Nothing, still nothing. I went to the specialist today, a rheumotologist, and I told him about my pains of the last month or so. He said he thinks it's just a virus too, however, he wanted to check for some other things and blah blah blah and I ended up giving blood again, for the third time, to check out what's wrong with me. Still no ideas. I've now been to the doctors 5 times, given blood three times, hand my hands x-rayed, provided urine samples, taken two different types of drugs, slept more days than I can count, been to the acupuncturist, drunk herbal teas, been unable to walk some nights due to the debilitating pain in my legs, propped my legs up at night on a large pillow, had my hand and wrist swell up several times, prop my arms on a pillow, put ice on various parts of my body several times a week, taken more aspirin than I can count, and no one seems to know anything. Other than I know that I have pain. At least the pain is muted due to the pain meds, but still I can tell it's there. I can feel it aching beneath the surface. Once again, maybe it's just a virus, or maybe it's arthritis or colitis or rheumatism or syphillis or spru or mono or lupus or just a virus or something. It's not just my imagination cuz the doctor's can tell something's wrong with the blood, but they don't know and no one seems to know what the problem is. The latest is that I'm to stay on the pain meds, wait for my latest results in the mail, hope that the rheumotologist does NOT call me cuz that would be a bad sign, and visit him one more time in a month.

Otherwise, I'm fine. How are you?
