Fed up

BethandHoney2017 profile image

I am sorry to write a moaning post but know that with this forum you all understand. So for most of December I felt the best I had in ages. Normal. Even though I am reduced pred from 4 slowly down to 3 still felt good. Had plans to be a hermit over Christmas and indulge in lots of me time. Well other people interfered with that. 🙄

Then 3 days ago cold and cough hits. I know everyone is suffering at the minute but why me. How selfish I know but it just seemed a bit unfair. Feeling very low. Then trying to be positive because no PMR pains.

The ups and downs of life.

Anyway enough of my moaning.

Best wishes to you all for the new decade and hopefully progress at whatever stage you are at on this unpleasant journey. Thanks. Knowing you are there helps.

Your experience sounds a lot like mine. I was relatively okay most of December and had a nice Christmas Day and Boxing Day. However late on Boxing Day I started with a sort throat and since then have had a raging cold with a nasty chesty cough. The dreary damp grey weather doesn't help my mood either. My youngest daughter is in Mexico for New Year. She sent photos showing a glorious blue sky and made me very envious. I'm now on 6.5 mg pred but have taken 7 mg for the last couple of days just to give me a small boost.

A bit of sunshine even if really cold would be lovely. Hope you feel better soon
