Yessssssssss

Just had an econsult with my GP after my recent blood test. My CRP is 1 and that is wonderful considering I did hit 120 when diagnosed last March. My pred induced diabetes hit 58 and I was really worried but now I am normal at 44. I am down to 17mg of pred and still feeling a bit achy and painful at times but am hopeful.

Tonight I shall have a celebratory dark spiced rum and Coke Zero to celebrate. Oh and some almond nuts......

Hope you guys are well. D

It most certainly does. I will still be on my diet and treat this as a healthy holiday. D x

Don’t eat the bread at dinner as that’s always lethal 🥖 🥯

There’s always the lighter options but a little indulgence now n again 😉

Think we’re heading North as you head South 🧭
