remember to drink it rather than rub it in unless you want every cat in Finland to be your friend/dinner

Oh right, forgot this.

Anywho, after the first 2-3 days of slight fever doing a rollercoaster and some mild headaches there's been no side effects. And most importantly, almost no pain on the joints. Now for the 2nd "fill-up", why the heck it has to be at 8am.

I had been meaning to ask, but here they say "no news is good news". Glad the side effects subsided.

I take it your not a fan of early mornings?

Better fill up on coffee, don't want to fall asleep during the treatment.

Who knows what they'd do to you. Wake up with some vital parts missing or something.

No news is definitely bad news here

Glad everything seems to be okay with Dowly

My right knee joint hurt when I jogged this morning that it forced me to quit halfway I hope it's nothing bad . . . .

Moin Dowly,

Usually I don't visit this section of the forum so that's why I'm late...
I feel sorry for you that you have to go through life carrying this burden.

Here's me wishing you all the very best, brother. In the long run I hope the new treatment will let you enjoy life rightly, in other words, as much as possible.

A get well kit for dowly should contain beer, roofies, condoms and phone numbers of prospective victims.

Thought to post a bit of an update:

The Remicade worked pretty well, but as my doctor's an perfectionist bitch, she decided to cut the treatment as she didn't see perfect results.

Why she doesn't see perfect results is that I still haven't gotten into that surgery I've been waiting on for the past year and she knows this. Idiot.

Aaanywho, she got me on another drug called Humira, which is one of them self-injected thingies. Sucks like a $1000 hooker, I hate needles.

At any rate, took the first injection today, should see results either way by the end of the week.
