thank you julie and iris.
i cannot imagine trying to bring up to children alone with arthritis, although i did bring up my eldest (now 11) for the 1st 6 years of her life because i to was left when i found out i was pregnant. at that time though my health was better, i had some problems my hip but nothing compared to how i am now!
i don't think my family (my mum, mil ect) will ever truly understand how hard things are but yes i do feel a bit better just for admitting how things are to my friends.
they've both offered to help with school runs and stuff which will be a great help. i have always felt guilty for asking for help, like i'm putting on them but i think now they made it very clear they are happy to help, so a huge weight has been lifted there to!

Hi Sue
AH!!
At last you will have some practical helpSounds like it feels good to have shared it with the family and that they are willing to help - that's great too
Have you been able to get an apt with the doc yet??

i'll have to wait until sarah goes back to pre school to get an appointment, hopefully her cold will be better and she can go tomorrow.
if she's better in the morning i'll be trying to get through to the dr's at 8am.

i saw my dr this morning, burst into tears as soon as she asked how i was! filled in the questionnaire and she's started me on tablets, not sure what they are called but hopefully things will improve.
i'll keep you posted!
thank you so much everyone for your support.
