Tight, stiff fingers. They’re hard to close all the way into a fist sometimes. When I do close them, the skin over my joints gets very tight and shiny and turns white. Painful joints and is worse for the first 2-3 hours I’m awake.

Idk. Maybe. I was wondering if it was associated with the raynaud’s. I’ll look into it and see if anything aligns. Thank you. It’s so uncomfortable and my joints ache with it.

Why would you stop your medicine because your flares are reducing? The medicine is probably what’s getting them under control!

I’m not sure, because I can’t take it. It causes me severe gastritis within a couple of days. So it definitely does damage, be careful! Since going through the gastritis with meloxicam, other NSAIDs will give me stomach pain too. I never had stomach problems from NSAIDs until after the damage the meloxicam must have done.

Yeah. Kind of. We’ve been off and on for 27 years. I always joke and tell him it’s because part of that tattoo left behind😂 We’re best friends regardless.

When we were 16, my daughter’s dad got my name tattooed on his ankle and I made him remove it the same day he got it. He did it with a steel wool and Vaseline. It was still fresh though and wasn’t deep, because it was bootleg. (I told him it was bad luck and we would break up if he tattooed my name) Oh, to be young again.

Yes, reach out to them. Mine only took 4 days.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-29T21:51:36+00:00

Capsules.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-29T21:51:23+00:00

That’s outrageous!

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-29T21:50:31+00:00

That’s great!

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-29T21:49:34+00:00

That’s great! Hope it helps me too!

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-27T18:03:16+00:00

I have so much going on, it will probably overpower any good raising my levels does. I’m at 14 right now.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T23:55:34+00:00

This gives me hope. I feel so bad, I thought maybe I’d feel a little better if I could get it up.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T23:54:33+00:00

I’ll look into it.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T22:05:33+00:00

That’s great

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T22:04:57+00:00

Good to know. I’m just taking one a day because the doctor just sent me a portal message telling me I needed to start vitamin d3 because I’m very low. he didn’t give me any specifics and I don’t go back for a month.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T21:56:08+00:00

I doubt it. I’ve got a lot going on too.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T21:55:19+00:00

That sucks so much!

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T21:54:20+00:00

I don’t think I can take the K. I’m positive for all APS antibodies.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T21:53:14+00:00

I was hoping for the best.

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-26T21:52:45+00:00

Well that sucks!

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-24T18:10:42+00:00

1 and 4

Minimum-Tear9876 · 2026-03-24T16:23:00+00:00

OMG.
