First Rituximab..
Well I finally had my first Rituximab infusion today after the debacle of the first attempt. No problems, feeling okay - bit stiff and tired for being sat over 6hrs but aside from that medically speaking all good. That said there were some issues, I had taken a friend with me (and fair enough hadn't

Has anyone else looked into post traumatic stress disorder and realise you have it!?
I came out of hospital in feb 2010 and have spent some time trying to research why I feel as I do! , I am getting on with my life but have realised I am definitely have PTSD, it is quite common after Icu , why should I be diagnosing myself, Icu saved my life, thank you, no follow ups though! That is

Ready for Week 7
I managed to complete W6 r3 last night. I started out thinking I may have to run/walk/run as I thought 25 mins may be too much for me. However I settled in to my run and all was going well, I agree with other bloggers that you do feel a bit abandoned by Laura as she leaves you alone for a while. However

Stamina: The 25 minute wall
It's a month since I graduated and I've drifted a bit, still running 3 times a week but just to my own music, unsure what my next goal should be. I gave B210k a go (was finding it 'challenging' ;-) ) but last week a cold stopped me running altogether - when I went out on Monday after a week's break

W5R1 - Switch on ?
Janda mentioned how this run doesn't seem as much of a test as some of the previous weeks and I have to agree. It's not that it's any easier, it isn't, it just seems that it's working, we're improving. I think Laura even mentions it in one of her pep talks. On that subject she's beginning to really

Happy hormones :D
It's been a while since I've posted, so a quick summary: Week 4, Run 3: Due to social commitments I had yet another morning run. Which I'd love to love, but they just ruin me. Got through it albeit a lot slower than W4R2 (I ran the same route and was about 150 metres behind where I was on the previous

Exhausted, exhausted, exhausted . . . I'm
so tired of it. I'm taking Plaqunil but it doesn't seem to help. Anyone have any other ideas? We are going to Disneyland in October and I'm going to need more pep and energy. Jean

Feeling discouraged :( Will I ever be fast(er)?
Well, I graduated about three weeks ago and now the initial sense of achievement had begun to ware off - I'm struggling not to feel really discouraged by my lack of speed :( It doesn't help that a couple of friends have graduates since and are merrily sailing along doing OVER 5K in 30 min - leaving me

EMDR anyone?
Hello fellow anxious people. I'm due to start a course of therapy called Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, EMDR, and was wondering if anyone had any experience of it? I'm hoping it is going to be the beginning of the end to my anxious ways as those that be believe my anxiety is PTSD. Anyone

Telling tall stories
My late husband lost his right leg in a traffic accident. He was very brave, and coped with his prosthetic leg pretty well, managing to play squash, ride a bike, and even to run a half-marathon. He didn't ever let his disability stop him doing anything he wanted to, although if washing the

Mind over matter...
I struggle today to know what the topic of this post should be.. To say W5R3 was more mentally challenging than physically is an understatement. I even mentally prepared myself today by reading as a distraction prior to tackling my nemisis... As I was approaching the run I could hear my inner

Must be a week for Ranting !!
My turns to vent now!! Please someone tell me how to handle a child who fears for herself Yes the Asthma's bad, but sometimes the psychology is a harder thing to administer when you have little/no experience. Does anyone have any tools/advice for getting a child motivated and ""back to normal"" after

Needing a bit of pep talk and perspective.....
Good evening everyone, I am felling pretty down today so I thought I'd come on the forum to vent a little of my frustrations. I am not sure if someone would remember me. I posted last year about my asthma triggered for the 1st time ever in Cairo where I worked and the hard decision I had to make about

Remember to congratulate yourself!
I wanted to pass on quite a simple idea, really, but it's one I've found helpful and I think its incredibly important: During recovery, don't forget to congratulate yourself for each step you take! After years of anxiety, I'm happy to say I function well in daily life nowadays, but I often

Vitamins, minerals and other self help ideas.
Hi, I have been prescribed Vit D and calcium by the hospital (as RA is a risk factor for osteoporosis.) And suddenly my nails are strong and no longer flaking! I also take fish oil capsules (as recommended by research done by ARUK), and my eyes are less dry. And I have started to take Vit B complex
