Well hello there, how are you all? Coping? Not coping? In pain? or pain free?

Well I am still on 20mg pred til I speak with my fabby doc this coming week. Not sure I am ready for a further reduction though to be honest as have a bit of stiffness and pain in my neck and my arms well trying to peg out this morning was like watching a robot malfunction. Hubby did see this and came to the rescue which was a first. I think he is now realising how much pain I can actually be in. I got moaned at by all the kids today for not having prepped the veg in time to eat at 2pm. we had a houseful with my parents and my eldest daughter etc. I let rip at them saying that there are 6 in this house not just me so some help would have been good ta very much. Anyway needed to change washing over on the line and our son who is 18 on Thurs carried it out for me.

Got my appointment for rheumy and it's not until the end of October but I am not to bothered as I have said before my doc is great.

Right will leave you all to it as my new baby fluff ball is now here with us so will go and have another cuddle :)

Keep smiling :)

Hi Sue

Back again with your lovely new boy!

Don't you dare do too much now. As you have said. There are lots of family around to help and you will prob need it for a long time yet.

You sound really happy. That's good. I'm not too bad myself, thanks.

Thank you, isn't he just. he is so soft and fluffy. Luckily our 3yr old German Shepherd gets on with him good.

I still feel relatively good this morning apart from very stiff fingers and sore knees but they are easing now after an hour. I am hoping being a little more active with the pup will help the PMR but we will see :)
