    Get back to sleep, if it helps, Colin. I hope you'll soon feel the benefit.

    Good luck with it, Colin, there's a chance you'll not be feeling so good in the next couple of days but hopefully that won't be the case. I hope it helps - but with ritux it's a long wait to find out if it does! You'll have your next one in two weeks' time, yes? I hope the infusion is going smoothly. DD

    Thanks alot for your kindness Hey av that was a big hug. Well im feeling sort of crap today feel so ill but little pain as the massive dose of steroids seems to have taken over. Back for my seconds in two weeks, if its anything like last years should be feeling better all round in about 6 weeks, the secret is taking it easy whilst the drugs do thier work !!! Well i'm going to the doctors shortly for the results of the liver test. I suspect the RA is affecting my liver. Im a little fed up with the whole thing NONO NO dont be getting soppy on me ill be back to normal in a few days. I seem to have gotten RA in all those parts you never thought possible. I remember those days when i thioought arthritis was pain that old people got. I think RA is hard for us sufferers to understand let alone people who dont suffer. I have it from head to foot including My Scull, Jaw, Voice box, Lungs, Probably Liver, and artry disease brought on by RA. Dont like cwriting all this stuff it must be scary for some people just starting out with RA i am reluctantly going to press the submit button now

    Everyone's RA is different Colin, and you've been dealing with it for some considerable time, haven't you? Perhaps in these days of newer meds and faster diagnosis it could be that those complications could become things of the past: let's hope so, yes?

    I know that it's possible to feel very rough after the infusion - I recall that tillytop had a terrible time recently after her first and she's not too bonny now either. The pumping-full-of-steroids is a necessary evil but it's not lovely, is it? I am sure you will start to feel brighter soon, rest as much as you need and bear in mind that the better times are ahead.
