    Thankyou all for your kind and helpful words. I am feeling a little less sensitive todat although still some pain and reduced mobility it is definately improving as using less pain relief again (dont like codeine based if I can help it).
    I had felt extremely suicidal over the weekend but you guys on here helped me negotiate around those feelings (not that I would carry it through as I couldnt do that to my family).
    My gynae pain has finally gone so thats one less thing to worry about :lol:
    Can I ask does anyone else find themselves feeling very self conscious and vulnerable with RA. I seem to feel very vulnerable and overwhelmed in silly situations like my kids arguing or confrontations outside. Maybe its just me. I never used to be like that in fact i used to enjoy a good showdown whne people were rude I had no problem in standing up fir myself now I quiver in a corner and cry. :oops:

    Anyway all that aside just a big thanks toeveryone who has left me a message.

    Love

    Hi Teresa,
    Vulnerable is my middle name. I feel quite fragile at times.But also life is too short to get involved in trouble so I am more laid back than I used to be. Things dont ruffle my feathers so much.
    So no you are not alone,
    Best wishes

    HI all Im feeling a bit better again today, managed to get out today my husband and I took the dog for a short walk this morning. It was very painful and I am resting for a bit now but it was so good tog et some fresh air.
    Today looks to be a good sunny day so I plan to sit in the garden for a few hours and hopefully tomorrow too. (lobster pink here I come :D ).

    THankyou all for your support I do have close friends but I dont think they really understand what Im going through although they do try. I dont think anyone could imagine the difficulties unless they have faced them themselves. Its also a bit embarrassing to be ill all the time I always worry they'lll get sick of me being sick so avoid burdening them with all my rubbish.

    My daughters made dinner last night which was lovely. :D:lol:

    LOve

    Ah Theresa!!

    Your family obvioulsy treasure you :D

    Just be a little selfish for a while and keep talking.

    I hope you continue the upward slope - hard work, but you are doing well.

    Love and best wishes

    Hello Theresa,
    Hope you're feeling better this morning.
    I've just received this, and I thought about you, and thought I'd share it.

    If I could catch a rainbow
    I would do it just for you
    And share with you its beauty
    On the days you're feeling blue.

    If I could build a mountain
    You could call your very own;
    A place to find serenity,
    A place to be alone

    If I could take your troubles
    I would toss them in the sea,
    But all these things I'm finding
    Are impossible for me.

    I cannot build a mountain
    Or catch a rainbow fair,
    But let me be what I know best,
    A friend who's always there..

    I think instead of 'I' and 'me' it should read 'us' and 'we', cos I think the whole site is batting for you.
