Hi all

Just a quick catch up

Hope all my friends and others are well

I'm now back in work full time Have done two weeks cover back in my senior role

I'm gradually reducing my steroids to see how my polymyalgia rheumatica goes Failed my application for PIPS but hey that's life

My PAF has been good just off little flutter sometimes but I have learnt with all your help to block them out and breath slow .

Hope your all enjoying the nice weather if your getting the sun .

Love to you all

Yvonne x

Yes, I’m finally back at work (after a year off) working 3 days a week and loving it. I need to make sure I don’t overdo things and end up back at square one.

So true I start back on my three on three off beginning of next month Have gradually gone from 20 hours a week back to full time Take things slow and I try not to stress about getting everything done before my shift ends We have to think about our selves also now I also make sure I drink plenty fluids in this warm weather

Hi. Good news and hope things continue to go well.

Would like to say about your pip, please do reconsideration and then tribunal, there is a high chance when you get to tribunal stage that you will get it and they backdate to the date you filled your forms in.

So glad to hear you are feeling generally well, Yvonne, sorry to hear about the PIPS? Is that the equivalent of what we call disability here in the US? Amazing what they make us work through :-( But you seem to have a very good attitude and I’m glad you’re coping well with your episodes. Wishing you a wonderful stress-free summer!
