    Morning wonky.

    Sorry I have missed this thread :oops:

    I hope you are feeling better today.

    I don't have steroids but I do have days when I get depressed, I just blame arthur.

    A big hug from me too. (((((((())))))

    Wonky, you're not alone. I had awful depression with steroids last year to the point where I refuse to ever take them again. I was on 80mg a day for months and then had to taper the dose for 6 months. It was hell. It did help with the PsA even though that wasn't why I had to take them. I simply couldn't cope with the side effects.

    (((hugs)))

    HI everyone

    thank you sooooooooo mcuh for all the messages.

    means so much

    rheumy nurse rang tonight .... can restart MTX :D and ditch Leflunomide :D:D:D so hopefully rash will improve, arthur won't get worse, and I might be able to start lowering the steroids.

    dad's gone to bed early :oops: :oops: didn't realise I was that bad :lol::lol::lol:

    thanks again

    Thats great Wonkey. At last things are getting sorted. What a long time for them to get back to you. :(

    Fingers crossed that the awful rash goes asap.
