Woke this morning with the flare-up from Hell. Would have preferred it to be Ian McShane, but no, it was Arther.

Any support, hugs, good vibes gratefully received; have got about 5 weeks before we move house and need all the help I can get!

Thank you, pals!

Annie

    Annie, this is not good is it love?

    Can you get an emergency appointment, to see if anything can be done quickly, to give Arthur a good kicking.

    Rest as much as possible - not easy - and try to stay focused on your lovely new home. You have so overdone it on that front though, obviously.

    Know that I`m thinking of you with love..........Ange.

    Oh, lots of thanks to all you lovely people.......my over is positively whelmed!

    I have ramped up the pain meds and shoved up the steroids - I have to do that 'cos of GCA (Google?).

    Pred usually takes about 3 days to kick in with me, so if no better by Friday will ring Rheumy as I need her to know that I am putting up the Pred even more.............

    Have spent all day lying on the bed examining my conscience - can't think why, that isn't flaring! In between bouts of that have been formulating Plan B which is jumping in the river.

    Lots of love to you all, will call in again a bit later.

    Grumpmeister, I'm going for a grump, now!

    Oh Annie I am sending you a huge (((((((( )))))))))) and a mass of hope that it will soon stop and leave you alone. He is donning his very best nurse costume and is on his way with Little legs (who has been nursing me :wink: ) and they will be with you to help you feel better. He has some eggs for you and more slurps and healing bounces than you probably need.........

    Rally hope you feel better and less tied soon. love Cris xxx

    I wish I could bring you some real flowers to cheer you up, but here are some virtual ones.

    Dear Annie

    Sorry, I have had my family here and have only just logged on.

    I'm so sorry Annie that arthur came in the back door while you were busy and bit your legs.

    You did say the other day that your legs were hurting.

    Anyway, you get better soon. We are all here for you as well. Here is a bell if you want anything from the cafe just ring and we will take your order

    Lots of ((((((()))))
    Love Trish xxxxxx

    There is a bed for you to rest in, the cheese you can see is the bell to ring. You get better soon. These flowers are from the Forum garden.

    Managed a little walk about outside and sat outside for a little while. Still can't walk very far - or do much of anything really! I can enjoy that sun - and I am!

    Thank you all so much for your good wishes, will be back again a bit later.
