Hello all

My first post after reading posts usually first thing in the morning. I'm a 55 yr old male diagnosed in 2009 with CLL & have psoriatic arthritis since 1998. I'm self employed decorator now 35 yrs still working now 5 days a week not 6 or 7! I was admitted to hospital in August with pneumonia and after CT scans spleen enlarged bloods up & down etc. I'm to begin chemotherapy in Feb so after all this all time it's finally dawned on me. I'm calling my arthritis Alf and CLL Charlie. Hope to stay positive for my family and myself. Wish everyone a healthy peaceful Christmas & thankyou for helping me with all your posts. Mark

Hope Alf & Charlie play nicely together this Christmas Sutto and allow you a really good Christmas.

I have bad arthritis too and it’s no fun!

Best wishes and keep in touch and let us know how you go on with your treatment.
