Thank you for the note. I'm gla...Hi Danielle! <br /><br />Thank you for the note. I'm glad that you have found this blog helpful and mostly that you have finally received a solid diagnosis! <br /><br />You are so right that the first months or years for some can be so scary. It's all those unknowns. <br /><br />My hope for you is that with information and answers from a team of doctors that you trust, those fears decrease and your confidence increases. I hope that your body is able to respond to your medications and fight for you! Sometimes it takes trying a few different kinds of drugs, so don't get discouraged if you don't get that magic combination on the first try. <br /><br />You've got this and I'm cheering you on! <br />MMaren Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08048494870224646242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9168970420458202860.post-79814258322498690372018-01-16T10:00:40.486-06:002018-01-16T10:00:40.486-06:00You are too sweet, Sarah - and yes I clocked an im...You are too sweet, Sarah - and yes I clocked an impressive amount of couch time!

I was diagnosed with DM in October, though suspected it when my cuticles got all red and ragged in September of 2016 and I googled what could cause that. I had rashes, scalp issues and muscle pain (but not weakness). Took 3 rheumatologists and 3 dermatologists. I'm doing well, but it was very scary for a while - because as you know this disease can be scary. Just finding others who also have it and have worked through doctors, labs, tests, etc is so helpful. Glad you are doing well!Daniellehttps://autoimmunepilotcom.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9168970420458202860.post-15925341734927842252018-01-10T15:37:50.556-06:002018-01-10T15:37:50.556-06:00All such fabulous news!
