consultation

[RajSangha]

went to hospital the other week to sign consent forms and have a chat, got to admit I've got good a good team looking after me, been reducing the prednisolone by one tablet a week on 35 this week been complaining about the pain in my legs and difficultly walking struggling a lot getting tired and spending time in bed don't want to do anything, also been tested for anti jo-1, two hospital appointments this, month. Staring physiotherapy again next month. Does anybody know about the process of pip. ps I think I need a good drink lol

Sorry to hear that you've been feeling worse, I can't offer any advice about any treatment as I don't know anything! I would imagine physio would help and having that extra person offering you some consideration and care might give you a boost.

Let us know how you get on and good luck

Raj. What is pip. Mary

its the new disability forms

[Hidden in reply to RajSangha]

Oh! Bet it's a nightmare to fill out. Perhaps someone at the Citizen Advice could help. Mary

[RajSangha in reply to Hidden]

the forms are filled out just waiting for a response its been over a month now waiting for an appointment to have assessment

Hi Raj, sound as though you are getting good care, stay with it once the flare has been controlled things will get a little better. glad you have applied for PIP and hope you have a good out come from it.
