Flare again.......

Afternoon one and all. I had a rheumy appointment yesterday and it appears i am back in a flare. So injection in posteitrie(not sure if spelt right,but you get the drift) and home i came. I was suposed to go back the end of febuary but couldn't make it so i am going 6th march and hopefully it will have settled down again

I am very tired so very tired still not sleeping properally either which doesn't help. Hubby went and done the weekly shop down Nuneaton and i stayed here, then i went to Bedworth with him to get the fruit and vege,i went round on my little scooter. I was intending to walk back from the village after hubby dropped me off.He is on a course about computers for beginners so i though i would walk round the village and then home as i am now able to get one way. After lunch i felt as though i had ran a marathon. I was so exhausted i fell asleep for a bit. So that was a right off today,i will see how i feel tomorrow.

Hope you all are relatively pain free.. Sylvi.xxx

PS, how about a laugh at my expense in a onesie that i put on over the holiday....

Hi Sylvi , sorry to hear you are having a flare at the moment perhaps it was christmas that started it off .It is horrible not being able to sleep , makes you feel horrible in the day , I have been ill for a week now my joints are driving me mad and keeping me awake at night . I have only been on MTX for a couple of months so think i am expecting to much from it. I love your onesie bet it keeps you warm......hope you feel better soon .......jilly x

I love your pic Sylvi. Hope you feel a bit better soon. Do you think changing weather affects us? Changing pressure etc. I've not been sleeping well and I wonder if its that. you take care

Ladies,Jilly i wonder if your right as i haven't felt right since just before xmas. It takes a few months to feel the full extent of the mtx so don't worry too much yet.

Cathie, i certainly do believe the weather affects us, yesterday it was sunny and i wasn't half as bad as i do today.

Tilda, I just hope the injection works or i will be a miserable old so and so. I don't think i won't be going out in my onsie. That would frighten everybody. I had Grace take that for a joke but i thought that i would share with you all as we all need a bit of a laugh.

Thank you all ladies.xxx

like the onesee is it the right spelling for baby gro pajamas?. Im in the magic flare club too x

Brilliant onesie!! That would make rheumy sit up & take notice if you wear it to next appontment.... Hope the little jab in bum does the trick and you can get some good night's sleep. Pollyx

It't a grown up grow bag. I wouldn't dare go to hospital in my growbag. It seems there is a lot of us in flares at the moment,so i wish us all a better day tomorrow.xxx

Love the picture sylvi,am not brave enough to wear one plus I get up loads during the night so won,t fancy getting nearly undressed but you look great hope the injection Works soon xxx

You look fantastic Sylvie, I am glad you have got the injection, that should give you back a bit of energy and hopefully you will be back to yourself soon. You have also inspired me, i am going to get a onesie.
