Hi everyone!

It's been a while since I came on the forums. I'm better than ever (mentally :P)! However I'm still untreated and aching but I've made my peace with it, and aside from some rare occasions, I don't even care for it :D
I feel that the more I keep in shape (nothing excessive of course) and sleep well, the better I feel in the morning (and when the summer sun wakes me up I couldn't be happier, like this morning ;)).

I still take tylenol on occasion and advil a couple times a week, when my "bamboo spine" doesn't cooperate hehe

So yeah, I'm doing well and trying to keep ahead Arthur by keeping fit/building muscle, just through sports/exercise no body-building hehe.

Hope you guys are doing well too!

    Hi Sunnyhours,
    Nice to hear from you :grin: great to know that you're dealing with your arthritis so well! good for you :grin: I'm off all my medication (Sulfasalazine,methotrexate,Humira) except for steroids as had a very bad reaction to one of the drugs which landed me in hospital needing oxygen and steroid drip :shock: not nice. I'm glad you're managing your pain well and long may it continue.
    Take care love and hugs ((())) x
