Hi

Just wanted to say a big thank you for all the support in regards to the mtx injection. This wk I did it myself, in my tummy and I did not feel a thing. The nurse praised me, I was so chuffed. Also I have had nothing like the extreme fatigue I got last wk, so I am pleased about that. I will be able to collect all the drug & all the supporting stuff next friday. So will be able to do it at home.

It's really cold -4 at 9am in essex. I awoke with dull aches in my knees and I am slower due to the cold this morning. I had planned to pop out, so I am hoping that it warms up later, or else I won't go. At present I don't need pain relief, but I will see how the day goes.

Wrap up warmly if your out.

Take care & enjoy your wkend

Hi Sci

Really glad that the injection seems to be working well for you and that your side effects are reduced.It really is the thought thats worse than the deed!

I think a lot of people suffer in the cold so if you're going out wrap up

Have a good weekend

I'm staying this side of the front door today as i don't like the cold either. It is sunny here in bulkington as well today. The weatherman says its going to be cold for a few days yet.

Pleased to hear the mtx injection went really well for you,it isn't as bad as you thought is it.

Take care,

Love sylvi.xx

Wow Sci! No pain meds? That is fantastic. I am so glad for you, long may it stay that way!

Stay in, stay warm! XXX Loret
