Hi All,

Well Thank you for all your support and for taking the time out to log on and check out my new ramblings.

It's seems to off been a busy week so far, and with the weather so nice, I've been out and about with May. Finally been able to sort out the garden! It was in such a state. It now looks like a garden. May has not been well either, teething still!

I went to see my Rheumy yesterday, who has finally put me on a treatment course. They have given me Methotrexate and a dose of folic acid for after! I was originally going straight to my job from the hospital but because of the new treatment, I was required to have blood tests, X-rays of my hands, feet and chest and then get my prescription from the hospital pharmacy. What a joke! blood test queue was not too bad, so that was quick however, when I got to the x-ray department they advised that I could be waiting 2-3 hours! All I can say is thank goodness for my DS LITE. Then I went to the pharmacy and got chatted up by a really old guy who stood extremely close to me and then promptly started to tell me how although he's old and has 4 kids, he still enjoys the practice of making babies! YUCK! It really made me smile although I really was not in the mood for old dirty men, I did have to smile at his odd sense of humour.

So, I've taken my new tablet and am turning slightly paranoid about side effects, I'm sat here waiting for something I expect to feel like a brick (again..over imagination running wild!). Nothing so far.

Hopefully this beautiful weather will last a little bit more, if it does I will go quiet again as I will be out playing! If I'm on here more, then it's because a)I'm ill and bored b)Weather is naff, bored and May in bed!

Bye for now!

  1. I've heard good things about methotrexate - here's hoping it works for you.
