Hard to keep going sometimes

Ernie has ankylosing spondylitis along with psoriatic arthritis. SHe also has sjogrens disease. Her last blood test some other marker was triggered, but they do not want to worry about it just yet. They said that this one, if it sticks it's nose in any deeper may become a serious problem. These diseases truly suck. Ernie has tried several of the different meds. She was taking that home injectable one, Humara. It cleared up her finger nails but that was about it. She would have lumps that lasted weeks from the injection. Has been on several pills, all with no result. They now have on an orencia infusion. She would have had her fourth one of she had not come home sicker than a dog from her trip to AZ. One of the biggest problems for her is these auto-immune disease run your immune system into the gutter. So she is real susceptible to anything that comes her way. So far she has been lucky, other than a few colds and stuff it has not been to bad. This latest things is kicking her ***, she is on her second z pack, while she is getting better her recoverer is about half the speed of what it was prior to all this crap starting. Be prepared for a lot of folks to doubt that you are sick. The wife and I get it constantly. Could be because the only thing they see is the side of her that she forces, where she is smiling and laughing and joking around. What they do not see is that she spends 10 or so days a month in her pj's, locked inside the house, absolutely miserable. There are days when we are out and about and she literally groans with every step she takes.
