I have just seen my GP and she agrees that at my age QOL is the key so tomorrow I'm going up from 6.5 mg to 12mg and I'll let you know how I get on. My GP seems happy if I stabilize at 10mg .

Sorry to hear you've experienced a few problems recently. I have to say, you look amazing for your age. Slow and steady all the way for me too. Take care and hope your new regime is successful.

What a sensible GP you have! Well done that woman and all the best to you.

I always thought age was in the mindset and it mattered more that you kept trying to do what you wanted. I still want that mindset but if you have this condition it removes that ability and it's is far more important to recover a physical position which gives you that hope. Good luck and get as well as you can.

Good morning, let's hope that going back up does the trick and great decision by Doc to back you up. QOL should always rule. 🙂
