[Crazyjo]

I hate this disease I feel in so much pain today and my depression is at an all time low... Just can't seem to lift my mood at all today

[Trulyfedup]

Oh darling...you are right, this disease is really horrible..no one who hasn't got it doesn't understand either...I was so bad this morning I got an emergence appt with my doctor, he has given me some. Orphine...are you on good pain relief perhaps a visit to your doctor next week...I'm sending you smiles and hoping you get some respite soon....come on here and moan away...we all do and we all understand.xx

Aw. Need some sunshine don't we. Snuggle up in a blankie & treat yourself to your favourite treat. Try & think positive thoughts. You've got your new car to look forward to.

[Trulyfedup]

Sometimes it's important just to admit that things aren't good. I do hope that your day has improved. A good cry can be quite a relief. Hope this doesn't sound silly. Big hugs .

I know just how you feel. Just when I think I am doing alright, my Arthritis flared up. Like right now, they don't know if I need knee replacements. I have gone back & forth between the Arthritis & Orthopedic doctors. Now they want me to one of other Orthopedic doctors who specializes on ankles to see what is wrong with my ankles. Please continue seeing your doctor's & I hope you get better.

Hope things improve soon- if not why not pop along and see your GP, this disease is a tough one.

I hope today has been a better one for you....

Oh I do so understand how you feel. I thought it was just me who is feeling so depressed, but after reading all the comments from our friends, I know it's not. It is such an awful disease and as it has been said before me, people who do not suffer from RA have no idea of the pain it entails. Cheer up love and try to think positively. Groan. Take care.

l hate it when the so call speicalists say "you have to learn to cope with pain" they say pain control, l call it lazy doctoring,l know pain killers only mask the pain but sometimes that's what you want when the pain is really bad, most times l use my MP3 and just chill out, or use methods like relazation tapes which if you open your mind can help, even at first you feel like a total fool,
