A 2021 Christmas greeting from PMRpro

[PMRpro]

You have all been very quiet - so I'l just say I hope you have all had a very good day with no PMR/GCA related problems!

This is my Christmas corner - the flowers I was sent by my daughters and their families:

[RoadTrip]

Best Christmas wishes to you. Prezzy pile and flowers look lovely. Just finished Christmas dinner ate too much this year, and even risked a couple of spuds and gravy. Many thanks for you assistance this year and I hope this year coming is better for you than this one. Best wishes Jenny.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to RoadTrip]

Not a pressy pile - local Christmas goodies All very carby ...

[RoadTrip in reply to PMRpro]

Look lovely, why are so many scrummy foods so carby…

Put on 3lb yesterday, hoping it’s mostly fluid retention as gravy was rather salty, that might be wishful thinking though!

[Buttonshutton in reply to PMRpro]

Merry Christmas and echoing lots of people thank you for all your incredible support c

[Koalajane]

A very merry Christmas to you and thank you for all your help

Happy New Year. ❤️

Thank you PMRpro, for all the excellent advice you have given me during my first 6 months with PMR. I'm glad to see you have had plenty of prezzies and I wish you much happiness over the Christmas holiday and a fortunate New Year.

Very nice photo. I missed logging in yesterday so couldn't wish you Happy Christmas, but hope you have a very happy New Year. Thanks for all your contributions.....xx

[Dorothy61]

Thanks for all you do. It really does mean a lot and makes a real difference to our lives. All the best wishes for 2022 x

[Constance13]

Wow! The Amaryllis is amazing. Mine died when it was 12 ins high (perhaps due to the underfloor heating). My daughter has one about the same height as yours.

I don't actually like the flower and it knew (flowers always do)!😉

All the very best to you in 2022. You will probably be able to travel a little now - once these dratted mutants stop pestering us.😕

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Constance13]

It is actually a cut one from the flower shop - I used to have them occasionally in the UK but not often. Daughters sent them - too expensive to send a parcel!

[SheffieldJane]

Love and thanks so much. 💝

[123-go]

All good wishes to you PMRpro. Thank you for your guidance, your words of wisdom and for explaining those scientific articles that bemuse and befuddle us.⭐️

[Janet57]

[LCfan]

Thank you so much for everything you do for all of us here

❤️

[pegpowell]

You are a Pro of more than PMR! How I wish that was all I had, for which you have given wise advice. Thanks to you, I was able to get the diagnosis of PAD before it got worse. And solved many health issues through the years, again thanks to you. Therefore, I can still walk the dog and hope that you will never retire from this base of communication.

[Dartmoor4]

Looks very festive! Thank you for all your help and support. I have found it invaluable.

[Blackcat1M]

What a lovely Christmas corner so happy and bright.I hope you had a nice day, and wish you well for 2022 please take care.🙏💐

[Bncc]

Thank you for your most helpful advice.Happy New Year to you and yours.

[Rostom]

Thank you PMRPro for your recent advice and suggestions after my diagnosis. I am sure that many more people who don't post here are grateful too - you are indispensable!Wishing you and your family Season's Greetings and a happy and as healthy as possible New Year.

[FRnina]

Happy Boxing Day and coming New Year! Thanks for always being a stalwart and wise and humorous voice on the forum: you did this even throughout the loss of your husband which I find very courageous and simply quite amazing. The help you and others have given here has been immeasurable. My very very best wishes.

[HeronNS]

Best wishes to you for a better year in 2022. And thank you for your advice, and, dare I say it, companionship over the past few years. 🌹

[Asbeck]

Beautiful corner! Merry Christmas.

[grannyouch]

I'm sure we all hope you had a good Xmas and send you our love and gratitude! X

[ChrisinNam]

Thank you so much for your continued support, despite your own huge problems. You are very much appreciated, and I hope you managed to have a really good Christmas.

[lkcreedon]

[Anic]

Merry Christmas to you too. Im grateful for ll the support from this group. Best wishes for a pain free year and return of good health to us all.

[merril]

May your family and friends support you in the coming months just as you have supported us all in Health Unlocked.

[Raewynne]

Merry Christmas.Very quiet here in Australia.Lots of people can't see loved ones because PCR testing stations are overrun and antigen tests are non existent.This Omicron variant is spreading quite fast so testing is imperative.I just stayed at home .My carer called in .I don't want to use a taxi to go anywhere .I miss my husband very much who passed away last year but it will get better in time.I am down to 10mg .Doing one / month.I have been doing alternate days for quite a while because It's almost like I have an allergic reaction when I take it.I wish there was a way to get off Prednisolone safely but there isn't.I still get all sorts of side effects but I know they don't last so I rest up and take care of myself.Naturally I listen to my body and call the Dr if things persist particularly chest pain.Lots of love everyone.

Take care of yourselves.

[Telian]

[Herman99]

Have a wonderful time 🥰

[LindaB-66]

Wishing you PMRpro a very Merry Christmas and a Guid New Year at the bells. Where would we have all been without you over the last year. I don’t often contribute but I do come onto the site to check out the latest. I’m a wee bit down at the mo as having to go back up to 5mgs from 3.5mgs as feeling the pains again in my shoulders and thighs …… I know not to get too down as I’ll soon try again to reduce……,.. 5 years and counting.

[daisylazy]

Hope this coming year will be a good one for you. God bless your daughters for all their work during Covid. Antigen tests positive for a few family members today. Including OH. NoPCR tests available for two days. I wonder how accurate the Antigen tests are.
