Hi

Been really ill with this damn cold (viral infection). It lasted alot longer since I have been on mtx.

Its been 9 days so far and the previous 2 days I have been awful. I think I am past the worst now - hopefully.

The cold weather has not helped as it's made my knees and hands ache on and off, particularly in the mornings.

I see the rheumy next thursday, so will bring it up then.

Have a pain free day, wrap up warm

Sci xx

    Hi,
    Snap. This cold has gone on and on, must be 5 or 6 weeks. Worst part was cough which wouldnt stop. Cured sore throat part by sucking an asprin as told by chemist only took a day to get rid of that. As you say, joints were worse both new knee and my old one (own). Think cold has mostly gone now so should be ok for Christmas. Last year we both had flu over Christmas so have had the jab to be prepared.
