died - Raleigh, NC.

Now this is scary!

I have suffered with sjogrens for several years.  My mother had it as well.  I cannot lose weight.  My doctor says most of his patients lose weight with sjogrens.  Is there anyone else out there that cannot lose weight?

That was the laugh I have been looking for all day.  Thanks

Hey Fluffie !! 

Great news and long may it continue      xx

I use the tempurpedic pillow in medium.  The small one did not help me much but I am sleeping much better.  Who would ever believe a pillow could help that much?

Hi Ellen

This is a great place to be, with many informative and caring members.  Welcome      xx

Can you explain what Black Friday is?  Sorry - I have no clue - is it something to do with Christmas shopping 

I have horrible Prednisone acne.  I had nearly perfect skin before I was started on Prednisone.  I really need to see a dermatologist about it.  Take care!

I'm so sorry you are going through such a rough time!  Where exactly is your pain?  Have you been tested for Celieac?

I agree that you really need to see a GI doc.

I have lots of motility problems and AI pancreatitis.  The pancreatitis can very insanely painful.  I can't keep anything down when it is in a bad flare.  I've ended up on a feeding tube a few times now because of it.  I've also had to have my gall bladder out because it was inflamed, infected, and leaking stones into my bile duct causing all sorts of other problems.

As far as getting enough nutrition... I would really recommend Boost or Ensure.  That's what my GI doc has me solely eat when I'm heading into a flare.  It's the easiest to digest and you still get enough calories that way. 

I really hope you get some answers and relief soon!
