Sorry moaning again.
Had an appointment with my Rheumatologist today or so my appointment letter said. When I arrived I was told it was with the nurse. Showed my letter and was told the letter should say the clinic nurse it was a mistake 🤯🤯🤯🤯 I took a deep breath and said fine.was asked how I was getting on with the injections. I said just fine they were easy. So she said ok let’s give you another prescription. I counted to 10 then said they are not working and produced my diary and list of problems. I could see she wanted to dismiss me but she had a student nurse with her😁 and I knew she would have to take notice 😁. So she said she would talk to consultant... I said I would wait as I knew he was in today. 5 mins later was offered a steroid injection... declined had 2 this year didn’t work..... was offered oral steroids... again declined as I felt this wasn’t the answer as I been really bad since February and the methotrexate hadn’t worked so far and I felt the steroids would only mask the problem and any more weight gain wouldn’t help. She went to speak to the Rheumatologist who said start on Sulfasalazine as of today.... everything is so difficult and if I hadn’t been using this site I wouldn’t have the knowledge to fight my corner. A god send this site.Fingers crossed this will help.
