Good Morning All,
Sorry for the slow reply and thanks for caring enough to check up on me. If you remember, the 1st time that I went tothis Rheumy, my files weren't coming up on his computer. So, he rescheduled me for 2 MONTHS later. I thought that was a long time seeing as it was their issues that made the appointment a basic waste of my time.
The 2 months passed and I was ready to get on with it. What do you think happened???? He says he remembered me from the last time when he couldn't get all of my info. b/c it wouldn't come through on the computer. He then proceeds to tell me that my files re still showing up as blanks...NOTHING
I was so frustrated. This huge issue should've been taken care of within the 2 mouths from the previous visit.
He looked under my tongue and stated he doesn't think that I have SS b/c my mouth would've been drier. I had just handed him my list of meds. The Evoxac was on the list. I had been taking it for almost a year. It worked great. My dentist was in awe of how quickly my mouth had improved! I had saliva. I was so happy No more chocking.
I reminded Rheumy about the fact that I had been taking Evoxac. He decided to do his own blood work on me. He said that he'll have the results in about a week. I received a message on my phone a couple of days later from his nurse.
All of the blood work came back negative!!!! I was elated.So, I thought that maybe I was miss diagnosed all of this time. When I went to see which blood testing he had put me through, all 5 tests were marked just like this: (dry mouth).
So, my question is why are ALL of the test marked " (dry mouth)."
Do you think that my being on the Evoxac would interfere with my blood work up? Why would he mak all of the testing for dry mouth?
I would be elated to have Fibro.w/o SS...big time! That's enough alone. Especially if all of this sickness is from Fibro. alone.
What I found weird is that the nurse said the results were negative and hung up the phone. Do you think that another appointment should've been mentioned?
Thanks again everyone.<3
