Hi bobpink

We are a small but very friendly group here. It is good to hear from someone whose medication is working well for them.

I too think swimming is a good form of exercise as it isn't hard on the joints and muscles and also very relaxing.

I am sure we will chat some more in the future

Hi Bobbie

I tried swimming but gave up as so much was happening - must get back into it!

welcome to the forum, I am a newbie too!

I have taken up swimming 5 days a week and have found it helps me a lot :o)

Hello Bobby

Welcome to the forum, I hope you find it as comforting and helpful as I do.

I hadn't thought of swimming - mostly it's all I can do to get out of the chair at the moment and I feel so fat and sluggish that I must do something. But swimming means wearing a cossie - my poor steroid destroyed body ain't that pretty to look at. Hmmm!
