Hey Suzanne, I read your post on Toenail Fungus. How long did it take for your nails to clear up once you got your sugars and A1C right? Just curious. Mine look better but think I may need more help. Podiatrist wouldn't give me lamasil and said it was too risky!

Suzanne, the Neosporin WAS causing me huge skin problems. I should have listened to you! It is still a problem, my hand, but it's not so red any more. No more neosporin for me!

I am taking folic acid which is why I probably am not losing hair, its just changing my hair ALOT. I have always had curly, frizzy hair and now it is more wavy and less frizzy. I miss the curls but feeling healthy is much more important.

Thanks for the response, Suzanne. REALLY glad to hear you're not having any side effects, that's something I'm really worried about. Are you offsetting the methotrexate with folic acid?

Taking Care of Yourself...

Hello everyone!

My question to you is what have you done for yourself today? What have you done for self care? Self care is usually associated with health care providers but it really applies to anyone.

This can be as simple as taking a few minutes alone to listen to a song that has meaning for you, petting your cat or dog, going for a walk, having your favorite chewing gum, ect....It is different for everyone. Life i… Continue
