I got my letter today I go for assesment on Thursday 27th and go in on the 4th September.I will be glad to have my fingers sorted out, on one hand. It is a start anyway. I know it is nothing like some of you have been going through with your THR's and knees.


Just as I got this good news I got some more news I've been to the Rheumy clinic today and got the results from tests I have been having. I have got RA in my shoulders and lower spine as well.

I had another steroid injection. In the meanwhile she said to up the Sulfa to 6 a day. Does that seem a lot?

    Good news Trish, it's good to get sorted :D:D

    I don't know if that's a high dose ..... but I'm sure others do and will come along to let you know.

    Good luck with the op.

    Hi Trisha,

    I am on 5 and so it probably isn't too high a dose and I hope that it will all soon help to bring it under control for you. Hey good luck with the opp as well :D . Take care Cris

    Hi Trisher
    I am glad you have the date. Will come round really soon so you'd better get reay :!: :wink: I am having a steroid jab in my hip bursa thingy the same day so I will think of you.
    No-one here would think you any less important than themselves whatever op you are having! I wouldn't fancy any one of them :!: :!:
    As soon as you are able you must let us know how you are doing.
    Very very good luck!

    Hi Trisher

    Good luck with your op, I'll keep my fingers crossed, hope you can do that soon. Hope the higher dose of sulfa helps too.

    Love
