In the last two days I've been run over by the PDT...
Was just getting back on my feet so to speak after the whole sinus infection and WHAM.. This afternoon I was doing ok till about one, then I had to go lay down. I was out.. True definition of exhaustion..
It's to me the first of a couple of different signs of a flare :roll:
Then earlier this evening the hands started throbbing..
So, here we go again.. Lol

Right now, the hands, elbows, hips and knees are all having a flare party that I'm not invited to..

Bugger :roll:

Hope it ain't a nasty one

    thanks hun..
    No storm, but it would help clear the air here..
    Gonna take it steady, maybe it'll turn out to be just a mini flare eh?
    Painful fingers crossed haha..

    Just a thought, Tony. Have you finished your antibios? I'm just wondering if you have and the infection is still lurking and that's what's causing the flare. Whatever the cause, I hope it goes soon.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    thanks Sticky :wink:
    The Doc said to stop the anti biotics once I started to feel better. Not had any for a couple of days now.. Sinuses seem good.
    I do hope it's a likkle un :shock: :o:lol:

    leaving hugs and well wishes, let's hope it is a very short lived flare - Just thinking back, I remember stopping AB's with a sinus infection and it was still lurking and had to have a longer course, just Matron being Matron. :roll:

    I could not get out of bed this morning, it seems to be a common thing today, was meant to be at Mum's for 11 and there was I, half past 10, dozing away.

    You take lots of care. Med trolley is in action if needs be. 8)

    Hi there Buddy, I've been feeling yuk since yesterday, tired and heady, I put it down to how humid it's been for last couple of days. My head feels worse today a banging headache. So lets hope it's just the humidity and not warning signs of the PDT with following 'flare up'! With you it could be the effect's of coming off the Anti-biotic's? I hope it's not signs of a flare up buddy you've been put through crap for such a long time, you deserve a break from it. Take care matey boy, watch some daytime crappy tv and take it easy and rest up! I want Ra to get cosy on you and not move for several hours! so you can rest! Sending you & Janet big ((((HUGS))))

    Hope this passes quickly.
    Best joke I ever read, "With that information and a diagnosis of spondylosis, your doctor can develop a treatment plan‏" or back in reality totally ignore you. Is ok I have a sense of humour and a boxing glove, not defeated yet.

    thanks everyone.. Very kind of you all :D..

    I never did get the walloping with the rolling pin lol..

    I've taken it easy today.
    Only thing I did was watch my brother inlaw put an ariel up for us.. And I did that sat down lol.

    Hands are throbbing still, hips too.. Others keep joining in, but never mind... It will pass... My lovely pal knows how to end that sentence :wink:


    I'm chilled out watching stuff on the pc...
    Cheers one and all :D

    thanks girls :D
    I'm laid up this morning.. All joints are mucking around :roll:
    Just had another phone call from the lady at the job centre. This is basically another interview I should be attending... I'm still in the Work Related Activity Group so I'm obviously fit and able to get a job :shock:
    Anyway, she was really nice.. Asked me how I was and if anything had changed.. I almost laughed.. I told her that I was having yet another flare up. And that the most I've achieved recently is driving my Wife to work occasionally. Basically a thirteen mile round trip. Woohoo..
    I'm still waiting to hear about my appeal to be placed into the support group..
    :D

    Oh Tony, I think it's absolutely disgusting the way they are treating you. How the hell are you supposed to attend interviews, let alone get a job, when you're in a state of constant flare?!
    I hope they come to their senses soon, and put you in the support group.
    Thinking of you,
