I'm sorry to hear about your mum, it must be very distressing for her and for you and your sister. I hope you get your appointment soon and that things improve greatly for you. That's a lovely drawing, you are very talented. 😊
What a stunning drawing of a beautiful cat! I hope that the treatment you are given helps you to manage your pain. I think most of the treatments for Rheumatoid Arthritis can take a while to start working, so try to be patient if you possibly can. Good luck!
You have a wonderful gift , you’re very good at your drawings . Your cat looks like my cat that got ill and had to be put to sleep. I miss my cat. …. I am wishing you all the best with your moving and as you say you will get a new doctor. Is your mum moving with you ? Love to you both.
thank you rabbit65. My mom she is still in Thailand and condition is quite bad at the moment. i will go to visit she in next 2 weeks. As for me now, i'm trying to move forward😊. i would like to drawing your cat if you like. Can you send your cat picture to me?
Hello. It’s me again. I do not have a cat now. She died last year of nose cancer . I do have two poodles. Or I suppose I could try and send a picture of lily cat when she was alive.
hi! I am sorry to hear ! Your cat her died so you can send me your old pic it ok. I did not have a cat 😁 I have a dog he name Marley! I send you to see him drawing on digital art. You can sent me what you like cat or dog! I will try to do for you..don’t worry I do for you for free!like a gift as friend here 😁😁 please send to my email: hathairat.po@gmail.com I will do after I back from Thailand in Feb next years.
I’m sorry to hear of your struggles and I’m sure with the right treatment plan that things will improve for you very soon.
I live ten minutes away from Holywell. That drawing is beautiful you should be so very proud.
I am under Dr Bawendi who works out of the Wrexham Maelor hospital and he has been amazing. Not sure if he may work out of Bodelwyddan too, but he does do a clinic at Deeside Community Hospital which is local to me. The rheumy nurses are brilliant too.
I was diagnosed two years ago I’m 50 in March and it has taken me almost two years to find the right medication and although I am now on Biological injections, it is early days and my joints are still very sore. I’m a month in so will give it six months and hope to see improvements.
Thank you for your kind. My name is Poh, I am from Thailand. I'm just start take Hydroxychloroquine 3 days ago because i must back to Thailand in next 2 weeks, to visit my mom for 3 months. The doctors tell me this drug just help me in 3 months and after i come back next years i will have full treatment because the new drug must meet doctor every 2 week. I wait to meet the Doctor 2 years time and i in pain so long and think about my mom get it, it's make me feel very down and want to die all the time. Now i want to fight it again after meet a doctor and have hope not to be like my mom.
I have the doctor at Bodelwyddan. They are very good too, give me a lot of advice and many of book to read and understand want i must to do. This is a first time a have hope and my happiness come back.
Hello Poh. There are a lot of treatments for rheumatoid arthritis. If the first treatment doesn't work for you then keep on trying with your doctors help and hopefully you will find a treatment that works for you. My mother and grandmother both had rheumatoid arthritis and I started with it when I was in my late thirties. My mother and grandmother were much worse than I am because there weren't many treatments in their day. In my case, thanks to various medications available now, I was able to continue working and I'm now 68. I'm not saying it's been easy but I'm still walking. Good luck and don't give up.
