I'm not long back from seeing a G.P and having Steroid Injections. The Dr I saw is the specialist G.P in giving steroid injections at my surgery. He first went through my recent blood test results and all is pointing to that I'm still suffering from anaemia!! And that I'm suffering from a flare (surprise, surprise!) He could see the swelling thankfully so didn't need to have a poke and prod! So injected my left shoulder & hip. After he suggested because I'm suffering from a nasty flare which show's the medication I'm on isn't doing a great job I should suggest it's worth asking my Rheumatologist about giving Methotrexate ago. He's going to mention it in his report as a gentle prod he said. So next weeks Rheumatology appointment is going to be interesting!!
As I'm posting I would like to ask you kind people if you could be in my pocket for Tuesday's Rheumatology appointment please....Thank you.
