Good morning

I have not been on much recently as I have finally moved into my new home :D

Im very slowly getting there, found out im not entitled to any form of help as I work :( oh well nothing I can do about that,

Still got this flare and its now getting worse,still off work at least till the middle of September, this flare is taking the shine of moving into our new home as I have not got anywhere near getting the house organised.

I have to get the letter sent to work about my health but really not got the energy,Oh well life carries on but sometimes being on your own really is pants

Have a good day everyone
take care

    I'm sorry about the continued flare, Lily, though moving house is acknowledged as one of the most stressful activities known to man - and woman :wink: - and stress does make us worse. Have you asked your rheumatologist about a tweak of meds?
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Hi Lily, Glad your moved into your home now! Moving house is the most stressful thing you will EVER do (Take it from an ex-estate agent!!) Sorry your flare up is still not being kind, I can't imagine how hard it must be for you being alone and having to deal with it, I'm so lucky having my OH I don't what I would do without him. I agree with Sticky maybe it's worth asking if you could increase or change meds so it will help a little with your pain?

    Hi Lily

    I'm new here, but you've all been so lovely, it's time to share that back. I'm so sorry to hear you're having such a bad time when you obviously want to just enjoy your new home. Such a stressful time moving house, even when fully healthy, so I'm not surprised you're feeling it.

    Sending hugs and best wishes x

    thank you all for the replies,

    I have been put back on meds but as we all know they take time to start to work, hopefully will get some relief especially since im away on holiday in a week,cant wait to just relax and let things slide a little

    Will need to chase up the surgeon again and try to see the consultant sooner

    Have a good evening
    take care
