I slept less than four hours night before last. Last night I slept for almost 13 I think? I feel hungover because it is kind of dry in our apartment. I guess we need to dig out the humidifier.

So David got the actual test results for my ANA positive result from the doctor. And I looked up what they might mean (if they are not a lab error of course!)

Speckled - associated with SLE, Sjogren’s syndrome, scleroderma, polymyositis, rheumatoid arthritis, and mixed connective tissue disease

Uh, ok. SLE is lupus. But I don't have the rash on my face. Well, I'm not going to worry about this because there isn't much I can do about it and I couldn't get an appointment with the specialist until January. But really I am worried deep down. Rheumatoid arthritis runs in my family and is something I really don't want. My great aunt was in a wheel chair and had lost the use of her hands once she was 50. Lupus doesn't sound like a day at the park either.

Please thing good thoughts for me? I could use them this month!
