Ok, today I had an appointment with my rheumatologist. I am still learning a lot about Lupus and Fibromyalgia. Today I found out that the sun will not be a friend since it can trigger a flare or make a flare worse. This news was not what I wanted to hear. She recommended that when I plan to be out in the sun not only will I have to be sure to wear sunscreen but to cover up. I guess hats and sleeves will be my wardrobe from now on. Not happy. ):
Tomorrow I will be attending a seminar for Newly Diagnosed Patients at Piedmont Hospital in Atlanta. I am hoping to get a lot of my questions answered.

My quest to take my life back is not going very well. It has not been what I expected and planned. Yes, mentally I am better but breaking my shoulder before Christmas has set me back in many ways. One is my range of motion is not where it should be which has limited me and delayed being able to get settled in my new home. The second is the financial setback. My FSA will be depleated very soon which means that all of my meds and my OV co-pays will be all out of pocket. I owe at least $1000.00 to DeKalb Medical. I need to find a solution.
