Subject: Hello

Hiya,
Not been on in a while so trying to catch up with older posts and thought i would give you guys an update went to see my consultant last week armed with questions etc... when i got there i found out my consultant is retiring grrrr bit annoying cos he was soo good so had to see another doctor thinking he had took over but No he is retiring too LOL anyway finaly got my meds increased to 20mg of mthtrex8 and was told to take my arcoxia for 3 weeks!
So fingers crossed should make me feel a bit better. Also enrolled at college this week to do an NVQ2 beauty Therapy course so feeling very postive about things at the mo.

Have struggled the past 6 weeks with me bones and with day to day stuff probably because had to do more with the kids being off school constant picking up toys and cleaning and entertaining so i am a slightly glad the hol's are over to have a bit of a rest lol Any one else felt like it ???
