Morning everyone
OwI have woken this morning with neck and back pain and feel very stiff, but dont know why because I haven't done anything!
Over the past few weeks I have been really good, and managed to do lots of jobs in the garden and house but this morning its all come back. Why?
I am wondering if it is anything to do with the change in climate - it been quite chilly the past couple of days and wet!
Oh well I will have a cuppa and get the meds out-- I have loads to to today!
Cath0 -
Morning Cath, I am sorry that you have woken up feeling all stiff and in pain. Try and take things easier today if you can. I will join you with a cuppa as well.
Morning to everyone else that comes in today, hope you all have a good day, it does look lovelly outside this morning.
Karen xxKaren xx0 -
Thanks Karen,
Hope you are feeling ok today, well I have taken my pills and just waiting for them to kick in, I MUST attend to my front garden today, its a bit messy and it doesnt help that my next door neighbour has a garden that wouldn't look out of place at the Chelsea flower show. They are retired and spend everyday out in it if they can - mine will never be to that standard but at least I can try to make it tidy!
Just going to put the kettle on for another cuppa, would you like a top up?
Cath0 -
Oh, yes please Cath. I did some washing up and tidying and now I keep dropping of to sleep. Might go back to bed a little later for a kip. Dont forget to rest up yourself.
Karen xxKaren xx0 -

Cath I hope you dont overdo things in the garden....
Karen how are you doing with your new hip....we dont hear much about it...I hope you are not in to much pain

Yipee! I have managed to cut the front lawn - had to stop half way through though co of a very heavy shower, not done edges and weeding of borders though - need a rest and another cuppa - hate this having to be in and out cos of the showers, hey what will get done will get done and what doesn't will have to wait!
Cath0 -
Heres your toast with lashings of best butter and a nice coffee, Barbara. No I wont over do it today, promise! The aches have dulled a bit now thanks to the pills and I am now going to sit back for a while and rest - just been thinking I have done nothing active this week as I have been doing extra hours sat in front of a computer at work --- could that be the reason I was so stiff and achey this morning?
Cath0 -

Hi all,
I bet you are getting really frustrated Pamie, I know I am. Barbara, It's an effort to get into bed, get out of and generaly move. Still very weepy as well, thats me and the scar. But it's only just over a week ago.
Rich, did you see your specialist the other day, I do hope you got on ok.
Karen xxKaren xx0 -
Aww sorry to hear that pammy hope it repairs soon.
Yes saw cosultant .. told me he was stepping up MTX to 20mg .. told him of debilitating headaches and that as there was no nurses helpline i had gone to GP about them . He had given me co-dydramol . Consultant said nooo it interferes with the MTX and to ween myself off them and only take nurofen at £1.90 per pack . Jesus .. i'd be taking a pack every two days and can't afford that :O
Now on Naproxen as well :O
Not happy with appointment and have emailed to say that !
Said about hand issues and neck aches and he literally ignored me .. Next appt letter came this morning and is 29th September 2011 :O
No nurse helpline either
I feel a huge complaint letter coming on unless this is resolved
apart from that .. i am ok ... lol.. deal with TODAY for now

Thats a good way of thinking Rich, I'll do you a cuppa and you can sit by the window with me contemplating life.
