Hi Carolyn, lovely to hear from you and your update. I did the same to avoid hairs in my mouth. Why is it when they fall out of your head they're prickly?

It's good to have the support of your family to get you out. I have a wheelchair too which I use to avoid standing, and a mobility scooter which gives me more independence.

It's good you're listening to your body and resting when you need to. Take care, and keep in touch! xxxx love Annie

I have the same thoughts about treatment, am so torn, part of me just wants to crack on and the other wants to say enough, I'm so tired, everything wears me out and have lots of pain today in my hips and back. I feel twice my age right now.

The spring does help with mood lifting though, and it's lovely you have been out and about, hope you have a lovely day

Hi Carolyn,it's wonderful to be out,I've wheelchair also but only use it if I'm wrecked! The question is,have you a better quality of life without treatment? Are you enjoying it more? You seem to be doing the right thing for you and there is always treatment options further down the rd.Have a nice cup of tea and cake the next time your out and think of us poor mortals who have to avoid them!!
