Best wishes, Alana. Live long and prosper. Love, Eileen

I, too, Alana am hoping for the best for your future. I had some wonderful patients carrying on with some serious diagnoses and it was quite remarkable and inspiring. I think of you every time I get a yearning for Umbra.

Carol's remarks are so much more eloquent than mine but I agree with Eileen and Carol 100%.

Do rule out amyloidosis.

Hi Alana, I hope that things turn around soon -- autoimmune diseases are so unpredictable. Perhaps the world slowly coming out of the pandemic will provide you with a chance to de-stress and may help your symptoms improve (God knows that the last year has brought stress and declining health to so many of us). I wish you all the best!

Alana, your rave reviews of Orpheline de Juillet are why I purchased it. I really hope your health continues to improve and you are able to enjoy your time with your family and garden.

Than km you all so very much. I always do try to look on the bright side of things. I must have misunderstood my neurologist, I had a message on my cell. We are doing Spinal tap July 27th. Thank you all for your kind thoughts. I'm happy for the inspiration I gave.

Hoping the spinal tap goes smoothly on the 27th and you get some helpful information from the procedure! I’ll be thinking of you. Carol

Alana, it's so good to hear from you. I love hearing about how your roses are doing since very few people in the southeast grow them. I'm encouraged to try some myself. I'm sorry to hear about your health problems but it's some relief that your doctors are seeking answers. I hope you will continue to find joy in your garden and that you will sometimes stop by and share your roses with us.

Carol, exactly why I am having it done. Hoping for concrete answers. I feel good, I have my bad days, don't get me wrong. But I believe I am so blessed, to feel as good as I do, and especially to the fact that I get to grow my beautiful roses, such a gift, we have to live life, no matter the one we are given. Never give up, and live to the fullest.

Thanks so much Kes! I'm glad that I inspired you! I will be sure to keep on sharing the roses with you all. And as soon as I have answers I will update.

And I wanted I thank you all again. I am overjoyed to have such a wonderful group of roses freinds, that we are able to share everything with. I may not know you all in person, but I am so happy to know you all. Everyone of your comments were heartfelt.

Alana, it is such a joy to know that there is a person like you in the world. Thank you so much for that last post of yours; what you write is so true.

I'm wishing you the best. Keep us posted, how you're doing.

Thank you both. ❤ I sure will.

I'm so glad you shared your situation with us even though it's news of additional medical symptoms we would wish you didn't have to have. We're a family here and we want to be as much support as we can be at a distance. Medical issues are frustrating and nerve wracking at the best of times and with autoimmune conditions and associated pain complicating the mix I'm sure this is a stressful time.

We are thinking of you and if you welcome it, keeping you in our prayers. You are conveying a positive spirit that goes a long way toward making just about any situation better, so we are happy to do what we can to continue to support your spirit.

Do keep us posted and we're all thinking of you

Cynthia

Best wishes...hope you continue doing well!

Best wishes from up north! Try celery juice, it won’t hurt to give it a try.

Potential Risks of Celery Juice
Celery juice contains chemicals called psoralens, which make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Drinking large quantities of celery juice could raise your chances of skin cancer and other skin problems.Celery allergies are also relatively common. If you notice itching or swelling in your mouth or on your skin after drinking celery juice, you may be allergic.

I don't drink it, besides in v8 every once in a while, but thank you❤

Hi, Alana. I hope you are well. Just a note to let you know that I sent you a message via Houzz, using the "Message" button on your profile. Hopefully you can see it!

Be careful of things like WebMD though, naturally. It'll tell you you're surely in dire straits no matter what! Information is very useful though.

Alana, I hope things progress in a positive way for you! Feel well!

Steven
