kids loving the snow cause no school,Daniel was ill again yesterday after methtrexate, he goes back in feb some time cant remember will have to ring find out but
he dose have some f them sickness tablets so it gives me couple week see if they work,
a bit worried about him lately , he seems ok but he looks exsausted full spots and he never gets any colesores bags under his eyes so i have told him to stay in today and take it easy he really dose look tired, am i being a daft mum in thinking a child can be exsausted

Hi Tina, it's not daft thinking they are exhausted. My Jimmy (8) doesn't have RA and is often like a whirling dervish for a couple of weeks non stop and then all of a sudden he just conks out. He even gets whingy and tearful and we know it's just because he's burnt himself out and needs a rest - often when he's been running around with his cousins a lot. He then has a couple of quite days and is ok again. The methotrexate will make a difference to Daniel in terms of tiredness, particularly if he is sick too. Hope you are feeling ok.

well he is looking a bit better in his self today after having bit off rest but still getting the chest pains again, feel bit daft ringing nurse as last time she said it nothing but he still gets them occasionally surely that not normal for a child anyway think i should just book him in doctors be on safe side.

Dear Tina,
I would get Daniel checked, it may be asthma?
Much love,
Amanda

Hi Tina, my eldest son 12 has asthma and is often exhausted especially in the winter with cold and damp. A mom 'knows' when her child isn't right. Best to get them checked at docs if you are worried. My son has been sledging, but the cold has set his asthma off. I had to balance this against the good the fresh air and exercise would do him!!! Hoping I won't be up all night now!! I know it isn't the same as arthritis but I just wanted you to know I do un derstand.
Thinking of you

Hi Tina
I think you should get him tested
he may have asthma if his chest has been painful this long
he dosent sound the kind of child to moan
take care

Glad u got appointments sorted Tina, so good u can be there with Daniel too I agree with the others ~ mums usually know best, hope your pains improve too xx also think its very good idea to write things down, otherwise there's always that awful tendency to remember exactly what we really wanted to say on the way home  Love and hugs ~ Liz xxxxx

well i am starting to wonder what is really wrong with me,
is it carpol tunnel what they think?
I know i have complained about my arms for a long time but for the past months the bottom of my feet ache and some times when i stand its like ah, and when i get up in a morning adn struggle to walk down stairs but today i woke up and it was painfull to walk on not achy and at work some times when i stood it kept coming back sharply i am thinking should i be asking a doctor if any of this is connected i just hate to go and have a moan about my self when i spend enough time there kids kids so i tend to struggle on when i am ill, i just cant help but think is it connected.

HI Tina,
I think it would help if you kept a diary of all this pain, when and where you get it.
It does sound as if something is going on and if you keep a diary you might begin to see a pattern, or at least you will know exactly what to tell the doc.
Are you stiff on a morning or just painful feet?
You do need to get it sorted, you can't go on ignoring pain.
Love, Doreen xx
