Been to see the rheumy nurse today and the good news is that I only have 11 tender joints ( 28 last time) and three swollen joints ( 9 last time) so humira is doing its job.lets hope bloods test are ok too.before hurmira my esr was 66 and crp 28 .asked about it wearing off into the second week and she said it can do that in the beginning and to see what I am like at my three month assessment but is pleased with the way it is going so far.
The not so good news is that they think I have a urine infection but I have no symptoms and temp not up so going to send sample to the lab and she said I may have to delay my next jab with is not until a week Tuesday .she is going to ring me and let me know so fingers crossed.

    Milly I am glad to see the meds are working for you, hopefully the longer you are on them the better they will work.
    But sorry they think you have a urine infection, if its not one thing its another...I hope the results come back clear xx
    Love

    I hope the test is clear or the infection clears up quickly. Good news about the humira though.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
