So, I haven't been on DM in quite awhile. I haven't really been able to work out much. :o( The motivation was there, just not the energy. Now I'm struggling with the motivation. Over the past 8-10 weeks, my body just fell apart. My joint stiffness has gotten so bad that some mornings I can't walk because the joints in my feet hurt so bad, my elbows and knees hurt to bend and my fingers are so tight I can't make a fist. Walking down the stairs is brutal! The fatigue is the worst part though. It reminds me of when I had Mono in high school. I just finished my 3rd round of steriods last week. The Docs are convinced that it is Auto-Immune, and they're leaning towards Rhuematoid Arthritis. I don't care what label they give it, just help me fix it so I can get back to my life! I was going to wait until after my appt with the Rheumatologist on Monday in the hopes that I'd have more answers to share instead of just whining. But as I was reading about everyone's races yetserday, I broke down in tears because I've been missing you all so much. It was the motivation I needed to get out there. I don't know if I can run much right now, but today I could walk. I'm going to take it one day at a time, that's all I can do. I'm pretty out of the loop as to what races are coming up, so if you think of it, drop me a line. I may not run it...but I'd like to come cheer y'all on! :o)

    So sorry to hear you're dealing with some serious issues. I hope the docs figure out what the problem is, and can get you back on the road again. Meantime, I admire your courage and spirit, trying to get out there and do whatever you can. I'll be praying for you.

    Praying for you. It is encouraging that you started baby steps. Even just plain walking and some swimming will do wonders. Come to Azalea gardens on any Tuesday evening in July!! Bring the kids too and Mike
