    Hi Rob

    Well you are under immense stress and upset at the moment so I am really not overly surprised that you have mouth ulcers etc.

    Keep saying "onwards" - that is the way - it will all get better, promise.

    HI Rob

    Hope you get some help and your CRP comes down
    a lot, 33 is a high marker for inflammation.

    My CRP is only 8 at the last blood test
    whereas in July it was 145!!
    told that it was probably due to the Sjorgens overlap
    which is the dry eye thing that sometimes goes along
    with RA.

    You live and learn as they say. :roll:
