Yay ! blood test back already from yesterday. Obviously all their time is being taken up with the virus. ESR down from 17 to 5 and Monday's CRP down from 22 to 6. So now surgery will email me result, I will then email them through to rheumys secretary. Reckon I'll be advised to remain on 40 mg for another 2 weeks making it a month, and then maybe slowly start to taper.

good.
That's good. Always better to know. 👍
Our hospital has stopped doing any blood tests, I am supposed to go back to my GP, but as our blood test nurse has just left probably a waste of time.
That’s good news Anne

Yes it is thank you...numbers back to normal now. Just a question of keeping them low. Rheumy obviously has forgotten to call me for my next move, so will continue with the 40 mg for the time being.
Good call xx
