More AS facts that are probably just for me.

So I was poking around on about.com regarding muscle twitches and spasms. I slept super hard this morning and now have a knot the size of a mandarin orange in my right side (the side I slept on). I'm sure this is more of my auto-immune stuff, so I was poking around and found that About has an Ankylosing Spondylitis screening quiz. I decided to take it, and here are my results...



Now, because of my research on AS I know there were a couple things that I checked contrary that knocked down my score, but doesn't mean I don't have it. Like one of the questions was am I male or female, and because I'm female it knocked the rating down, but the reasoning there is because men are affected more than women by a ratio in excess of 2:1
And the other one that knocked my score down was that I don't have lots of eye inflammation or bowl issues. But those two are only a fraction of AS patients. Not all with AS have those, and for many it's an issue that arises as the disease continues untreated. (From what I understand in all I've read.) So just because those things aren't issues I deal with doesn't mean that AS isn't the right diagnosis. What all this does mean is statistically it would seem that a diagnosis of AS is appropriate. That treating my symptoms as such makes sense (I guess I'll crack open my Tai Chi DVD...) and that I should probably make sure my Orthopedist and physical therapists understand this issue about me.

I find the internet a real blessing. It gives me tools and resources to seek and bring questions and test results with me when I do go to my doctor visits. I've said it before and I still think it's true, that AS actually is a relief of a diagnosis to me because if my spine does fuse someday, yes my mobility will suffer, but my actual pain will greatly decrease, and that would be such a huge blessing.

I really hope that when I make posts like this one that it doesn't come off as complaining, but as informing. I know I've had this for years. It was debilitating when I worked retail, and to know now ways to rest and stretch and exercise properly has made my life so much better. Before I was at such a loss. So I share these things hopefully to raise awareness. I mean before I started really piecing this all together I had no idea that there was a type of arthritis like this. Sometimes it makes me feel like it all makes sense now, that a lot of my pain issues were not things I did to myself to cause them, but things I just didn't know because I didn't know what I was dealing with something that not everyone knows about. So I feel it important to let others know what I'm dealing with, to give validity to my disability and to let others know what to look for if they're dealing with such things as well.

So that's all for now I guess. This last week was rough sleep wise, so I never was really with it enough to make my phone calls for my appointments. I must be done Monday. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to, my sleeping is starting to even back out to 8 hours per night, or morning.

I'm still not certain if my injections are helping my AS symptoms or not, but they are helping my RA symptoms, I've actually been writing recipe cards by hand and while I have to take lots of breaks at least it's legible, so I'm happy.

5's

Anne tagged me for a meme post so here I go! (I secretly love these things, it's silly, but I enjoy them every time I'm tagged!)

SO here are the rules:

Each player answers the five questions about themselves.
At the end of the post, the player tags five more people, posts their names and then goes to their respective blogs where they must leave a comment letting them know that they have been tagged to play along.

What was I doing ten years ago?
1. Sever case of senioritis... yes, this year is my 10 year anniversary since my H.S. graduation.
2. Debating about leaving First Christian Church, Redwood City.
3. Only applying to one college and getting in. I was accepted to San Jose Christian College. I have no idea what I would have done, or where I would have gone had I not got in.
4. Scrap-booking like crazy. I had so much free time my senior year of HS, I think it was the last time I actually completed albums the years the photos were taken!
5. Went to Europe with my family and boyfriend. I kept begging him to propose to me on the Charles bridge in Prague (Yes, we had been talking marriage then, but it still wasn't formal planned yet.) Kevin had me convinced he had something else in mind, but when we were almost all the way across the bridge he got down to "tie his shoes" and proposed to me!

Five things currently on my to-do list
1. Clean every room of the house
2. Finish outstanding swaps I really should send already.
3. Buy prenatal vitamins
4. Pack for Kevin's business trip next week.
5. Make the aprons for Grandma that she requested.

Five snacks I enjoy
1. Taquitos
2. Nacho corn chips (not Dorito's so much.)
3. Corn chips with salsa!
4. Cheese
5. bananas, or fruit in general really.

Five things I would do if I was a billionaire
1. Give a bunch away to different charities / organizations / and missionaries I believe in, and family.
2. Buy Mica a vehicle.
3. Buy Kevin and I new clothes and shoes, and restock our kitchen... all the things we're doing without but still need. As well as
splurge on wish-list items, the Amazon list is crazy long since we just don't buy extras it just keeps growing.
4. Pay off credit debt, and the house. Maybe buy another property... YES! I want a cabin in Mount Index area!
5. Invest for retirement/ kids, etc.

Five of my bad habits
1. Hating the telephone so much I never call anyone.
2. Zoning out with the TV on.
3. Blogging/chatting on-line when I should be sleeping.
4. Signing up for swaps when I can't really afford the postage and shouldn't be signing up for swaps, so instead I use grocery money to pay for swaps.
5. Not eating until I'm beyond hungry because I just don't want to stand in the kitchen when my back hurts.

Five places I have lived
1. Tacoma, WA
2. Redwood City, CA
3. Thornton, CO
4. San Jose, CA
5. Bothell, WA

Five jobs that I have had
1. Baby sitter/house sitter/ dog sitter

Oh, one more before the break.

I came across this personality sorter from my friend Jennifer L.'s blog, I really like it! Seems to be a pretty comprehensive test & with reading both our answers seems pretty accurate too.

Takes a bit of time, but to a psych nerd like me I find it worth it.

Swap-Bot Tag

Cotton Picker tagged her readers who also have swap-bot profiles to answer the following five questions about their experience with Swap-Bot, so here I goes:

What was your first swap?

Beelicious' Halloween Apron swap.




What has been your favorite swap so far and why?

There have been a few that have been favorites.
Some simple ATC swaps the senders have been very generous on sending me other things they'd know from my profile I'd like. Recent favorite is the Matryoshka Doll swap that I'm still working on. But what I got, I'm going to blog it soon... she made me such a sweet little doll, all celestial and everything. And back at Christmas was another great swap. I've also loved getting to know some people there and having 1 on 1 swaps... I think I like those the best.

What has been you're least favorite swap?

The ones I've been flaked on or the person sending didn't put much effort into it. It seems like I'm not getting my package from the crafty odds and ends swap, basically that one was one were you take a flat rate mailer box and stuff it full of craft stuff you haven't used but it's still good to use so maybe someone else can use it. I was looking forward to that swap. And there was a celestial swap I've been flaked on, that's a major bummer. But for swaps I've received that I haven't really been thrilled with, well there were a few sticker swaps I was in and I never got very nice stickers in return, most of them were too old to be useful, but too new to consider vintage, basically I got junk. Some of the stickers I just went and threw in the trash because they smelled so badly of cigarette smoke!

What have you tried for the first time as part of a swap?

Pretty much everything I've done on swap-bot has been things I've done otherwise. I made a pot-holder as a new sewer for a swap, but I had also made several for Christmas presents this year too. A few posts back I made a button fairy for a challenge blog, and with how well I liked how it turned out I guess I'll join some swaps for those too over time. But so far I haven't been that adventurous. I am signed up for some felt stuffies swaps in the summer, but I don't think that will be too much different from my sock critters. I tend to try new things for the challenge blogs...

What would be your fantasy swap?

I'm pretty easy. I love anything celestial. I've been in one swap for that so far, and it's been a bummer that I still don't have that package. But I've signed up for another celestial swap. Maybe in the summer I'll make my version of a celestial swap.

I don't know too many people outside of swap-bot so if you're reading this, are one of my readers and on swap-bot let me know in the comments here. And hey, let me know your swap-bot profile address. Mine is on my sidebar.

Not the best...

Dana tagged me to post 10 random or unique things about me, so here I go.

1.) I knew in High-school that I was going to marry Kevin and spend the rest of my life with him. I was such a non-teen. While others were dating, I was courting.

2.) My cat's name is Sigmund Freud Wilson because I adopted him to stay sane after Tony Cat passed away. For anyone not familiar with Freud, he is thought by many to be a forefather of Psychology.

3.) Growing up my dreams of what I wanted to be when I grew up was constantly changing. But through it all, one dream has always remained true, and that's to be a wife & mother, I'm halfway there.

4.) I'm proud to be a housewife, I believe the woman's place is in the home. I'm very anti-feminism. I believe there is a reason women in general have nurturing souls.

5.) I'm registered Republican so I can vote in primaries, though my political views much more fall in line with Constitution Party/American Independent. I was registered American Independent when we lived in California.

6.) This year is 10 years since high-school for me. Since I went to three different schools for my 4 years of high-school I don't really have any desire to go to a reunion... I wouldn't know which school's to go for and there is no way I could afford to go to all three.

7.) My class ring is not for the school I graduated from, but the first high-school I went to. I still wished that had been where I graduated, I would have graduated early and with college credit, as it was moving to California really made my study skills lax.

8.) I'm obsessive about profiles. Now that I don't constantly change this profile, I've started constantly changing my swap-bot profile. I love swap-bot Loads of fun!

9.) I have multiple chronic illnesses. It's horrible. I'm 28 and have Rheumatoid arthritis, Poly Cystic Ovary syndrome (our infertility), loads of allergies, asthma, eczema, dysthimia (depression), and an undiagnosed reason for chronic insomnia probably related to all of the above and all the meds and vits I take for all of the above. I have one shoe-box full for meds, and one full for vits.

10.) I daily pray for guidance, wisdom and understanding, for God to reveal to Kevin and I His plans for how He intends for us to grow our family.

I'm feeling distractible, so I tag whoever reads this and feels like doing it.

Merry Christmas

You are a very thankful person - for both the big and little things in life. Your optimism is powerful. Getting through hard times is fairly easy for you.

How Thankful Are You?

Well, this is a bit of relief...

You Will Be a Cool Parent

You seem to naturally know a lot about parenting, and you know what kids need. You can tell when it's time to let kids off the hook, and when it's time to lay down the law. While your parenting is modern and hip, it's not over the top. You know that there's nothing cool about a parent who acts like a teenager... or a drill sergeant!

Would You Be a Cool Parent?

You Are Pretty Logical

You're a bit of a wizard when it comes to logic While you don't have perfect logic, you logic is pretty darn good Keep at it - you've got a lot of natural talent in this area!

How Logical Are You?

Is this really any better or different then Crystal Wilson? And about that, I was Baker... I always thought I'd fall in love with someone with a unique or exotic last name, but nope. I fell in love with a man whos last name is just as common!

Your Average American Name Is...

Barbara Lee Lewis

What's Your Average American Name?

Now lets see... what weird name can we come up with for me...

Your Uncommon Name Is:

Kanesha Georgianne Beegle

What Very Uncommon Name Should You Have?

You Are 58% Grown Up, 42% Kid

You've grown up a good bit, but you still have a way to go before you're emotionally mature. You have the skills to control your emotions, you just have to use them.

How Emotionally Mature Are You?

You Follow Your Heart

You're romantic, sentimental, and emotional. You tend to fall in (and out of) love very quickly. Some may call you fickle, but you can't help where your emotions take you. You've definitely broken a few hearts, but you're not a heartbreaker by nature. Your intentions are always good, even if they change with the wind

Do You Follow Your Head or Your Heart?

You Should Be a Poet

You have a way with words... and a talent for drawing the pure emotions out of experiences. Your poetry has the potential to make people laugh and cry at the same time. You just need to write it!

What Sort of Artist Should You Be?

Pretty true considering I wasn't too sure where this quiz was going....

The True You

You want your girlfriend or boyfriend to be more open with you. With respect to money, you spend carefully and save your pennies. You think good luck doesn't exist - reality is built on practicalities. The hidden side of your personality tends to be satisfied to care for things with a minimal amount of effort. You have a tendency to overdo things, but basically you value your friendships highly. When it comes to finding a romantic partner, you base your search on information from your friends.

Who's The True You?

Whoa! But I think my closest friends knew this about me even still...
