I would like to take this opportunity to thank u all for your support last year..bug hugs all round!! In actual fact let's just have ONE GREAT BIG GROUP CYBER HUG RIGHT NOW!! 🤗💜🤗💜🤗💜🤗💜Feel the love people..feel the love we all share for each other!! Oh yeah..feels good to me!! 😻😻😻😻
As far as my own journey is concerned..I took my fourth dose of mtx yesterday..n despite it being a bit tricky in the initial stages..I'm now feeling over the worst (for now)!! Had a flare (as expected) but I'm now really pleased with how it's going!! I've had no stomach issues so I can take them orally..n I'm having bloods done every two weeks which is a bit of a pain but hey..all in all..all is well in my world right now!! So I just wanted to share my news with u all because you're all fabulous!! 🤗💜🤗💜🤗💜🤗
Pic is of my left hand during recent flare..when this happens I am pretty useless..with me it seems to be more on left side although right side often joins the party!! 😔But hey right now..today..in this moment 🥊 things r good!!
Kat 😽😽 xx

Happy new year to u n I hope that u make some good progress through 2020 with us all behind u!! 😜🥊
Doaty..u never whine!! 😻This is my hand in full flare n thankfully the worst is over (for now)..skin is everything with my particular form of lupus n boy do I know it!! Soles of my feet r the same when the 🐺is attacking!! But today is a good day n u lot help me through the bad times..thank u 🤗
May 2020 be the best that it can be for u..keep on trucking!! Be the best that u can be always..no matter what!! 😽😽Xx
No really go back to your muffin coz that was me in flare over Xmas..n now I'm happy to say things r improving!!
It's u lot that keep me going through the tough times..even though I'm not chatting when this kinda thing happens I still read posts n I love the support n sharing here..with people who understand how it is!!
Happy New Year to u n I hope that 2020 brings u all that u wish for 🤗🤗🤗
Happy New Year to u Coco..we spent last summer struggling through the shingles experience n your information n support kept us going..cyber handholding all the way 🤝🤝🤝
Thank u Sue_petal for your concern 🤗🤗 Happy New Year to u!!
In answer to your question..yes I see a dermy n my GP is great!! I have all the lotions n potions because my skin is most affected by lupus!! I have betnovate n dermovate ointment which as u know r two different strengths..n I have fludroxycortide surgical tape to wrap around my fingers when they're probing difficult to heal..or cracking n splitting!! I use Dermol 500 lotion all the time n I have to keep dressing my feet coz the soles r pretty much the same as my palms!! When I flare I'm pretty much crippled!! 😔😔
However I'm very relieved n happy to be posting here again..I miss u all when I can't participate!!
OMG that looks soooo sore!!! You have been so brave and strong. So delighted meds working and that you can face this new year and decade with optimism. Great to hear your news as always. Happy and healthier new year, with my very best best wishes and large hugs, Lily
Last year I was fortunate enough to invest in a lupus handbook..u may of heard of it..it's called How To Stay Sane In Pain?!?! Believe me that book has been priceless to me!! So u especially r with me during the tough times..right here in my living room!! 😉😉
I can't believe that you get this on your poor feet as well.....how tough are you???!!! Thank you, thank you about my book, it makes me so proud when I get feed back that it has helped. Take great care of yourself, Lily
