I have done 2 gym sessions of 30 mins since last Thursday and went swimming on Sunday = swam 10 lengths..!

Can't believe it!! - after 6 months of such stress!!!!

Wow Darshin, that's brilliant I'm really pleased for you and so impressed, perhaps now you can get back to a version of your previously active life. Don't overdo it mind, really tempting to think you're superhuman all of a sudden and then end up in bed for the day. I'm afraid I'm very prone to this sort of behaviour and its not good for you!

I'm still trying to re-organise my version of normality and nothing's happening in the right order or when it should so I'm temporarily still running my business and learning a new job. Just waiting for the inevitable but if I can just keep that last plate spinning for a little while longer I might just make it. I tell you, if my life were a book it would be a page turner, just hope there's a happy ending!

Take care
Sara

You must be so happy to be enjoying these good days darshin, long may they continue

Hello All.

Haven't been on for ages..but basically because of good news for now. The combination therapy of MTX, SFZ and HCO seems to working pretty well for me.

I know the RA is still there but basically I live with mild pain and pretty good mornings now and manage to work full week - no pain killers.

Which is all unbelievable compared to a few months back when I thought it was all over for me..

Doing light exercise couple of times a week and thinking of long term plans again..

That's great news Darshin. I wondered where you were. Long may it continue.
