Good morning! Even though today is a little overcast, it's warm and I couldn't ask for anything more. I am feeling a little achy because we are supposed to have rain tonight and tomorrow but I'm not complaining.
I guess I am still on a little bit of a high left over the good news we received about my brother Tuesday. I feel light hearted and happy. If I could kick up my feet like the horse in the picture, I would...lol.
Now that we have this behind us, we still have to wait and find out what else is going on with my brother. He is exhausted all the time, has no energy,severe headache, has a rash over his whole body and has joint pain throughout his body. It is not like my brother to come home and go straight to the couch. He is one that never sits down.
This has been going on constantly for a month now. He went to a new primary care doctor and had lab work done and now we wait to see. We are both thinking it might be rheumatoid arthritis or fibromyalgia like I have. He has a follow up appointment the end of the month. Poor thing, he has really been through the ringer.

That sounds exhausting... Hope they can diagnose whatever it is, so that he can get a handle on it.

@simone10 good. I hate doctors that just say it's your age. Like they are just wanting to pass it off and get their money without doing their job.

My thoughts are, your brother probably has a nasty viral infection. Let us know how he's progressing, O.K.?

@kobesbuddy my brother really didn't know anything was wrong with his lungs. He waited so long to go to the doctor and I was fussing at him the whole time. He felt similar to how he is feeling now, fatigue, body aches, headache, no energy. The did do another chest xray just to make sure he didn't have something again but it was clear.
