Thank you.

I don't know yet. I just got the lab results today. I have to make more appointments at VA medical. I have to take a pulmonary function test, then make an appointment with my general practice doctor, rheumotology and ophthalmology.

I am so sick of medical appointments!

I learned that in addition to my non-functioning thyroid, chronic hives and Parkinson's Disease, I now have Sjogren's Syndrome. :(

It's hard to believe sometimes how many things can go wrong with one body.

I'm in the same predicament with several different problems.

You really have my sympathy.
 
Thank you WDYS and Botts.

You would think that one disease/condition/syndrome should cancel out all others. Sadly, it doesn't work that way.
 
Reba....I'm so very sorry. Life can really suck at times.

My sister in law just found out her cancer is stage three. She had her first day of chemo yesterday....18 weeks to go.
 
Reba, there is a product called Biotene that works great for dry mouth. It comes in gel, liquid, gum etc. Some pharmacies carry it in the back.

I've seen it on the shelves in the main part of the drug stores around here. I bought some for my late husband when he was in the hospital.

That birds might not be so stupid after all! A neighbor use to have a birdfeeder up and the sparrows were at it all day . I saw two sparrows at my neighbor kitchen's window looking in it and trying to get inside their condo for some bird seeds. It was a good thing the screen was down or they would had flew right in the condo. The birds were holding onto the screen and peeping inside . :giggle:

Yeah , smoking pot when you have PD does not sound like a good idea,
you could also drop the joint very easily if your PD is really bad.
