In the beginning of June I went to Mayo for a check-up. I had, a week before, gone of my medication. After 5 years of having Eosinophilic Fasciitis (I was diagnosed when I was eleven) my doctor gave me a clean bill of health.
I have started running and can run up to two miles at a time. I find that if I push the limit I regret it the next day. Last week my knee started hurting so I stopped, went to the doctor and found out that my knee went out of place because of my fallen arch in my left foot(my arches fell about two years ago). I am hoping to get fit with arch supports so I can get back to my running and hopefully run a 5K this fall.
I am not a medical doctor and can not tell you when or if you will be free of Eosinophilic Fasciitis. My case of E.F. was different from any my medical doctor has seen. We had no idea how I got it or when it would go away. I write to tell my story and hope that through my blog you will find comfort and hope.
Romans 12:12
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Psalms 71:5
For you have been my hope, O Sovereign LORD, my confidence since my youth.

Spring!!!
Spring!!! What a wonderful time of year...my favorite... the air is sooo clean...everything smells wonderful...and things are turning from black and white to color!!!! This spring my arthritis has been calm and I am down to 2 pills of methotrexate a week!!! Yippee!!! I will be going to Mayo in June and hope to get a clean bill of health. Exercising has been a huge benefit in staying healthy while going down on the medication. I have been exercising 30 minutes every day! I got sick twice this spring:-( not so nice but am better now and hope to stay this way for a while!!!
