Hi folks

I guess i want to moan but at the same time explain something to stop confusion. At the moment i am going through a very rough time health wise - but asthma is not the main cause just one part of it.

I have a rare genetic condition which is gradually getting worse because this is going down hill so are my other medical conditions. I guess that explains in a nutshell why i am so down at the moment. I can barely do anything for myself and require almost 24/7 care. Sad times!

There is no current cure for my rare genetic condition so my medical team are just treating symptoms as they appear and aiming to keep me at home in my own enviroment.

Hope that makes things a little clearer and sorry if i have upset or confused anyone recently.

I'm sure you haven't really upset anyone. The thing about forums, is that it's very difficult to tell by words on the computer screen what anyone else is going through at the time they write. It's great that you can just put into words what's been troubling you, and how your symptoms are affecting your everyday life.

Fingers crossed that your symptoms become a bit more controlled and you regain some independence.

Wishing you well.

Hi Plumie, I'm really sorry to hear you're going through such a difficult time. My heart goes out to you. It's rotten to be so ill and yet you're such a caring person and have encouraged so many people. You are more understanding and do more to help than a lot of people who have good health. xxx
