Thanks everyone,  you all are so helpful and nice I am grateful I found this board.  I really am trying to take it day by day as I know alot of you are.  I hope sometime I can be helpful to someone out there who is going thru this to. I have alot to learn

I finally bought some hats this past weekend since we are going to be camping and being out in the sun alot this weekend. I know some people like wearing hats but I don't so I will adjust

I hope everyone  has a great week and weekend.

july and star welcome- Gee, I have missed some of you new special folks by doing a few other things. I am so glad you have found us here. We all seem to have much in common.

These days, since I retired, and more so since mom passed away, I try to look up more on crafts,(mainly sewing) that I work on. When I physically can, I tend to my new little flower/herb garden. Also feed my fur kids,(4dogs, 1big white kitty, many wild birds)

No, I don't like retirement do I? 

God Bless Everyone

thanks Missylouwho? I have been on Restasis for years.  I would hate to know what I would feel like without it. Just in the last few months have I been having more problems with my eyes. I went to a ophthalmologist the first of the year.  He said the samething about trying eye drops until you find one that works for me. I was on salagen for awhile, I had to many issues with it.  I just read about  evoxac  on here so I might give that a try. when I was first Diagnosed
they gave me plaquenil but I was pregnant so they told me not to take it and I just never started it up again.  Right now I am on Zyflamend (herbal) that has worked wonders on my joint pain.  I am so glad that I found this site, it has been a blessing!!!   I think just knowing someone else has it was some comfort.
