Hi Val....glad to hear there is some good news for you and that your apetite(?) is returning. Hope things continue to improve for you. Mmmmm jam on toast sound great, not had that for ages, think it might be time for breakfast

Hi Val. It is great to see someone being so positive and seeing the good side of something which is seen as bad. Glad you enjoyed your toast and hope your appetite is returning properly.Christine0

Yes, Val, I found that too when I was on chemo. I was pleasantly surprised at how well my RA was behaving. It was about 8 years later, when I was put on methotrexate, that I learnt its primary use was as a chemotherapy drug.
Toast with jam sounds good to me. Keep up the good work.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
