Greetings Anne

Nice to see you here (if you know what I mean!) and to read the first pages of your blog - what have you let yourself in for?!

I like your writing style, it's refreshing to see someone writing in a light hearted way about the reality of living with PMR in between getting on as best they can with business as usual. We're fortunate, some others aren't so..

Keep up the good work and I'm sure you'll have many followers on this forum.

Thank you Mark. I am really enjoying writing the blog, and as you say just getting on with it but yesterday and today i'm not so good and so do feel for those who are really suffering all the time. My writing is helping me.

Hi Anne. Yes, you certainly do get better and worse days with PMR, and sometimes it seems to have a life of its own regardless of the meds or level of activity / 'load'. I've found that it also drains mental energy, but you just have to roll with it.

I think we share an enjoyment of writing, and it can be good therapy for some. The 'witty' (sic) stuff I find myself writing here always takes my mind away from the pain / tiredness etc, and the forum is a great source of feedback and encouragement at so many levels.
