disheartened :-(

I'm having a string of "down" days right now. I am tired of doctor's appointments, tests, IV days and the sick day after taking methotrexate. I've got a sleep study, a pulmonary function test and a CAT scan of my chest coming up. Nothing is wrong with my friggen lungs, it's the dermato but "we've got to be sure nothing else is going on." And the sleep study... I'm fatigued because I have dermato, not because I stop breathing at night. I'm tired of telling my doc what's going on because he'll just order another test that will come back FINE.

I have one more IVIg treatment on the books and I'm seriously considering not scheduling any other appointments. I'm tired of taking methotrexate. I don't want to have to choose whether I'm sick at work, school or clinicals. I'm tired of having one queasy, nauseous, headachy day every week.

I don't want to be on medication any more!!!
