    hi Tony just doing catch up i am so pleased you are happy with your appointment , it does help when you are taken seriously and if you can cope with the nasty bits of the meds that are going to help all the better , 10 month is a long time to be left in limbo x
    I know i am a lady ,all life is a journey xx MAY xx

    Hi Tony,
    Having to cope with exhaustion and fatigue is the pits isn't it? Trying to explain it to other healthy folks is nigh on impossible, because it's not a normal tiredness is it? Hears hoping that the meds work for you really quickly and you start to feel better and back to your dancing ways :grin: Hugs (((((()))))) X

    thanks Poppy hun. Yeah, it's rather strange just bring totally drained of all energy. I mean, with the OA I got extremely tired, with the pain and lack if proper sleep etc. this is a really different beastie indeed.

    I'm off to see the GP at four, will ask them about arranging a home visit next month for this ATOS thing that is really stressing me out :roll:
    Wish me luck :grin:

    Well the doctor was absolutely lovely. She is faxing ATOS today telling them I need a home appointment. At least I don't have to stress about that part of all of this.

    Really glad you ahd a positive response. Sulfa is okay but can give you a dodgy tummy- helps to take it in the middle of a meal-seems to make it less irritating to the gut. The luminous toilet times are interesting!
    Hope it goes well for you.

    yeah, have heard about the glow in the dark wee. Lol :lol:
    It's gonna be very confusing now, was bad enough anyway.. Have some tablets that I take on a morning before food, then some that I take with food and some after, all morning doses.. Lol
    To be honest,i just take them all together about half hour before food.. Same with lunchtime ingres, evening ones and night time ones. They don't make it easy. Lol
    I've a dossette strip with four spaces in, right now I can barely close them, I'll soon be adding another three per day.. I don't know how I'm going to sort them out. Besides, I don't eat regular meals even.. Haha
    I'm gonna be in about 27 tablets per day in a months time.. :shock: who needs food?
