    Spon/dil/o/arth/rop/ath/ee. Does that help? I don't have it, but I am firmly of the oipinion that a diagnosis always helps one to fight stuff. I wish you well. DD

    Hi again Holly!

    So sorry about your new diagnosis. If you haven't already, suggest you post on the Living with Arthritis forum because more peeps will see it there and hopefully there is someone else out there with this condition who can advise you.

    Love Tilly x
