Back to normal...

Morning everyone, i am with the early bird club again. As you know i have been away at the weekend. I had my friend down from driffield for a week as my son was up there he kndly brought her down and we took her back. We had a lovely time all in,despite the fact we were both suffering with pain. Hers was all down her leg and at times she just had to go back to bed. My problem is my other hand is flaring badly at the moment and i find i am very tearful as well. I have done an awful lot of walking as my friend was using my scooter. I have overdone it with the walking and i am paying for it now. I think it is good as i am seeing the knee surgeon on wednesday so he will be able to see it as it is. The knee itself is working very well,the only thing is the swelling won't go down.

Also last thursday i saw the eye specialist about my eyes. He has said that the cauterisation in my right eye wasn't the success that it should have been. I have wondered what was wrong with it and said that though my left eye swells up,its my right eye that is causing the most pain. He put a plug in and said it might have to be done again too and i told him i was happy to have it done again as i saw much improvement afterwards. Anyway the upshot of this plug should have made my eye less painful not more,so i don't know what to do about. I am seeing him again in a couple of months time. I willo monitor it and see how it goes.

So here i am playing catch up with all your blogs and it seems i am not the only one suffering so i will give you all a collective hug from me.xxxx

Welcome back Sylvi, it's good to catch up with old friends and have a break away into the bargain. Hope that you are not suffering as much this morning,take it easy for the rest of the day. The washing etc will wait for another day. Wendy xx

You are in the wars at the moment. I hope your eyes get sorted quickly and your flaring abates. Take care xxx

I get the burning feet a lot of the time and my joints feel like they are on fire as well. I have done a lot of walking during the wekend away and there were times when i didn't know how to put one foot in front of the other. I hope the injections help you.xxx

hi sylvi, you are so kind hearted in giving up your scooter and now you are in pain rest up hun before your hols so you can enjoy them. your poor eyes hope they improve, glad you enjoyed your weekend . I hope you are feeling better soon and snap regarding the hand and swollen knee i too have most my right side of joints ie hands fingers wrists knee and ankle and two toes inflammed at present so share your pain. i've had my 4th Enbrell injection today ( the red leasion on my left leg from injecting has disappeared today) wish it would hurry and kick in altho my left side isnt too bad these days so may have already started to work lol! big soft hugs to you sylvi, lena xxx:)
