sunshine

bring back the sun I am in so much pain with this rain and fog fatigue makes me fall asleep at a drop of a hat I hate you ra

I also hate the RA. Have lived with it for a long time. It changed me from an active person, enjoying life and working to a person who has been in constant pain, tired and feeling useless. Anyway, I am back on track with my usual treatment (which took a long time coming) and hope that in a week or so I can get out in the garden and do some work.

If I may ask, what treatment will help you get back to gardening?

[Margot2011 in reply to shareasmile]

I am now back on Humira Adalimumab and am slowly recovering and getting back to a little gardening and easy DIY.

[shareasmile in reply to Margot2011]

Thank you for your response. I am due to start Humira in 3 weeks. Good to hear it has helped you!

The thing I miss most is long bird watching walks with my dogs in the hills surrounding my home. My last dog - a beautiful english setter named Mitch, was a real gentleman. He died last august and I miss him terribly - arthritis was the cause of his demise.
