Need to ask for prayers for my daughter - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Patti · 11-01-2011, 02:49 PM

My 26 year old DD was diagnosed last year with RA. She had a bad flare up last December and they put her on Humera. She did ok for awhile but has had another worse fare up. She has had her left knee drained 5 times in 3 weeks. She had 90 cc's drained a week ago Monday and then over the weekend her knee swelled up again. She went to the rheumatologist again yesterday morning and had 100 cc's drained and a new Rx for an anti inflammatory. I went to pick it up for her and when I dropped it off in the early afternoon her knee had swollen back up. Her doctor told her to come right in and she drained 60 more cc's. Today her knee is swollen and she said it feels weird. They can't figure out what is going on. They sent the fluid to the lab and are scheduling her for an Xray and MRI. I feel so bad for her. It really impacts her life. She can't do things normal young people can do. She never complains but is getting pretty upset now. So if you could keep her in your prayers along with my DH we would so appreciate it. Thanks

Patti, I will definately keep your precious daughter in my thoughts and prayers. I certainly hope that testing will result in answers so that the medical team can better treat her.

I'll be praying for this very special young lady and your DH. It is time you all had some good news and maybe it is coming soon.

Princess10 · 11-01-2011, 05:06 PM

I said a prayer for your daughter & will continue to. My dd has RA, too, at 14. It's so hard to see our babies suffer.

I am so sorry to hear your dd is having these problems. She will be in our prayers.

14 that is so young. Would you mind sharing in a PM what medicines she has used that have worked? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks all for the prayers.
