Hi Guys

For as long as I been coming onto this forum now and again, nearly 8 plus years. The remaining long term members I see is us guys.

The were few other people who always posted and the forum was so much active sharing stories and helping each other with medication advice and even alternative therapies from Sean.

Hope every one is doing well anyways

Take care all

Hello Colin.

Awe bless you, Hope things get easy for you that's my prayer to you. I can understand your frustration.

I have R.A and Leg Ulcer to deal with and asking for help sometimes puts me off, because I have to rely on others, but I guess were all here for one and other that including family members and care workers.

You been very good with your advice on the forum about medication and stuff.

I do really hope things improve for you and family.

Take care Colin.

hi Suz , my leg ulcers have almost cleared after two & half years , about same time we been caring for my mother-in-law but need to be cleared for 12 weeks to get a joint done & need two knees & a hip done

my immune system gone into overdrive & pretty normal for my crp to be 60 to 120 & need steriods control it which is not good

I think all of us that has R+A or something similar for a long time will get to know alot about controling it , years ago they had RA sufferers giving talks to doctors about RA ,

I just hope next year will be better & start to get my life back after getting some joints done

take care
