Occupational health meeting

I had my OH meeting at work today with my boss.

It went much better than I could have imagined.

I will be moving classes will take a few weeks as it doesn’t just effect me.

She did mentioned to me if I had thought about other jobs that would allow me to work for many many years. I did tell her I do realise this job can’t be forever.

I’m still thinking about exploring my options about other jobs or courses / training i would like to do.

As long as I can still work with disable and special needs children I’ll be happy.

Also been on steroids for a week so far and loving it !!

They have made such a different in such a small amount of time. I’ve just reduced to 15mg today so another 3 weeks of steroids to go 🙂🙂🙂 yeah

Hi LouLamb,

Great to hear your OH meeting went well and good news on the steroids helping you. I take 5mg everyday, they make a big difference to me, I started on 35 mg 4 years ago and over time the dosage was decreased to get to this amount as a maintenance level.

I see you are Keeping positive, hope the driving is going ok 😀😀

I just really hope u don’t have to stay on the steroids long term or go up on higher doses regularly. I’m pleased they are helping u now but I hope u don’t have to be on them long term and higher doses up and down up and down!

I’ve been on them about 10 yrs and just can’t ever get off and always seem to have to increase if anything even tho I’m on immunosuressants. Doesn’t seem like I will ever get off them!

My rheumy Said just 4 weeks for the steroids, reducing by 5mg every week.

By the time that ends I hoping the leflunomide will start helping

Such good news. My 3 children have special needs and committed, caring people like you make ALL the difference to their success. My daughter’s last support worker was with her from yr1 -yr 8 and wow, what a start she’s been given.

So glad the steroids are having such impact xxx
