Morning all i hope my post finds you well. Here is a bit about me and how i become so ill.
In 2001 we went to Tenerife and i got a chest infection while there and though it was treated,in the September i had another one which took over a month for me to recover from. Then in the November i went for my flu shot whereby i learnt i had had pneumonia as that was also the shot they gave.
Move forward to the new year and my fingers started to feel funny,tingling,sore etc(you get the picture) Any way i went to the drs and they sent me to the hospital which the appt. didn't come through until the September,so we went private and got told that yes he thinks it is RA,but to keep the Sept. appt. Whereby it was confirmed i had RA.
Things and dates get muddled so i won't go into trying to remember them. I have since had two knee replacements on the same knee due to the first one not being right(a story for another time) Since then i have been diagnosed with Fibro,cfs and i also have back problems which last year resulted in surgery to release the nerves. Now it is back again,seeing surgeon Saturday re; that problem.
So here i am barely able to walk far and stand much though i keep trying. My fingers are now playing up again as well. I have fluid on the knee that had all the surgeries on it as well.
My hobbies now are photography,colouring in books the adult ones and my garden,i try so hard to keep that going whatever happens to me.
The photos are of my darling hubby who takes great care of me.xxxx
