How are you with this cold weather??
It is so cold here to-day, I am not looking forward to the next week with the forecast.
My pain is so so bad I am sure it is the weather as so many on here are saying the pain is a lot worse.
The most annoying for me are my hands they are so painfull and swollen.
Well you take care and wrap up well if you are going out.
xxxx Hugs for Lucas

Oh Davina sorry the Drs are being so negative about your weight loss. Speak to your gp and ask if they can help you at all. The fertility can be affected by weight as a neighbour had the same issue she lost two stones and fell pregnant without any help.
May be if you lost some of the weight they might have a change of heart.I wish you luck, don't give up!!!! Davina I have at long last move to a little village in the country. I moved in all this snow, but it was worth it. I am tired and hurting al over but I am so happy.
Take Care xxx

Hi Davina, we have moved to Hertfordshire i a tiny village. I have only been here for a week I love it already. I have a huge back garden and it backs onto farmland it is so pretty. It is a cottage and it is so homely.
It was hard moving but we had lots of help from the children. I am so sore but at least it is for a nice reason.
I hope you get some good news sometime this year.I will keep fingers and toes crossed.
Take care xxx

thank you hon, i started my diet last week and lost a few pounds so on the way. my son as been so ill was in hospital for 2 days due to his asthma again, he will need constant support to check it and another new drug to try to control it.
hope this works its not nice for him now he understands whats happening. pain is a little over the top i think because the worry and sleeping on a horrible painful bed x

Hi Davina, sorry to hear Lucas is not well again bless him. I suffer with asthma my son and two granchildren so I do know how scary it can be.
Lets hope the new meds will help him bless big hugs for him!!!!
Keep it up Davina and a few more pounds you might fall pregnant by yourself who knows, that is exactly what happened to my nephews wife. She had to lose two stone lost a stone and didn't need any help from the hospital.
You are bound to be in pain with all the stress. Keep your chin up sweetheart it will all come good!!!

Ladies you are an inspiration to me. I see the posts between you both and see the support you give each other (and the rest of us on here) I played two games on the Wii on saturday, went to Lakeside with daughter yesterday and only managed 3 hours before having to come home, today I feel like i'd run the marathon lol and then I see your posts and they pick me up so much. Davina I hope your little one gets better soon and you have all the luck you need for what you wish for in life, Marlene I'm so glad to hear that you are so happy in your new home may you have many many years there x thank you ladies xxx

Hi bsk I'm not too bad. Mornings are terrible at the moment with stiffness and feeling hung over weariness. once i get moving it's a bit better but the same old of too much moving and i'm tired again lol Humira is working well in comparison to how i was previously but noticed bit more pain creeping in again especially my feet which is a bugger given i need those quite often to do anything :) keeping going though and will be attempting working more days soon so i'll let you know how that goes.
hope you're well xxx

Hi Willis, I feel the same thing with the Enbrel, pain creeping up and have had to put my steroids up for a month. Not making a lot of difference at the moment. How are you going to manage working more days if things are not as good as they could be?

Hi b13 aka bsk :))
well it's hubby's business and i go in when i can but a member of staff leaving so me taking on their work. it should hopefully still only be part time but 4/5 days instead of 2 that i'm doing at the moment. If i'm not up to it i won't go in or i'll do a few hours. I'm lucky that i can do that, alot of others have to toil through work so whenever i feel like i can't do it i think about those that have no choice. doesn't make me feel any better but stops me feeling sorry for myself knowing it could be worse or i could be in even more pain. annoyed at the hospital as i was to get appt with nurse for end jan and the didnt' write and when i phoned all appts gone - now for 2nd march. so i've a feeling she will be getting the doctor involved in my next visit as the stiffness is getting worse. hey ho such is life and i'm still feeling better than i did before hand so we'll see :)
you have a good day xx

Hi Willis, you being able to juggle your work hours seems to be a good plan for you. Yes you may be more fortunate than others but hats off to you for working !! I guess it stops you from dwelling on the negative and gives you something to occupy yourself when you feel more able.You like me are not ready for that big armchair LOL.
I am glad you do still feel better.
I took a fall this morning but no lasting damage but it hurt like mad. My knee crunched and gave way on me just as I went to sit on the sofa.This is the second time this has happened I need to talk to GP but I am guessing OA may be to blame. Well hey ho at least no damage done.
Take care and have a good day yourself xx

Hi Willis, at least you will be working with someone who understands your health issues. That will help a lot. you could try ringing your hospital to see if they have any cancellations. Must do that myself for my eye appt lol! Very good a dishing out advice but not so brilliant at following it myself :)

Hi Davina, well done for the weight loss. I'm sure the occasional take away won't do you any harm. I hope the meds work for Lucas (love that name by the way.) I'm ok, just the usual stuff to deal with. Been seeing friends etc. this weekend which is a nice break from boring old day to day stuff. Keep going with the diet!
take care xxx
