I was in the hospital for 10 days, due to my COPD. I was very short of breath and found that i was struggling to do anything . Everything was heavy.It took three different lots of antibiotics and a water tablet to sort me.

Since getting home i have had a phone call from consultant saying that i am to reduce my MTX pens from 20mg to 15mg, also to go back to monthly blood testas my kidney function had dropped. So i will have see how i go.

Hope you are all feeling pain free with the good weather.Hugs to all. XXX
