Finally a little light!

Many of you have been kind in giving me advice and support over the last year, especially when I was 'wading through treacle'. A few weeks ago I had another steroid injection and leflunomide added to my MTX. I hardly dare say this but I'm actually starting to feel better. My joints have gone down so much that I put my wedding ring back on yesterday! A small win, I know but I'll take it and if I feel the way I do today for ever...I'll take that too! Hubby and I are off to the seaside now for a few days to celebrate.

To those of you who said to hang on in there...thank you. And to those who are still feeling like they're in a perpetual nightmare and things can never get better...hang on in there.

Much love, M xx

That's really great news, I'm so pleased for you. I remember how I felt when I could put my wedding ring back on, it was one of the best feelings I can ever remember. Enjoy your time away. x

So lovely when you finally start to feel better and can look forward rather than being stuck in the treacle! All the very best and hope this is a turning point now.
