ABOUT ME:

I am only 25 and I finally gave in and went to the Dr a few months ago...I have had symptoms for a few years, but I thought they were due to my occupation. I was a waitress. For allmost 10 years. And I had been killing myself at work during 2008, and really realized I had a major problem on Cristmas Day. Long story short. I wanted to work! Dr said I shouldn't, my joint damage is obvious, and she wanted me out of work. The past few months, I have tried to manage the diesease with naproxen, now prednisone..but I was a mess at work, and limping around like IGOR, not able to lift a thing, slow service...my job was threatened last week, so I swallowed my pride, and I am on temporary disability. I am trying not to be depressed, but I am in so much pain, and I am very dependent on people, even my 5 year old son. He is so amazing. He loves to help his momma. Half the time I cannot walk. I cannot go up or down stairs. I scoot or crawl. I have a 13 month old daughter, and I feel like she is not safe in my arms. I was house shopping, we were all set to buy a home for the first time. Now we decided to wait, because I have no income coming in and we can't save money...Plus we need to look harder for a house on one level, because stairs are my worst enemy. This is all happening so fast, and I am scared, and confused, and sad. I could really use some support!
