PILLS

[Shalf]

Does anyone else feel rubbish taking pills? I have been observing my mood! It is like a defiance to the control of my own body, I actually hate it!

[Hidden]

It depends. If they work I don't mind taking them at all. I actually look forward to taking benepali. Not tablets I know, but I'd feel the same if they were because i get great relief from it.

Hated taking dmards because they didn't work and made me feel like cack!

Yes definitely feel bad about taking pills. But what is the alternative? I try very hard not to take more than necessary. For the pain I find a combination of tramadol taken with paracetamol works to make thepain at least bearable

It depends if they are working and even if I know they are not good for me like steroids when

I'm in so much pain and I know they help I do like in away weird way between the 👹 And the deep blue 🌊 Same with painkillers 🙀

I've managed to turn the experience into much more of a positive thing....

Yes, I'm good at that too but some things make me puke.

Love them! It reminds me of childhood nativity calendars where you open the little door and have different shaped chocolate every day.

[Shalf in reply to Hidden]

Now that's a great idea! Pills encased in chocolate !

Obviously I'd prefer not to have to take anything, and not have a crappy disease. I take way less drugs than I used to. Hopefully I'll be able to stop painkillers soon and just have the injection.

[Shalf in reply to Hidden]

That would be ideal !

HATE taking them, especially since the steroids and painkillers are the route if my tummy problems😟 slowly slowly taking less as HOPEFULLY the cosentyx is beginning to work .. maybe... cross fingers......no pills, wouldn’t that be nice....

The dmards were awful. Couldn't stomach them. Yes, would prefer not to take them but hey ho!
