anyone else having the joy of being woken up in the night with severe pain from flare ups? I only got diagnosed in may-24 and the middle of the night flares are horrific! Hot water bottle and co-codamol are the only things that dull it.

    Awww @HollyRebecca I do know the feeling luckily not so often in recent years. Going back we used to have two threads here. One night owls and one early birds where people online at silly times could chat and distract themselves. Online forums are not as popular as they used to be, but gosh it helped.

    There was a lady i just posted to @Wobblylegs who had a total hip replacement yesterday she was certainly awake at 3am!

    Take care and keep posting - it helps
