After my tearfull blog on Tuesday, I thought I would give you an update. After all the fantastic advice and support I got on here, I plucked up courage and on Wednesday went to see HR. I asked if I needed to inform them in writing that I had RA and did they need to add it to my records. On Thursday my line manager said that I would be able to change my hours and go to three days a week, if I could just give her two weeks to change cover.

Call me cynical, but is that too much of a coincidence???

I would not have done anything at all without the advice I got on here.

Gentle hugs and painfree wishes to you all xxx

Its amazing what can be achieved when more than one head gets together and it has given you the power to see about getting reduced hours. Good for you. Lets hope that it will make life easier for you. sylvi.xx
