July 24, 2008 Rheumatology appt.

We are about 7 months into the recent flare up. We recieved good news again. Jacob's knee is "almost" there. The only issue we have with it right now is that he cannot bend it completely closed. The doctor thinks it is just muscle tightness. He wants him to try to stretch it every night. The inflammation is pretty much cleared. He isn't complaining of any other joint soreness.
So the plan remains the same. Keep on the current medications. So two great appointments the last couple of weeks. The next rheumatology appointment is in 4 weeks. It will be right before school starts.
