It just keeps saying Login....despite shutting my computer down for the night. Thoughts?...
Hi. I don't know your gender, but I had a quick thought when I saw this....if you are female (and older) I shed a lot of head hair, but I have always had very hairy arms and legs (luckily it blends...
Have a GI. I know we have very few GIs here in the area and it is getting very difficult to get into someone as a new patient....but I am looking to see if there are other options. Also, would like...
I would say whether you have gb surgery or not depends on your symptoms and if it impacts your daily life. I had no choice but to have mine removed as stones moved to the bile duct, were large, and...
My sig line is actually a little old. Humira was in the picture, but I still stick it out with my limited meds and doing well. The "big guys" may come into play only due to the RA and possible new...
