not a question but some good news......

After being diagnosed in May, and being in pain for months, I really couldn't see a way out - spiralling out of control, depressed, signed off work.....

BUT

There is hope! my meds are finally sorted; on methotrexate, sulfaslalzine and prednisolone and have been for a couple of months and feel almost normal! i never thought i would feel this good again - so there is light at the end of the tunnel. I know times can be hard, and nothing prepares you for the psychological side of things, but things do get better, even if it takes a bit of time.

So chin up, positive thinking and enjoy every good day you have :o)

Boy is it nice to hear some good news for a change. Well done to you. xxxx

Hear, Hear, it's good to read when someone is responding to treatment, it gives hope to all those who are suffering. The mantra of 'it can happen to others, it will happen to me' comes to mind.
